Wondering if you guys could help. I have an old corrupt wallet.dat. The contents doesn't look like the standard encryption so I am not sure how to recover it. The wallet has potentially quite a good number of bitcoins (potentially over $10M worth) and I have tried just about everything I can think of.
Here is a snippit of what some of the content looks like:

No idea what to make of it.
I've used CrypTool to play around with it to see if it was some type of encryption I was unfamiliar with. There is a 3D analysis of the whole file and it certainly doesn't seem entirely random. It was an older hard drive though and maybe it become corrupt.
Any help would be appreciated immensely
