Hello,

Someone has got your funds, and probably because you were using a weak wallet like electrum.

Another weak wallets are USB keys which are masked as LEDGER or TREZOR and are very easy to compromise if you loose them.

Don't buy a ledger for 99USD, print your keys to paper, or stay tuned for a new revolution, which is keyless wallets...

You can also do a deep scan of your drive. If you only did a quick-format then its possible to look for keys on the drive on a low-level.

To be safe, make a backup copy of the entire drive, preferably an image.

Then scan the image for possbile wallet.dat files or private keys.

You can do this with a tool call pywallet, you can get it from here: https://github.com/jackjack-jj/pywallet

Good luck!

you can always use your seed to recover the private keys

a very useful tool for this is https://iancoleman.io/bip39/

For security reasons use it offline.

hope you find this helpful.

yes, you could use Hashcat for this.(i have done this with 20+ wallet.dat files)

First you need john the ripper to extract the hash value from each wallet, put all hashes in one file.( the python tool is bitcoin2john.py)

then use hashcat and specify the hash file as the hash

note, this only works with same versions of wallets, i.e. if you use 11300 it should apply to all hashes

you can dowbload jtr here  https://github.com/magnumripper/JohnTheRipper

you can download hashcat here  https://github.com/hashcat/hashcat

good luck!

ps. i would also recommend to use hashcat brain to store all tried attacks to avoid doubles

Thats why I wrote IF you can store the decryption process in a ARM processor, which is whats "having physical access" would simulate.

Hu många bitcoin har ni köpt och till vilken kurs?

Var har ni Era bitcoin, och är det en börs eller en hårdvaru wallet typ Ledger Trezor.

Om Er snittkurs är under 100,000 Sek per bitcoin så ligger ni bra till.

Vem har nycklarna till Er wallet och vilken address(public key) har ni Era bitcoin?

Har du svar på alla frågor så kan du få råd hur du ska gå vidare.

Ett gott råd är att du skaffar dig en kopia på allt du investerat hittils.

Well, theoretically its possible if you could store the decryption process in an ARM processor. There are ways to decrypt the AES key with tools such as the chipwhisperer, using methods like power consumption detection.

I was just attending the Blackhat Las Vegas forum last week where we did this hands on with python scripts. You can do this both for AES-128 and AES-256. The tool I'm talking about is this: https://newae.com/tools/chipwhisperer/

I'm not going to argue wheather its possible with your specific case, but wanted to throw in my 5 cents on technologies out there which are available and theoretically could prove what you are trying to solve.

Copied from their site;

No-Cash principle: Our incubator (co-investor) company will not give entrepreneurs cash funding. Instead, we will provide technical development needed for the startup in exchange of equity.

Co-Funding principle: We will invest usually 50% and we can increase it but never 100%. The entrepreneur should secure the other 50% either through angel investors, government funds or from savings. We can invest more than 50% but never the full amount.

Fair equity principle: FasterCapital would like to receive 20%-40% equity in the startup in the incubation program.

-
So its basically they help you with development, but never give cash.

Hi all

Looking to buy the ZTEX 1.15y FPGA boards.

Please PM with amount, location and price.

Preferably shipping within Europe but would accept worldwide shipment too.

What you refer to is called in general terms a re-org.

It happened to most of the chains and basically more than 50% of the miners need to agree to the re-org or a hard-fork.

You have several cases that happened here:

Or by definition by bitcoin.it

What os are you planning to use for the recovery, i can write out a step by step as I've done this recently for a client in New York.

/KX

Did you manage to run it?

Depending on your os the settings are different.

If you specify os version and drive size (yes, drive size has to be included in the search) I could write out the parameters for you.

A typical drive (non ssd) takes about 5-8 hours for 250 gb

It prints out possible keys.
