In the UK, a man accidentally dumped a hard disk containing 300 billion won worth of Bitcoin in the trash.
I asked for them to be able to dig up the landfill, but it seems difficult to find it again.
<Oh! Click> The third search term is'a man who threw 300 billion won'.
Howell, an IT industry practitioner, began mining Bitcoin in 2009.
At the time, the value of Bitcoin was much less than it is now, so Mr. Howell did not pay attention to storage.
Then, in the summer of 2013, the hard disk containing bitcoin was accidentally dumped in the trash.
The number of bitcoins that Mr. Howell lost is 7,500, worth 300 billion won by market price.
Lately, Mr. Howell asked the authorities to be able to search a landfill where the hard disk is believed to be buried, and if he found the hard disk, he would donate about KRW 79 billion, 25% of the bitcoin price, to the Corona 19 relief fund. Revealed.
However, the authorities did not accept the proposal, saying that environmental protection issues and the process of rehabilitation after digging a landfill would incur astronomical costs.
Netizens responded by saying, "How about living the whole landfill land?"
