In 2013, James Holmes, a young man from the British city of Cardiff, was cleaning his house when he thought it was junk and threw one of his hard drives in the trash without thinking. The hard drive contained all the data of 8,000 thousand bitcoins he had collected over the past five years.
A few days later, when he found out the truth, James was shocked that the value of these coins was then 9 million dollars, by which time the hard drive had been buried in a vast and spacious garbage dump outside the city.
Since then, poor James has been looking for his hard drive, but the administration has stopped him from searching the entire place, saying that this will severely damage the natural environment.
James is now trying to buy the entire garbage dump, as the value of his 8,000 bitcoins has increased to about 800 million dollars, which in Pakistani currency is more than 2 trillion 24 billion 800 million rupees.
