Your story makes me remember this user:

He also did lost is password.

Hello all. I haven't been here for a while so I saw your BCN thread for the first time yesterday evening. You know what? It seems to me I had been mining Bytecoin in 2012.

I was at Bitcoin London Conf in 2012 and went to have a beer with friends to the nearest pub last evening. I met a guy there (don't remember his name. something like Jeff or John, maybe).
He told me about ring signatures and mentioned something about CryptoNote. I felt interested and tried to ask him for more details. He was with a company too(10 or 12 people meetup) so our conversation was rather short. We chatted a bit and he gave me a card with .onion website address. He said it would be a currency of the future and I had to mine it.

Another thing i just stumbled on is they mentioned a meeting somewhere in London around Sept. 2012. Around the same time there was a Bitcoin Conference in the same city.

It was mentioned before, sounds legit. Jeff Garzik anyone?

Jeff Garzik? Maybe, I don't remember. But doesn't look like a guy.

Old community army is coming at us? Lol.

So, been mining much in 2012?

I used to mine with my old laptop. Difficulty wasn't that high and I used to find blocks rather regularly. So I did around 100M for a week, but I saw no reason to mine further since I knew no places
to spend it. Also I didn't know where it came from and where it would be.

This is the last post of this user. Never again is been activ, very strange IMO.

I don't have the .onion address. But it looked similar to the one mentioned earlier.
And as I have already told I have the wallet keys files, but nothing else.

What's so weird about mining on laptop?

UPD: Here's the file if you want to have a look https://anonfiles.com/file/a6a540eeb9b5fb8be89460951457a9fb




That is interesting. Did he ever get into his wallet as far as you know?

Unfortunately I didn't go to the Bitcoin conference (Wish I had but was working) - however I am UK based. I did hear about the conference at the time but I couldn't tell you if it was related to the daemon/wallet link on the forum - can't remember!

I also mined on my Stinkpad X60 - however I was mining at least 6 weeks before I lost interest. The mining slowed to a crawl and I didn't bother after that. Plus I lost the tails habit.  Sad

i don't know, this was is last post, you can check it in his profile.
But you gotta show us some indisputable proof that you start to mine BCN in 2012 to end this suspicion.


Yep, in the net you should have evidence that confirms your words, otherwise nobody will trust you
