A 39-year-old man from the United Kingdom has been blocked by the courts from searching for his $750 million Bitcoin fortune in a landfill. James Howells lost a hard drive with the Bitcoin stored well over a decade ago and has been fighting his local council to hunt for it. He believes it’s in a landfill in his city, Newport, but the council has stated the search would have environmental risks. The hard drive that contained the cryptocurrency was thrown out, with Newport Council in conversation with Howells since 2013.
