Fortunately can not be achieved, unfortunate can not be rejected. This is what James Howells experienced. He accidentally dumped a collection of bitcoin worth trillion rupiah. Bitcoin was obtained Howells from the "mining" of the digital currency is four years and he managed to collect 7,500 bitcoin. Based on the "exchange rate" today, Sunday (10/12/2017), bitcoin is worth 105 million US dollars or equivalent to Rp 1.4 trillion. The Bitcoin collected Howells using a laptop since 2009. In 2013, Howells stopped collecting bitcoins. The laptop was sold to eBay because it was damaged. However, he still keeps the laptop hard disk because it still works and is stored in the drawer of his house. The private key of 7,500 bitcoins is stored on the hard disk and he hopes one day the value is very high. In mid-2013, he cleaned the room and hard disk was included items that also wasted.
He did not realize the valuable device was put in the bin and then transported officers to the final dump. Realizing his omission, Howells was immediately looking for the hard disk. However, his efforts were fruitless. The hardware is buried like a treasure in a Newport landfill. The final waste disposal site in Newton, UK, where hard disks that store bitcoins worth Rp 1 trillion are buried. (TheSun) The final waste disposal site in Newton, UK, where hard disks that store bitcoins worth Rp 1 trillion are buried. (TheSun) Howells did not immediately give up. He contacted the local government to get permission to find the hard disk. Unfortunately, he did not get permission. "I have not really tried to look for a hard disk because I have not been granted a license despite the financial collateral and involve the city council a few times." Digging the dump is not as easy as digging a hole in the ground, "Howells said. The Newport government said they had contacted the authorities to help Howells. However, the authorities do not approve of it after considering the very high cost and environmental impact caused. Although his request has been rejected by the city council, Howells is still hopeful.
He believes the relevant parties will give permission to look for the hard disk along with the increase in bitcoin prices. Howells also continues to monitor the existence of the missing bitcoin because it could have his hard disk found by people and transferred to another account. To date, Howells still believes the hard disk is still buried in Newton's landfill. Bitcoin is a virtual money that emerged and developed since 2009. Bitcoin can be analogous to "gold mine". Miners are those who dedicate their computer resources to solve mathematical problems, through "heavy" calculations. The miner in question may initially be just someone with a home computer. But today, the bitcoin mining process is done through a specially designed and collective device (called a node).
Every 10 minutes, the bitcoin system will assign a number of bitcoin units (25, for example) to one of these miner nodes. The amount mined per 10 minutes will decrease over time, until it runs out in approximately 2140. With the total amount of bitcoin that can be mined as many as 21 million units. Bitcoin prices are fluctuating and increasingly high each year. For that, many who use it as a means of investment, including James Howell. When it first appears, the value of one bitcoin is very low. In early 2011 alone the value of one bitcoin is only equivalent to 1 US dollar (about Rp 13,000). However, recently bitcoin prices had reached 15,000 US dollars or about Rp 203 million per chip.(@remond)
