hi,

i am just collecting info about lost bitcoins.

i want addresses with lost private keys / no private keys / or any other addresses with unavailable bitcoins

is anybody can point me if such data set is already exist or just post such addresses here.

thank you
It is very difficult if not impossible to track lost coins, coins that have not moved for a long time could be lost but those coins could also be held by long term holders that are not interested in moving their coins, and even if someone claims that the coins in a particular address are lost it is impossible to verify it, and if the person could sign a message with that address then such a thing could prove that the address was his but will also prove the coins are not lost.
