Last transaction was made on 2016-01-21 and I guess the other sent fractions are just tested for burning. Do you know on who's this person or where did you got this address? That's a lot of bitcoins computing 9,000 BTC * $13,460 = it's a shining $121,140,000.

This is the story. It sounds like it was a very easy mistake to make back in the day. These days we're spoilt for choice in terms of wallets and the protection they offer. Any one of us might have made the same balls up.

This is a bad story. The owner might be gone mad and became insane because of this. so unfortunate.  Sad

I hope they can still find a solution for this simple problem.

It's great to have that much money, but I think he wont recover teh password or none can do it.
Guys who can help him for recovering password? and how we can trust these blockchain? it is bad for anyone who lost their password and unable to recover it, so trusting Bitcoin is the biggest faulty thing for us.

This is normal, because early bitcoin is not worth much, so many people forget to back up their private keys.

This is a funny story, just like the famous Lazlo pizza story. But probably both this guy and Lazlo had lots of other Bitcoins to console themselves later. And many many other people must have sold their coins when they were cheap. Even I have sold one big bag of an altcoin in April for 3000$ and if I hadn't now I would sit on 3 Million $... which perhaps will be 30 in 5 years time. So you see, these stories happen again and again... even to me! Smiley

I have both Bitcoins and Litecoins stuck which I cannot use from back in 2012

The litecoins are worth around £2000 GPB  The bitcoins are only worth about £480  GPB so in total I have lost £2480 lol

Back in 2012 I really dont remember people talking about private keys,  all I remember was to keep your address and wallet password so that was all I did keep. I have even searched my hardrive for the wallet.dat files and the ones I found wont dump the private keys so they are obivously not the correct ones. We all live and learn lol

I think he is saddened to lose big BTC because actually 9000BTC at this moment is huge and can help him get everything in the world. For me everyone is wrong and this 9000 BTC will never be used
