Is there any way of getting money from empty bitcoin addresses other than clam

[kkost]

I know about clam and bitcoin forks(I know of bitcoin cash and gold), but is there any other way of extracting money from empty bitcoin addresses which have had a balance from 2012-2016.

Also, is there any other major coins like dash or something that had a balance but is empty.. methods to extract cash?

If you're talking about the forks related coin, you can only extract the the fork coins, if and only if you had balance on the specific address before the fork time and date occurs, so the answer is no.

you are not "extracting" cash, you are claiming free giveaways that happened a long time ago. some of them are timed out since they are too old and some still work. if there was a fork that copied the whole blockchain of a cryptocurrency and created a new one and you had a balance prior to that copy/fork then you have the same coins in the forked chain.
you should beware of the risks of claiming these coins though, not just replay attacks but also infecting your computer by having to install shady wallets.

The question is.... How are you going to get access to the Private keys, linked to these empty Bitcoin addresses? Most people already grabbed the FREE fork coins from their Bitcoin addresses just after the fork, because they know these fork coins does not last long. The fork gets hyped and pumped in the beginning and then people realize that it was simply a pump n dump and people are not really interested in the new coin and then it dies.    <Example : BitcoinXT>

I would rather look towards new Alt coins, where they give free coins to kick start the project, if you are looking for free coins.

Ill support the same statement of looking for team who gives out free coins from the beggining,yes you can make off money some fork coins on bitcoin but the process that you need to do will take you a long time and stress trying to log in or encrypt individual private keys.

As long as you know which address is eligible for the forked coins giveaway, it's not that difficult. You just need to sweep the balance to make sure that your current balance is safe, and then use the private key of that address to load up your forked coins wallet. The only problem is whether the wallet app is safe or not.

Claiming forked coins and clams are literally the only ways to utilize addresses from the past which has no balance today. There literally are no other ways about it and even though you might claim some, chances are the value is not that high and the effort is somewhat futile, knowing that not all fork survived and not all of them held value over time. Best thing to do is to just look for other projects and do a fresh start rather than trying to dig your old addresses which, for the most part you already ended up forgetting.

I love how that site is .ninja. Yes it is not really extracting, it's like clones of the existing coins inside wallets before the forks happened, that is exactly what it is. Of course it rewards the innovations/founders a lot more and they rightfully deserve it.

It's really important that you are aware of the risks involved while claiming them. Where there's money, mostly always someone will attempt to scam you, sadly too much not so innocent people in this world.

If the wallet was empty then ofc you cannot extract any money from there because it was only given to people who actually we're involved in the market and kept some coins.

Secondly for the address which you claim might have some coins and are *yours *, you can just go and write the company or the wallet you are holding into , just write a really good email and ask them for help , about how you have forgotten and stuff, they will identify you again and possibly you will get back your wallet.

If you are talking about claiming the forked coins then you can either pay the professional to do they will take 10% and either you can check online there are number of steps given , but honestly it is not worth the time and effort because their value is well , a lot down even if you had like 0.1 of them it still accounts for 20$-30$ something and you would need your private key for that and that is risky.

Honestly, I'd rather say none of the effort is worth it, at least not at this time being. Pooya's link is one of the best, other than BCH, which I sold off long ago haha, all the other coins COMBINED don't even come to $70 for every BTC you owned at the fork. I wager much, MUCH less after fees from exchanges, if you can even have enough to withdraw at most of those exchanges listing the fork!

[Ucy]

If i get you right, you want to claim coins forked from bitcoin on empty bitcoin address that use to have bitcoin in it? Not possible as far as I can tell..
You can only claim forked coins if you have bitcoin in an address during forks

I still hold some BTG and the rest of the fork circus that came after it. I don't find it worthwhile to start moving my coins from one private key to the other at this point, but that may change during the next bull run of hell.

It's insane looking at how some of these forks have been extremely generous rewarding Bitcoin holders. Bcash was like $4000 at one point, where BTG peaked around the $500 mark.

There was also byteball that at peak of the 2017 bull run would have resulted in a $500 dividend per Bitcoin. Warren Buffett says Bitcoin doesn't create anything, well, it has been more than rewarding in 2017 with all the forks and airdrops.

Nah, there's no other way than fork coins as mentioned, as long as you have your wallet loaded with bitcoin exactly with the timestamp of the occurence of the forks of bitcoin then you have it.
But other than that, don't expect that you can extract more cash with your empty bitcoin wallet.
