The person who originally sent the broken transactions deleted his wallet
Sigh... why delete a wallet instead of moving it aside and keeping the old copy just in case?  You should never delete a wallet.

For sure he has a backup. Somewhere...

Ironic that right after creating this thread you proceed to shred your wallet so no one can help diagnose your problem.

This is one of the few reasons why I do not believe him, I think he only want some btc in donation.



it is also possible that he lost them or forget password or destroyed those bitcoins
i don't think he own that much bitcoins right now, and no one has wallet address of satoshi that are supposed to holding thousands of BTC

AFAIK he created a new address for each of the block rewards he got.
So I don't think it's possible to find a single address with all that coins.
If it was it would have appeared in the Bitcoin Top 10 rich list by now.


Yes, of course. Because it was normal to create an address for each transaction, also for a question of privacy and anonymity. I think he has a wallet wit a 'lot of address' or a couple of wallet (who knows?).
