@math09183, becareful if, you intend to follow any suggestion from newbies especially if, it contain an external link(s) outside this forum.
So, you want to say that my hints are suspicious because I did not post yet 30 posts and label next to my nick is 'Newbie'?
Maybe I did not post because I had nothing constructive to say and I do not care about 'forum status'?
To the author:
If the situation is that wallet itself is not encrypted (you are able to open it), but private keys are encrypted, then in general are 2 solutions:
1) send wallet file to the company which will try to crack it. As far as I know the best reputation has 'Dave' from
https://www.walletrecoveryservices.com/ Their fee is usually 20%. There are others, but it seems you may trust him.
2) you may try to crack password yourself. To do this you do not need to give anyone the wallet because what you need is 'hash' of password.
If you want to do it itself, you need to install Python on your computer and then launch the script mentioned by me - from John The Ripper project. It will give you hash.
(do not use online services because they may steal your wallet and open them-self, so be careful with sites like
https://www.onlinehashcrack.com/tools-bitcoin-litecoin-hash-extractor.php)
Using hash, you may launch application for cracking passwords - probably hashcat would be the best solution. For details, how to configure - you may ask.
If you do not have resources - you may always rent machine with strong GPU etc. It depends if you want to do it yourself... It is really not very difficult and with a guide you could do it (I mean configure everything) in - let's say - half a day. Maybe whole day if you are not a 'IT guy'.
But it makes sense if you know what you are looking for. If you have no idea about the password, you do not know how many characters are there, you do not know if it was random text or dictionary word... it is difficult and maybe it is better to hire someone and just pay him.
thanks i will contact the site you give or looking for someone to hire if he decrypt it will pay him 3k$ to 4k$ as payment
