Never give up! British man who mistakenly threw away 8000 BTC speaks again: plans to buy the landfill for excavation, already discussed with investors

James Howells, a British man and IT engineer, mistakenly discarded the 8,000 BTC hard drive as garbage in 2013, and since then his repeated attempts to excavate the dump have been rejected, and now it is rumored that the dump is about to close, does he still have a chance to recover BTC? (Synopsis: miserable!) The dump where the British man mistakenly lost 8,000 BTC will be permanently closed, and the resignation spent 12 years to dig is still empty) (Background supplement: 8000BTC hard disk lost in the garbage dump can not be retrieved, British man told the government: pay me 647 million magnesium) In 2013, James Howells, a man and IT engineer in Newport, UK, mistakenly discarded a hard drive with 8,000 BTC (worth less than £1 million at the time) as garbage, and these BTC are now worth more than $780 millionIn order to retrieve BTC, the man constantly tried to find the hard drive from the landfill owned by the Newport City Council. However, the city council has long rejected the man's requests to dig up landfills on the grounds of environmental permit restrictions. To this end, James Howells even sued the Newport City Council, offering to dig up the landfill on its own without the City Council bearing the cost, promising to give the City Council a 10% return if it successfully recovered BTC. But the lawsuit was ultimately dismissed by the court in December, deeming his case "unlikely," and now James Howells is even more desperate that, according to the BBC, Newport City documents indicate that the landfill is expected to close in 2025-2026, leaving only the municipal household waste recycling center in the north to continue operating. James Howells plans to buy the dump However, just after everyone thought that the dump was closed and James Howells could no longer recover his lost 8,000 BTC, according to the British "Guardian" reported later yesterday (10), James Howells currently said that he intends to buy the landfill: The City Council claimed in the High Court that if the closed dump allowed me to search hard drives, it would have a huge negative impact on the citizens of Newport. But now, they are planning to close the dump. I had expected the closure of the dump to come in a few years, but I didn't expect it to be so soon. If the council agrees, I may be interested in buying this dump now, and I have discussed this option with investors, which is entirely a direction to consider. James Howells reportedly met with city council representatives in 2013, but has since been ignored. For the past decade, he has devoted himself full-time to the search for hard drives, and if the hard drives are successfully recovered, the agreement he has reached with investors will allow him to get back 30% of BTC, with the rest distributed to team members and the city council. City Council spokespeople have responded that they follow a strict monitoring and reporting system, consider James Howells' claim arguments "weak" and criticize Howells for diverting focus and wasting public resources, but James Howells said he will persevere unless the court determines that he has no right to recover, and he is ready to go to the Supreme Court to see the case to the end.
