court denies access to landfill in bitcoin recovery case

James Howells, an IT engineer from Newport, Wales, has lost a legal battle to recover a hard drive containing 8,000 Bitcoin, valued at over $750 million, which was accidentally discarded in a landfill in 2013. The Newport City Council denied access to the site due to environmental concerns, and a judge ruled that Howells' claims had "no realistic prospect" of success. Despite the setback, Howells remains determined to explore alternative methods to recover his lost fortune.

Oh man! The server rejected the attempt to reconnect. The only option now is to reload the page, but be prepared that it won't work, since this is typically caused by a failure on the server.
