The story is very old too, I remember first hearing it back in 2012 when Bitcoin had only been around for a few years, and the market value were no more than a couple of hundred bucks.
Already back then this mysterious man who for some reason threw away his PC with the only backup of his wallet, wanted to search for it at the dump.
Heck this story likely has several copycats too because the original I think was somewhere in England, but there's been similar stories in several other countries too. Dump owners will try anything to sell their worthless land before the government shows up and force them to clean up the pollution.
