Hi everyone,
I have a weird situation. A friend of mine who just told me they purchased Bitcoin when it first came out. They went to a website that had Satoshi's manifest and purchased some Bitcoin from the site. There were given a private key which they appear to have.
1) They do not have the website they purchased the Bitcoins from
2) They do not have the original computer they purchased the Bitcoins with.
3) They do not have the card the originally purchased the Bitcoins on.
I know this is a shot in the dark, but is there a way with just the private key to be able to recover their Bitcoins?
I would need exactly what is need please, if this is possible.
Thank you,
