Well, I like your offer, but I only lost some satoshis.
The amount of electricity I used to type this message is probably already worth more.
I started two years ago on this forum with the absolutely same topic - finding the lost satoshis in the blockchain.
The only difference was that I did not lose them.
Precisley, but I know the syntax of the let's say brainwallet I lost.
I know the contents, but not the exact sequence of the possibilities.
Therefor I think I got a good chance.
I like to get them back and learn from everything in the journey to reach that goal.
I already learnt some python and want to see how far I can get on my own.
I prefer to use C++.
Why? Is it more efficient?
Unless those satoshis become valuable enough to do so.
No chances.
Since I'm a delusional bitcoin obsessionist I think a bitcoin could become worth a house.
In my mind they eventually become valuable enough for other people to retrieve them.
edit: It's not just a few satoshis, but it's less than a full bitcoin
But I also disagree for other reasons. For me they are already valuable enough to retrieve.
Value doesn't necessarily have to mean money.
Just like other people have hobbies which costs money.
I also do metal detecting as a hobby.
Spending hundreds of hours on a field in the hope I find a gold, silver or tarnished copper coin.
There are thousands of people doing the same thing and never earn back their metal detector in economical counter value.
But let's not have this discussion here, it doesn't belong in this subsection of the forum.
