This is clickbait AI article, you can clone the drive with "dd" on linux or other forensic tools that are used to copy drives at bit level, the drive itself does not "know" that you cloned it. You can have infinite tries by cloning the drive even if you fail. Fake news.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 $𝟖𝟎𝟎 𝐌𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐏𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐝 𝐌𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞 🧠💀

German programmer Stefan Thomas owns 7,002 $BTC — but can’t access them. Why? He lost the password.

🔐 Stored in an IronKey drive with only 10 password attempts
❌ He’s already used 8 tries
⏳ Only 2 attempts remain before the $800M fortune is permanently encrypted

He refuses to guess again without certainty.
His story echoes a brutal crypto lesson:
In decentralization, there is no "forgot password" button.

💡 Even with tech experts offering help, the drive remains locked.
Stefan's caution may cost him everything — but it’s also saving him from total loss.

A cautionary tale for every crypto holder.
