Perhaps this guy was more fortunate than a guy named James Howells, a guy who earned himself 7,500 Bitcoins in 2009 when they were almost worthless. By 2013, a Bitcoin worth £ 613, or 7500 bc, will give Howells about £ 5 million. Equivalent to more than 110 billion. However, one day Howells threw away a hard drive containing information about the bitcoin 7500 - which is worth a lot of assets.
