This is an another great historical lost of bitcoin. According to Howell, it was his girlfriend that threw the harddisk into the waste in 2013. And he has been searching for it for 12 years. And he has used different devices plus planning robot to search for it but no avail and finally gave up the search. And right now that bitcoin price is on the peak, the 8,000 BTC he lost would hit very big amount. This is a very painful lost and he never forgive the girl.
It's loss, it's done and he will never recover it.If any news relates to this man, it is noise to hype the market but if we look at it in another view, we can see his loss as a free lesson and warning to all people who have bitcoins about importance of backing up their Bitcoin wallets properly. Similarly to all people who are outsiders and don't have bitcoins yet but have kind of interest and intention to purchase bitcoin.
Absolutely. If you're interested in cryptocurrencies, you must take all necessary security measures, otherwise, you'll be the one who loses. Even if you've been searching for what you've lost for so many years, you might not be able to find it.
This news might have been just a publicity stunt from the start; we'll never know. There's a huge loss, and now they have to accept it.
In the long run, the more Bitcoin is lost or becomes unattainable, the greater the impact on the price. Losses from early investors like these will be significant
