James Howells, an IT worker from Newport, Wales is definitely not having a good start to 2018. Whilst the boom in Bitcoin value in late last year led many investors to put a lot of money into the cryptocurrency, for this man, it led to utter distraught.
Howell had purchased 7500 Bitcoins back in 2009, for very little money, before he decided to store them on his computer’s hard drive. He quickly forgot about them, and threw his computer, along with it’s hard drive into the bin after spilling a drink over it.

I really feel for this guy, hopefully he can find his hard drive but probably not... yeap, do not be stupid in this world! :)
