I find it odd mainly because the account hasn't been touched ever since OP made that post : https://blockchair.com/bitcoin/address/1DGwqAM8mV4aJVPidoBp9Zfz8GKhAzLkma

It still holds the 25 BTC. Considering that OP has basically most of the private key, why the lack of interest in running pyhton programs in order to retrieve the missing characters?
