Title: Lost passphrase doge wallet [50k doge reward]
Post by: Alohaboy?! on December 27, 2013, 08:24:20 PM
Aloha,

I got some problems with unlocking my dogecoin wallet.
I 100% copy and pasted the passphrase but something seems to went wrong.
I´ve read this topic https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=85495.0  but i´m not sure if this will work for doge. Does someone know what to do ?

i would really appreciate if someone could help me! ;)

I will send 50.000 doges for the tip which get´s me back in my wallet

There's a business around that tries to recover lost wallet passphrases as long as you have a general idea of what it was. Search it on Google (for Bitcoin).

Well, more info please. What does your passphrase look like? Is it random or actually something you remember at least in parts?

You might have an accidental space inside or at the end

just an longshot idea, maybe there was a spacebar on either side while you were copy/pasting?  Sorry about your loss

Yes i tried the spacebars at the end etc. But it doesn't work.

I wrote my passphrase in a txt doc and i'm sure its something like "dogetothefuckingmoon"

But copy Paste  my passphrase doesn't work. I really don't Know why xD

Yeah searched with google and i found something with Ruby but i really don't Know how to get this done.

I had same issue and remembered my password after 5 days. I though it was shibeshibeshibe1234 but as it turns out my pass was shibeshibeshibewow1234 . Probably you did something like that.

If you think you can't remember it try mailing : walletrecoveryservices@gmail.com . A man named Dave is working for bitcoin wallet recovery,  I send him information and my wallet.dat but before he cracks it I remembered it .There is also a way that works without sending your wallet.dat, and with that method even if he gets your password he can't get your coins (you can read that further in http://www.walletrecoveryservices.com/) but he seems like a very nice guy and looks legit so I trusted him.

I made that ruby script work for dogecoin wallet but it's really too slow and i don't recommend it unless you are sure that password you remember is very close to your actual password.

On the other hand if you want to give it a shot (ruby method) :
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=85495.msg3787076#msg3787076
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=85495.msg3787285#msg3787285

This method works for dogecoin wallet, you just need to take wallet.dat from dogecoin folder in roaming and follow the steps.

You can speed up process by deleting characters from characters line that you would never use (but don't forget about mistype) :

line I'm talking about :

characters = " !\"\#$%&'()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>?@ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\\]^_`abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz{|}~"
  list = []

c/p a missing spacebar from a worddoc for example gives another result than manual input. Try to copy the spacebar from your doc instead of manual input. Mark whole line and don't forget to send some doge here when this opens your wallet ;) I am pretty sure you get it open when just marking the whole line in the doc including that spacebar, that is normally there. Copy that spacebar from the doc.

if you backed the wallet up before encrypting it, just replace the new encrypted data file with the old un-encrypted one.

worth a try, but did you type ""dogtothefuckingmoon" and forget the e in doge?  :D

I will try ruby and maybe it could help ;)

dogetothefuckingmoon

lol, its possible that you wrote it like doge2thefuckingmoon. or wrote dogetothefuckimgmoon. And replaced any m with n. I have had that mistake before. Try that. maybe try a dot at the end too :)
