You found the keys to a car. Can you take the car? Is it legal? Don't be an idiot. The money is yours. It is not illegal to transfer bitcoin if you have the key to do it. Having the key means it is your bitcoin. Take it and transfer it to another address before another key holder does that. Not really, what i would do is to donate 39 BTC to people who needs it. Like donating to projects everyone use, but no one donates to, like UNOMP, BCOIN, and many others. I would keep 1 BTC as a reward for fair distributing the funds. But the question is, how did you found a private key in a forum, with 40BTC in the wallet ? normally as it is existing since 2011, it should have been aleready emptied. one You are a liar nemgun! You would take it like almost anyone else would take it! Like RawDog said, who own private keys own the bitcoins! Even if this is not a joke, someone already took that bitcoins cause this private keys was publicly exposed. I would took all that bitcoins, and I would probably cash out big part and with rest gambling baby, big time with 5 btc or more, like never before! |

Oh haha! You have the blockchain address to that wallet? I am having it hard to believe as he is saying he found 40BTC on a wallet then someone else says they found 140BTC just to have a bigger internet slong. LOL! That gave me laugh just now. So thanks for putting the humor to this thread!  That was lacking because it was getting way to serious with the above posters e-begging.  |

Transfer the 40 bitcoins to another wallet/address(if you really have the private key). if you don't someone else might find it out and do it lol. do whatever you like donate/keep/sell. Hi,

Not in the darknet, in the clear Internet.
Best Regards!
Check the wallet address(es) and see if you can find something in the internet, if anyone has posted it and try to contact the owner. Also check if someone has posted if he has lost the wallet or the private key of the address that this wallet has, I'm sure he will reward you. If I were you I would give back to the owner (if he can prove it), just imagine if you lost 40 BTC, what a bad feeling. What if the owner is dead? probably the private key was there for 6 years. |

If the users saying that they found a private key with a considerable amount of Bitcoin in a forum did found them, here's what they should do in order to try and find its previous owner:
-Move the funds ASAP to a secure address that you control
-Post the address in several places, like this forum and reddit
-If someone says they were the previous owner of those coins, request them proof that they control the forum account that posted the private key
It will always be difficult to track the original owner of these coins. Even if someone does have proof that they own the forum account that posted that private key, it might not be the original owner of those coins.
Either way, this question was most likely related to moral dilemma of some sorts. In the end each one of us would do its own thing. I just posted what I'd do.

I want to believe you but I only believe in proofs. So here is what you need to do in order for me to believe you and many other people also. Sign a message from that wallet with 40 BTC for everyone to see here, if you are saying the truth which I doubt you are then you will be believed in the forum. How to sign a message is in this thread here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=990345.0And to be believed you need to not make any transaction so we can all know last transaction is from 2011. In the end I know you are just trolling around, cause I have read same story thousand times until now. |

I do not believe OP with his fantasy story of finding 40 BTC.
if you just discovered it now, you mean to say other forum members on that site were not that smart to recognize a bitcoin private key to sweep the wallet dry??

Oh well let us think as it is, no need to believe or not, it will not benefit us anyway . If you found the priv key, its yours, now brag it here and sign that address that have that 40 BTC (well of course after moving the funds out). I will be the first one to be happy for your fortune |

First I do not believe that you have actually found the priv key and are only trolling. Second,This is a debatable issue as there is no law regarding this. If you have conscience donate them as leaving would not be the best option. |

Assuming that I believe that you have found a 40btc . Yes you can just take it . Why? The private key symbolizes ownership so if you have the key it means that you're the owner . As you have said the last transaction was on 2011 so its probably from an early adopter who gives up on bitcoin .
But what you have said just now is too unrealistic, First is you have no proof . Second your a newbie whos probably just trolling . Third is you did not state how you got the private key .

legal?, or ethical?, . I would transfer it to another secure address of your own and then try to find the owner, .. shouldn't be hard to do, . (ethical thing to do) .if you cant find the owner, just hang onto it in your own account for a few years and then if no one is looking for it, . .its yours, . . just like finding money on the street.
