英国男子的竞标获得许可证搜索垃圾填埋场的丢失比特币硬盘被拒绝

一名英国男子的竞标要求获得垃圾填埋场的硬盘驱动器（将私人钥匙拿到8,000比特币）被英国上诉法院拒绝。

A UK man’s bid to obtain permit to search a landfill for his hard drive—holding private keys to 8,000 Bitcoin (BTC)—has been rejected by the UK Court of Appeals.

一名英国男子愿意获得垃圾填埋场的硬盘驱动器的许可证（持有8,000比特币（BTC）的私人钥匙）被英国上诉法院拒绝了。

"Appeal request to the Royal Court of Appeal: refused," Howells said in a March 14 X post. "The Great British Injustice System strikes again … The state always protects the state," the early Bitcoin adopter added before revealing his "next stop" would be the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR).

豪威尔斯在3月14日X帖子中说：“向皇家上诉法院提出上诉请求：拒绝。”早期的比特币采用者在揭示他的“下一站”之前补充说：“伟大的英国不公正制度再次袭击……国家总是保护国家。”

UK Royal Court of Appeal Judge Christopher Nugee knocked back Howells’ application, stating that there was no “real prospect of success” and there was “no other compelling reason” as to why it should be heard, according to a March 13 filing shared with Cointelegraph.

英国皇家上诉法院法官克里斯托弗·恩格（Christopher Nugee）击败了豪威尔斯（Howells）的申请，并指出，没有“真正的成功前景”，并且根据3月13日与Cointelegraph共享的文件，关于为什么应该听到的“没有其他令人信服的理由”。

Nugee’s decision follows an earlier dismissal on Jan. 9 from High Court Judge Andrew Keyser, who similarly said there was “no realistic prospect” of Howells’s case succeeding at a full trial.

Nugee的决定是在1月9日对高等法院法官安德鲁·基瑟（Andrew Keyser）的较早解雇之后，他同样说，豪威尔斯（Howells）在全面审判中取得成功的“没有现实的前景”。

In a note to Cointelegraph, Howell said his “last legal option” to exhaust is at the ECHR—where he will claim that the UK High Court and UK Court of Appeal breached his right to property and right to a fair trial under Article 1 of Protocol 1 and Article 6 of the ECHR.

在《 Cointelegraph》的一份说明中，豪威尔说，他对排气的“最后法律选择”是在ECHR上，他将声称英国高等法院和英国上诉法院违反了其财产权，并根据《协议1》第1条和ECHR第6条的第1条进行了公正审判权。

The ECHR cannot overrule a UK court decision—however, a verdict in Howells’ favor would call on the UK courts to consider whether its legislation was interpreted in a way that is compatible with the ECHR’s provisions.

ECHR不能推翻英国法院的裁决，而霍威尔斯（Howells）对霍威尔斯（Howells）的支持的判决将呼吁英国法院考虑是否以与ECHR的规定兼容的方式来解释其立法。

In a separate statement shared with Cointelegraph, Howells said he would be filing a claim to the ECHR in the “coming weeks.”

在与Cointelegraph分享的另一份声明中，豪威尔斯说，他将在“未来几周”中向ECHR提出索赔。

The court filings follow repeated rejections from the Newport City Council allowing Howells to search through the Docksway landfill—where Howells’s former partner disposed of a bag containing the hard drive at the site in 2013.

法院文件遵循纽波特市议会的一再拒绝，允许豪威尔斯搜索迪克斯威垃圾填埋场，霍威尔的前合伙人在2013年在该地点处置了装有硬盘驱动器的袋子。

The council previously stated that it would not grant permission for the search as it had no legal obligation to do so and it would be "excessive" to allow members of the public to sift through the vast amounts of rubbish collected over the past 10 years.

该理事会先前表示，它不会允许搜查，因为它没有法律义务这样做，并且允许公众成员在过去10年中收集的大量垃圾中筛选大量的垃圾是“过多的”。

Howells’s 8,000 BTC is worth around $660 million at current prices.

豪威尔斯（Howells）的8,000 BTC的价值约为6.6亿美元，目前价格为6.6亿美元。

While few predicted Bitcoin would reach such heights back then, Howells’s incident highlights the importance of properly securing self-custodied crypto funds.

尽管很少有预测的比特币能达到当时的高度，但豪威尔斯的事件突显了正确固定自我养成的加密基金的重要性。

Howells is also running out of time, as the Docksway landfill is set to close sometime during the UK’s 2025–2026 financial year, according to BBC News.

据英国广播公司新闻报道，豪威尔斯的时间也没有时间，因为据英国广播公司新闻报道，迪克斯威垃圾填埋场将在英国2025-2026财政年度的某个时候关闭。
