James Howells from Newport, Wales, has offered his city council a 25% cut of his 7,500 bitcoins if it allows him to excavate the landfill where he threw it away in 2013.
Fast forward, and at the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at around $37,000, and his store would be worth in the region of $275 million. After visiting the landfill, Howells told the BBC he thought he had "no chance" of retrieving his hard drive. However, he now has a new plan to find it. "The value of the hard drive is over £200m , and I'm happy to share a portion of that with the people of Newport should I be given the opportunity to search for it. Approximately 50% would be for investors who put up the capital to fund the project, and I would be left with the remaining 25%," he added.

Since he threw the hard drive in the trash, isn't it technically by law now the property of the sanitation department?!

Does he sleep at night? Those 200 millions must have been keeping him awake all night
I saw this
I mean, he's telling you theirs a chance.
Contrast this with losing a credit/bank card or wallet/purse. Amazingly convenient this *great currency of the future*!
Damn
It's gone

Many of these ads post appearing of late, so it wouldn't be crazy to think it's just fear mongering.
Oh snap... I feel so safe with CelsiusNetwork managing my funds rather than doing it myself.. Don't want to be this guy, that's for sure. Good luck Bitcoin treasure hunters!
