Is it really only possible to hold onto Bitcoin by losing the password or by getting into a sewing machine?
A big brother spent 6,000 yuan to buy 2.5 BTC in blockchain back in 2013. Except for withdrawing some to sell for a friend's singing in 2016, he hasn't touched it since.
But later, he didn't take it seriously. When the coin price rose, he could only find an AES backup wallet file.
Simply put, this brother researched for a long time and couldn't recover the wallet data from this file. After multiple unsuccessful attempts, he found us.
After this brother came to our office, he logged into his email here, downloaded the wallet file, and performed a local recovery.
I went through this brother's blockchain email records and found that things weren't that simple.
First, although the file was fine, this brother misremembered the password and provided the wrong password clues.
Secondly, this wallet file has a total of three addresses, not just one, which increases the filtering process.
Now the problem is to crack the password and find the wallet with money.
Fortunately, the password for the brother's wallet wasn't complex; it was cracked in less than an hour.
However, when importing the first wallet, I was expecting something big, only to find it was an empty wallet.
It's impossible not to feel lost when 1.2 million turns to 0.
Then he continued to explore the second wallet—inside the second wallet, there were a complete two BTC.
Do you think this efficiency is acceptable?
Then came the exciting moment of distributing the coins. Of course, we gave the big brother his share first; he had waited for 12 years and finally reached this moment!
This brother is indeed impressive, and he has great luck. He held onto it for 11 years; the initial 6,000 yuan has now turned into 170,000 USD, with a return of 200 times.
The brother almost gave up before, as the chance of extracting 2 BTC from a 704B wallet file was almost negligible.
But luckily he found me, and we finally succeeded in recovering it.
I can't help but wonder: is it really only possible to hold onto BTC by losing the password or by getting into a sewing machine?
If you or someone around you has lost cryptocurrency assets, feel free to message me. I can help you assess it, with no upfront fees; we only share the recovery fee.
If you have assets stolen or scammed, you can leave a comment or message me. I plan to create a mutual aid rights protection group.
