Yes it doesn't matter now. What intrigues me is why they made 4 transfers in 5 minutes on April 18th and then another one on April 21th (which was sent back to me the same minute) and why they didn't transfer it all. They had like 3 weeks to do it. Something is not right.

Really weird situation, definitely not a classic hack in which nothing is left on the account. Is it at all possible that the stolen assets and those that were not stolen were separated - that is, have you ever entered private keys from other crypto wallets into blockchain.com? I'm asking you this because if someone comes into possession of your seed, they can very easily steal everything from you in less than a minute - but not the funds at the import addresses.

If I had to go into some theories, it's like someone who wanted to take a certain amount of money from you for some reason, because if it's not what I wrote above - I don't see why anyone would leave 19 BTC intact Huh

What I do know is that there have been some very mysterious cases of missing funds from this service, and one such mystery is described at the following link.

Thoughts on this private key stealing mystery

I didn't have an imported address. It seems like someone found an exploit and after 4 transfers it stopped working. So either blockchain.com has a big security flaw or someone there is in on it.

Thanks. Done that, no reply yet. I know that the funds are gone for good but I want to know how it happened. I still believe something is very fishy since they didn't take the full amount (even though they had 3 weeks to do it since my last login) and 1.32 BTc were sent back to my wallet. Even though I do not keep my passphrase on digital support nor I visit any other websites or install software on that PC, there is a possibility that my computer was infected but then this is not my only wallet, I have others which I accessed from the same computer, browser and those are fine. So something doesn't add up
Did you get any response? If no then you have to wait for a few days more. Blockchain claimed their codes are open-source. So most probably a developer could read what Blockchain could access on your wallet and how. If Bitcoin isn't illegal in your country then you may file a police case in the appropriate department or you may file a case in the UK against them. The amount is very big and deserves an explanation of what does happened really and how the fund was moved. So please don't give up. It would happen due to a bug as well, but I don't believe it was a bug. Although you won't get back the funds, you would get the correct reason behind the hacking attack. Just continue writing all of their social media.

Yes I did get a response (see below). Convenient won't you say?

"""""Hello,

Thanks for following up.

We do not keep IP records, the only IP address kept is the IP of the last user that logged in. But as soon as a new login occurs a new IP address overwrites the old one.

Unfortunately, since you logged in to view the compromised wallet that means your IP address overwrote the last login.""""

@OP you lost 19 BTC which is worth $1.75 M at the current rate. So the amount is very big and deserves some violence at least it deserves proper investigation from the end of blockchain higher authority. @OP you should write to blockchain CEO & co-founder Peter Smith directly. Contact via Twitter with him and blockchain wallet. Provide this thread as a reference thread. You have the right to know the story behind that hack. Only login history wouldn't help you because hackers easily can skip it via Tor or they have more advanced tools. The case deserves a proper investigation. Don't give up although there is no hope to get the back hacked amount. Discover the story behind the hack.

Does anyone know how to find the login history on blockchain? I cannot find this and the people from support are not responding.

I vaguely remember users sharing that info here after asking the support... Nevertheless, they do collect such info and you have the right to ask them for a copy

Information we collect about you: With regard to each of your visits to our website or our app we automatically collect the following information:

Login Information: We log technical information about your use of the Services, including the type of browser and version you use, the wallet identifier, the last access time of your wallet, the Internet Protocol (IP) address used to create the wallet and the most recent IP address used to access the wallet.
8. Your Rights
The rights that are available to you in relation to the Personal Data we hold about you are outlined below.

Information Access
If you ask us, we will confirm whether we are processing your Personal Data and, if so, what information we process and, if requested, provide you with a copy of that information within 30 days from the date of your request.

Gonna say this just in case but there is no way to know who exactly is at fault without a through investigation which blockchain.com should participate, we can only narrow down the possibilities... If there is one thing for certain, it is that this is one of the countless episodes on "why people are not recommending blockchain.com wallet"

Sidenote: to keep things more organized and less cluttered, it's better to insert multiple quotes in a single post rather than posting for each of 'em.


Thank you for this. And sorry for the multiple posts, my first time here.

Yes I moved the funds. I know that the funds cannot be recovered but I cannot get my head around how this happened and why would someone leave 12.5 btc on the wallet. Also I never received a confirmation email and my emails are forwarded to another email address with a different password! Everything is weird about this. I cannot but think blockchain.com has something to do with this.

Why not try to contact blockchain about this and maybe this is just a bug on their side.

Try to contact them with their Twitter or Facebook account

- https://twitter.com/blockchain
- https://www.facebook.com/blockchain/

Or try to submit a request here for help
- https://support.blockchain.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

Let's hope that it's just a bug but if not there is no way to recover those hacked BTC.

Does anyone know how to find the login history on blockchain? I cannot find this and the people from support are not responding.

No, they don't have a login history but you should receive an email or notification every time you log in or if blockchain detect suspicious IPs.


I have the notifications sent to 2 different emails with different passwords. the only notifications I have is the one from today when I saw the transfers and the one from my last login on April 13th....so there's that....

I heard of hacker's guilt but never seen a rl example. Sorry for your losses!

Thinking about this and it doesn't sound like a script. If it were it would have cleaned you out! The transaction where he gave you back the amount sounds like a mistake while copy/pasting. My bet is on the email... spyware, malware type.
I assume that the amount were mixed a few rounds after. At least this is my impression after glancing and the btc trail.

Did you recently notice this or on the same day?

Transfers were made on April 18th and April 21th. I noticed it today when I logged in.

[...] so I am left with 12.5 BTC. This makes me believe there is some kind of script, software and not a person getting into my account.
But on your screenshot it shows $0.00 total balance. If its really still there I suggest you to transfer it asap, don't use the email you used on your blockchain.com account if ever, change both passwords on your email and blockchain.com account as well.

I already transferred the 12.5 that's why it shows 0 now

Didn't you activated 2FA on your blockchain wallet, OP? Or sms OTP? Since you are saying you never install anything weird or phising link or sharing your private key to anyone, did someone ever use your computer beside you? I.e your brother, sister or friend?

No one besides me has access to my computer or email. Weird thing as the last transaction was on April 21st for 1.32 BTC and it got sent back to my wallet and never transfered again so I am left with 12.5 BTC. This makes me believe there is some kind of script, software and not a person getting into my account.

Do you use the cracked version of Windows downloaded from Russian torrent websites?
Was your email hacked? Because Blockchain.com always sends verification emails when you try to log in. Do you have sync turned on in your smartphone or do you use blockchain.com wallet on your smartphone? If you have synchronization turned on on your emails, then you would immediately receive the new email verification on your smartphone, otherwise, maybe the person had access to your email and deleted them as soon as possible.

I think that you can check the login history on your blockchain.com account and it would answer some questions.

I use windows 10, no cracked version or something. Been doing it for 4-5 years the same. I cannot find how to check the login history on blockchain. I only use the browser, no app.

I accept the fact that I shouldn't have kept my btc on blockchain.com and should use a ledger but what I do not understand is why would anyone leave 12.5 btc in my account and not transfer them all?? Secondly why would he transfer 1.32 btc and then transfer it back?  Plus, as I said before , I only use this computer for two things: email and blockchai.com. I never open anything else in the browser or install software.

HI there. I have been a user of blockchain.com since it's inception. I know not to share my private keys with anyone and I know not to fall for phishing emails. I have a computer which I only use to login to blockchain (no exception)!!!. So I am certain this is not my fault. I also believe there is some king of software that transferred the funds since on April 13th (my last login) I had 31 BTC remaining and now I have 12 left (a person would have transferred the whole amount I believe). There have been 5 unauthorized transactions after my login on April 13th. I will write the tx below.

8d3889d7623b16b1a361b1414a6a5515266c11dc7fbe079b8d547167b5066163
431a75acfa374be69834bf9aff0b3e520260452b6d6ed4bd4b20802ee8b93aad

aedbe9f05b4f34f6675dcfe2245f097bf609b54be55186787331b1e93401f400
b55864c00b37b2184dae70e3bd13e6852413fa196eeb1eef267b5aa41443b988


On the next tx is a transfer for 1.32 BTC (tx c7ed5beb2541e9153a7287f73722f9ecfb8a6b25a0c769790c2fc73bb7fc4fb4) but at the same time the amount was sent back to me

(tx 2b93fcc90c2350277376314e24eb8292658cac9d04831d26761a4012421e5875) which is extremely weird. Does someone have an idea why would this happen?


This is a screenshot of the transactions (my own last transaction was 1 btc on April 13th. https://imgur.com/QENbCv1
