Bitcoin miner James Howsell recalls the horrific experience of accidentally throwing away a flash drive containing access to an $800 million Bitcoin wallet.
He said in a recent interview that he unconsciously threw the flash drive into a rubbish bin, even after having doubts about it.
This act of throwing away the flash drive was his first experience in which he had lost the flash drive that contained a file vital in gaining access to the wallet.
Besides, he disclosed that he had gone through all lengths to recover it, but it looks almost hopeless.
“There is a specific file stored on the hard drive, without the file, there is no way of getting the Bitcoin back“, he added.
