James Howells

32 year old James Howells an IT specialist who is now a full time cryptocurrency investor, told his tragic story to New York Post that he had lost bitcoin worth more then $100 Million now and he never got it back.

7,500 BTC

James Howells told the New York Post in 2009 the year when bitcoin was below $1 at that time hash power of bitcoin was extremely low because of the lack of mining.James mined more than 7,500 bitcoin just in a week he used a simple GPU mining for this purpose.

And in 2013 price of BTC suddenly jumped to $100.James feels excited and started searching his thumb drive in which he stored his private keys to the BTC.But after he checked the thumb drive he recalled that he throwing away the Drive that he used to store private key of BTC instead of empty thumb drive.

He told New York Post that.
"I mined more then 7,500 coins in a week's time in 2009; at that time there where just six of us mining bitcoin.and it was like the early days of a gold rush.Four year later, I had two hard drives in a desk drawer. One was empty, and the other contained my bitcoin privet key.I meant to throw away the empty drive and I accidentally threw away the one with the bitcoin information."

Now everyone know how worthy is bitcoin among other cryptocurrencys but we should take responsibility over own funds it will eliminate the possibility of accidentally losing it.
