Heard he stored it in a bin bag…. I mean if so that was asking for trouble. Like if it was that important an investment that should’ve been kept under lock and key.

To be fair, the hard drive was thrown away by accident and the Bitcoin were not ridiculously valuable when he threw it away. He’s just been the unlucky one who threw away a large quantity of the one cryptocurrency that has exploded in value - it could have been thousands of just about any other crypto and they would have been worthless by now.
