Hi all,

back in March 2017 I sent 4,45 BTC to an address and its still sitting there, I think the addy was mine but I can't remember.
If anyone can find whose address it is ( DEX e.g. ) an I can get control over it, im willing to pay a reward for helping!
The addy is 1Q5PuHeQXqpQ4Z7qs42SbtmPzm1xHmY1WP

You're trying to gain access to that address just because you think you sent funds there, but you're not even sure? That's really hard to believe. No one would seriously attempt to retrieve the private key of a specific address based on such uncertainty, especially considering how incredibly difficult and unrealistic that is to achieve.

It has to be mine.. but I don't know if it's sitting on a DEX or on a cold wallet.

No information about exchange from https://www.walletexplorer.com/wallet/0cf3c56ee92359cf/addresses
The same with Arkham Intelligence https://intel.arkm.com/explorer/address/1Q5PuHeQXqpQ4Z7qs42SbtmPzm1xHmY1WP

If if you use a DEX, you own the private key of that Bitcoin address and only you can recover that wallet through private key. You are here to ask, this means you have no private key for recovery.

Thts very helpful, thank you!
