ok, you are right...

So, you should use nothing that does not solve a scientific problem. You shouldn´t use fiat money also, because it doesnt solve a scientific problem.

I think you dont understand bitcoin but you see many scientific problems and dont have a solution. Bitcoin is not this solution, you are right.

bitcoin is not here to solve a mathematical problem, but to solve a financial problem. perhaps you should be clear about this

"NoBrain86-By advancing science, I mean that the computation has uses other than simply securing the cryptocurrency. There are several cryptocurrencies that reward miners with coins for finding patterns in the collection of prime numbers such as Cunningham chains or gaps between prime numbers. But these cryptocurrencies barely count because the problem of finding patterns in the collection of prime numbers has little potential applications, and it is not even that interesting to mathematicians. This means that the cryptocurrency community needs to try harder at recognizing proof-of-work problems that do actually work towards solving a problem that is actually important."

What has bitcoin to do with this?
I dont get your problem. If Bitcoin wouldnt handle "advanced science", all 21million btc would be mined today.

What is the "advanced science" you are (not) talking about?

Perhaps Bitcoincore was the Miningprogramm.

Its downloading for years i think

Thank you for help!

Thank you I found the wallet.dat and opened Bitcoincore but it says 0 BTC.

Seeing this I recognize that I tried to transfer the mined btc to that bitcoincorewallet but i failed.

I think I let them in the Miningprogramm or whatever.

All I know is i had a Miningprogramm and it showed me how much BTC were mined so far... thats all

Perhaps i deleted that Programm but some files can be found.

But honestly if I watch my Fileexplorer, there were no files deleted in the last 10 years...

Hi i mined some BTC in 2013/2014 and forgot about it until today. I just did it with my PC and a programm and graphiccard + usb miner.

Today I thought about it after I forgot it completly.


I´ve nothing. No Wallet adress, no idea where to find.

Tried to login here but it says that my account was banned after a password leak of bitcointalk happened in 2015.

I´ve the same PC and harddisk so I looked for that Miningprogramm. Perhaps all is saved in there.

All I found was the programm "Bitcoincore" but I think I need to find another programm.

I dont know what I´m looking for and my Harddisk ist full of stupid old Files and Folders.

Do you have a hint what and where I should look for?

Thanks so far
