A Welsh man’s plea to excavate a landfill where he believes his hard drive, which contains$ 676 million in Bitcoin, was dumped more than a decade back was turned down by the UK Court of Appeals. &nbsp,

A picture of the pertains prosecutor’s decision, which is last, was posted on Friday by James Howells on Linkedin. The software engineer who discovered the missing Bitcoin in 2009 has engaged in a lengthy legal fight to gain access to the garbage where he believes his currencies may be buried, and he has also thought about purchasing the spare site. &nbsp,

However, Howells now intends to file his case with the German Courts of Human Rights after having exhausted all of his lawful options through the U.K. court system. &nbsp,

The Great British Injustice System “hits again… Moral of the Story” Howells wrote in a Linkedin write-up,” The state constantly protects the condition.” ” Next stop: ECHR” .&nbsp,

When his ex-partner tossed the system out in 2013, Howells lost the hard drive with the codes to 8, 000 Bitcoin. CoinGecko data indicates that Bitcoin’s cost peaked that year at approximately$ 1, 130. &nbsp,

But, since then, the value of those flung tokens has increased enormously. At the time of publication, Bitcoin was trading at$ 84,500, or more than 7000 % higher than its highest level of 2013 ( price ). &nbsp,

One of the first Bitcoin believers, Howells, has discovered a fortune-changing value from his holdings. However, his case also highlights a common occurrence for many crypto enthusiasts: the problems of keeping one’s own bitcoin in a safe place. &nbsp,

In a text to R. Howells Hon. The Bitcoin owner’s appeal was turned down by Lord Justice Nugee of the U.K. Court of Appeals because it lacked “any real chance of success.”

Harris refuted the jury’s assertion in a statement he shared with on Friday. &nbsp,

He declared,” The British creation wants to push this under the floor, and I will not let them.” No matter how long it takes, it will not go ahead!

Although Howells claimed that he has a lot of time to combat his case, time is running out to recover his hard pull. &nbsp,

According to the draft budget of the local government that controls the Welsh garbage, the site, which is nearing its capacity, will likely be shut down during the 2025-26 fiscal year. &nbsp,
