Halfina Eddy-Evans hit back at James Howells' claim that she was responsible for mistakenly throwing away a hard drive with 8,000 Bitcoin.
Halfina denies responsibility for accidentally chucking out James Howells’ hard drive The ex-girlfriend of an IT engineer who claims he lost a hard drive containing a now-vast Bitcoin fortune 15 years ago has spoken out about her role in the incident for the first time. Halfina Eddy-Evans was living with James Howells, 39, in Newport, Wales , when he began using his computer to ‘mine’ the digital currency in its early days.
Halfina says she hopes James finds the hard drive as it ‘will shut him up’ ‘I had no idea what was in it but I reluctantly dropped it off at the local tip on the way home from going on the school run. ‘I thought he should be running his errands, not me, but I did it to help out. Losing it was not my fault.’ Halfina, who has two sons with James, said she sincerely hopes James finds the drive because ‘it will shut him up’. She added: ‘I’d love nothing more than him to find it.
