Thanks for your comments guys!

So seems like brute force is the only way, i wished private key could help in any way.
Although would probably be a very long complex one. Sad


I'm afraid you cannot, sorry. You can still try to brute force but your chance of success is probably close to zero because you don't remember you had one as you said. Have you tried searching your old files? You could have written it somewhere.

I can't believe i haven't saved a file with it! I think i exaggerated with security level and i have hidden password somewhere i can't remember!

I may have printed it but i can't find any document with a password. I'm an idiot. Sad


Come off it mate, you are not an idiot, alot of other people have made similar mistakes in the past, some where able to recover their coins back, others couldn't not, this does not mean they are idiots, you just have to try to brute force the wallet and pray you get lucky, but incase it didn't work out, don't see yourself as an idiot, you've probably learnt and will never make this kind of mistake next time, so just move on, there are a lot of opportunities in this crypto space, you are definitely going to make back whatever you lost if at all you are not able to recover your dogecoins back.
