Title: Strongcoin private key not decrpyting? Post by: futureghost on February 15, 2017, 07:47:08 PM Hey guys,
I am pretty damn frustrated over here. I have some coins on Strongcoin, and it won't let me withdraw them. It asks me for my password for the wallet, and when I put in the password it tells me Invalid. I have the private key encrypted from the paper backup, but is there anyway I can get to my coins? I really cant afford to lose this money. I've contacted Strongcoin customer service and asked them to help, but not expecting much. In my research I have found forum posts saying I can decrypt my key using command line, but the instructions on how to go about this are extremely unclear and confusing. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks yall! Title: Re: Strongcoin private key not decrpyting? Post by: OmegaStarScream on February 16, 2017, 02:00:03 PM It's weird how I never heard of them and they claim to have +100,000 users and they even charge some fees. I checked their FAQ and It looks like there is no seed or anything to recover your coins , It says that If you lose your password then there is nothing you could do about it and you are claiming that your password is 100% .
Quote The paper wallet has you private key encrypted with AES which is compatible with openssl. Just supply your password to decrypt the keys with any AES openssl compatible implementation. I don't know much about the technical details but have you tried to download OpenSSL and decrypt ? there are a few tutorials out there (they have nothing to do with bitcoin though, but the rules applies in all cases) Title: Re: Strongcoin private key not decrpyting?

I was hoping to find someone on here who has had to do this before. I'm trying to find a guide. I am 99.99% sure I have the right password so its appearing this is the only way to do it (I guess the site has issues). EDIT: I really am positive I have the right password. This sucks.

Using google: https://sourceforge.net/directory/os:windows/?q=aes%20256%20decrypt I guess any of these tools, or the dozens of online decryptors should do the trick (altough, i wouldn't trust websites, nor closed source tools to do this job) Title: Re: Strongcoin private key not decrpyting? Post by: neochiny on February 16, 2017, 06:53:02 PM -- How sure? Have you previously used that password to decode an encrypted private key from them? EDIT: I really am positive I have the right password. This sucks. And when was the last time you used it? I personally don't use them, I've taken a look previously but ultimately decided against them as I've seen some users having issues with their passwords. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1704918.0 https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=238826.0;all Have you had no luck with support?
