Man who lost $780 million in Bitcoin in a landfill now wants to buy the entire dump before city closes the site

With his monkey paw luck, he'd find it just as Bitcoin crashes and loses nearly all value somehow

Compacting at a landfill however ….
Dumped out of the truck into probably another sorting area where machinery pushes through it potentially prying out large salvage pieces for scrap, or destructively breaking it apart by driving through and over it.
Over, and over, and over, and over.

Yeah, but if those Bitcoin were "out there somewhere", and you'd never have to think about money ever again if you found them...

That takes some effort to work into foreplay, especially with the voice.

I sold mine for about $1,000 each and never looked back. It was free money. I would have never held them past $2k, much less 100k

yeah i lots dozens. and i have an SSD that died with the keys to 5 more. I'm not losing sleep over it

You'd be surprised what's recoverable, especially if it's an HDD.
There was a recovery service I could send customer drives to that could recover a drive in a fire, flood, buried, shattered etc. The question was, how much did you want to pay for the service. One quote came back over 75k.

Actually, yeah, it's pretty fun for what it is. 78% Rotten Tomatoes/76% User Score, for reference. 7.0 on imdb.

That thumbnail though, lmao.

He'll find it just before the end of his life, having ultimately spent $700,000,000.01 to succeed.

Oh, you’re right—forgot the /s. Clearly, a $780 million treasure buried under bureaucratic arrogance and greenwashing isn’t a tragedy. It’s a comedy! Who doesn’t love watching late-stage capitalism turn potential fortune into landfill fuel? Peak entertainment.
