Title: Wallet recovery from 2011 with rot13(maybe)? Help Post by: dykastdnb on March 23, 2021, 02:45:29 PM Not sure where to put this. Sorry if this is nothing.
I do not have the private key or the wallet.dat. This could just be a api call thingy for slushpool. It could be a paper wallet. I have no idea as I have tried everything I can think of to figure out wtf I did. I DO HAVE 3 emails that I sent to myself on the day that this wallet was created. The emails have NO information on what they are. It contains the wallet address in normal format. 1XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX alphanumeric Next email has a number in this format XXXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX alphanumeric(this showed as being Rot13 in a converter...but idunno) Next email has XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX alpha plus special characters Thanks Title: Re: Wallet recovery from 2011 with rot13(maybe)?

Have you checked the balance of the address?1XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX alphanumeric To do so, you can enter the address in a block explorer like blockchair.com (http://blockchair.com).

Help Post by: HeRetiK on March 23, 2021, 03:22:27 PM XXXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX alphanumeric(this showed as being Rot13 in a converter...but idunno) Which converter? Detecting a simple letter substitution cipher such as ROT13 works quite nicely on English or other languages, but if it's a private key of sorts this classification is most likely incorrect. Have you tried applying ROT13 to check whether it results in anything meaningful? Title: Re: Wallet recovery from 2011 with rot13(maybe)?

Title: Re: Wallet recovery from 2011 with rot13(maybe)? Help Post by: dykastdnb on March 23, 2021, 03:59:17 PM It looks like this
NNNNN-dNNNNNXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX N=Number d=lowercase d X=numbers and letters The - is in the number string in the email Alphanumeric...Actually(not sure if this is going to help) It's 1-9 and a-z no uppercase letters NINJA EDIT: I DO NOT THINK ITS ROT13. I just realized the site I was using https://brainwalletx.github.io/#converter shows everything as rot13. Title: Re: Wallet recovery from 2011 with rot13(maybe)?

It can't be base58 if it has an "l", "I", 0 or "O" on it. And given that there are letters other than a-f, it can't be hex either. It looks like this NNNNN-dNNNNNXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX N=Number d=lowercase d X=numbers and letters The - is in the number string in the email Alphanumeric...Actually(not sure if this is going to help) It's 1-9 and a-z no uppercase letters It is definitely not a private key then, because they don't have dashes in them. Most pools let you specify the address you want rewards to be sent to. Its worth checking again if you have any wallets with this address lying around. It's highly unlikely that you used an address without saving the wallet or private key somewhere. It's also worth checking if you have any strings that start with a 5, those might be the private keys you are looking for. Title: Re: Wallet recovery from 2011 with rot13(maybe)?

That’s why I’m thinking I made these emails as some type of backup.. |
