James Howells is a 32-year-old man from Wales who started working with Bitcoins from a computer in 2009. A year later, he disassembled the device and stored the pieces in a drawer, and finally threw them away.

Because several years of junk are now on top of the valuable but discarded hard drive, recovering it is an expensive process, and the condition of the hard drive is unknown. However, the reason why the ramifications of this failure became especially evident this year is that estimates suggest that the hard drive and the Bitcoins it contains are worth more than $ 100 million at today’s prices.

Howells, has not given up cryptocurrencies. He is still active with them today and puts his energies into the new ones of the market.
