TechFlow news: British computer expert James Howells accidentally discarded a hard drive containing 7,500 bitcoins and has now launched legal action to compel Newport City Council to allow him to search the landfill site.
It is reported that a group of hedge fund investors is funding Howell's potentially costly lawsuit. If Howell successfully recovers the lost BTC, the investors will receive a portion of it. In addition to financing the upcoming High Court litigation, the hedge fund investors have also assembled a team of search experts and data recovery engineers.
