Friends, the news background on the crypto market has been very active lately, and in a rather positive way, but not every good news is true. How does this affect your investments and strategy on the market? How to protect against fakes?

Ok... We started namecalling... Sure, why not... Let's go there.


Well... I have NEVER said that people won't get scammed... Ofcourse scammers jump on any opportunity or technology that isn't well understood trying to scam innocent users... btcrecover is no exeption. I'm pretty sure the OP will get several offers of people wanting to help him that are, in fact, scammers without even bringing any tool into the conversation.


I never said btcrecover is the holy grail, i never said it's the go-to application, i even clearly stated that for a strong, random password the odds of finding the password are very low. Sure, there are better tools out there, but i have used btcrecover in the past and i found it pretty easy to run, so from time to time i do give this as one of the potential options a user can try so he doesn't have to give his wallet.dat to a thirth party.

I don't think tools like these have many success stories anyways... It's pretty hard to brute force a password, so i guess most people that try never succeed, and people that succeed only very seldomly post their success story. Only the people that try and fail start to ask questions. I'm not naive, i'm a realist.

I did use this tool myself, and since i have no stake in this question (i'm not trying to charge the op for brute forcing his password), i do hope i'm a credible witness (i'm sure you'll disagree, but i don't really care). If not, i did a quick google and did find this story: https://github.com/gurnec/btcrecover/issues/286
I know this proves nothing, but at least you can't say the tool doesn't work at all.

I'm not affiliated with btcrecover, the OP is free to chose whatever tool or person he wants... Based on your last post i can only assume you claim to have found a weakness in the way bitcoin core implemented wallet encryption (since you bring up the fact you claim to have 7 years of C++ and reverse engineering experience, i can only assume you're not planning on brute forcing the password).
Eventough i haven't seen proof of any of your claims, i wish you the best, and if you're for real and did find an exploit, you'll have a much better chance of helping the op than anybody with a brute force tool... But for now you'll have to understand it's a big if, i haven't seen any proof...

Good luck, i have no intention to keep bickering with you, so i'll remove this topic from my watchlist and hope the OP makes a wise decission.

Where do you get these 5,000,000 incorrect passwords from? The op didn't mention he had a list of 5,000,000 passwords and only one is/was correct... If he had an ascii file with 4999999 incorrect passwords and 1 correct one, i would defenately have pointed him towards btcrecover... Using such a small password file would have been pretty easy.

Even if his password is only 9 characters long (lower, upper, nuber, special), there would have been 572,994,802,228,616,704 combinations... Where do you get 5.000.000?

Can you tell me what sounds good when i initially explained btcrecover in this very thread.. Here is how i explained the OP's odds:


And i still stand by my words... I have used btcrecover on my own wallets in the past, but i had a relatively decent idear about what my password might have been... I clearly stated that if the OP has no clue, and he chose a relatively strong password, his odds are very, very, very small...

Hard to ignore this, so who do you side with in this situation

I could do a walkthrough of btcrecover as I have done something similar before, in spite it been for the bitsend project.

If OP is comfortable with this I can start but will require an escrow be setup and funds will be released after completion.

Your trust summary says otherwise mate, have you ever recovered any wallets before, if so post the details you have done to help someone recover the accounts.
The only realistic solution is to write down your known passwords and ask someone else's help so that you can run a script with many combinations and if you are lucky you can unlock your coins. Even if someone send you something make sure you scan them before opening it and try to recover yourself as you really do not need to be a tech savvy to try that.

Go to your profile then choose "personal message options".
