Title: Lost BTC? Can it be traced back thru Blockchain?
Post by: rijidij on December 22, 2017, 01:08:05 PM
Ok, so back in 2011 i purchased 1 btc off a guy I used to game with for about $100, I was pretty skeptical and made a new email for the wallet.

Fast forward 6 years and I've forgotten the email, password, everything.

Is there a way I can track down the transaction through the blockchain if I know the person who sold me the coin's Wallet ID?

Can you pay people to find this information out?

Is it even possible?

I think it can be traced but i think it will not go back to your wallet. Thats the rule of bitcoin or cryptocurrency if you send it will be permanent.

I didn't send it, the guy sent it to me, and I used it on his btc casino (primedice) so the money is technically still mine, in the wallet I created, but I've forgotten the email.

I think you have lost your bitcoin because, according to the principle of blockchain, when a transaction is executed, there is no way to reverse it. You should be more careful in the next transaction, every mistake in the market must trade with your own property, condolence with you.

Of course you can track the transaction. But, unfortunately, you cannot retrieve it. Once you lost any amount of Bitcoin, you will never get it back.
