最新报道:James Howells, the British IT engineer who lost a hard drive containing 8,000 BTC in 2013, denied reports that he abandoned his 12-year recovery effort. He clarified that after Newport City Council ignored his $33-40 million offer to excavate the landfill, he shifted strategy but maintains legal ownership of the bitcoin per a High Court ruling. Howells now plans to tokenize his claim through Ceiniog Coin (INI), a Bitcoin Layer 2 smart token launching post-October, backed by the lost BTC's value. The token aims to fund a payment-focused Web3 ecosystem while preserving his ownership rights over the $915 million in stranded bitcoin.
