James Howells is considering purchasing a landfill in Newport, Wales, where he believes his Bitcoin hard drive, estimated to be worth about $598 million, is buried. This hard drive was mistakenly discarded in 2013, and after a decade of legal struggles, a High Court judge recently dismissed his case against the local council for access to the site. The council plans to close the landfill to turn it into a solar farm in the financial year 2025-26. Howells is surprised by the timing of the closure as the council cited community impact concerns in court.
