This guy has lost 103 bitcoins he mined back in 2011 and then lost his wallet dat file similar to what I have done but wow this guy must be gutted the amount of money he has lost compared to me  

His Address    166BuLPWHUjqoqiYp5rGE3B5r5AmqgHpoL    Final Balance   103.20832384 BTC

So many people have the same problem and I wonder just how much Bitcoin is stuck not being able to be used Sad

He says "I used to mine Bitcoin back in 2011 and I lost my wallet.dat file (through several stupid moves on my part). It's got approx 103 BTC in it, anyone is welcome to it, I've given up trying."









I think that's the biggest mistakes or problem that came to his life because imagine that 103 bitcoin lost and if you are going to convert it now you can be a millionaire. Actually if that will happen to me I don't know what to do because that will be the biggest regret in my life.

what a dissapointment, when I lost $500 dollors in trading I feel so down but compared to these one, I think I am a bit lucky because I only loose  $500. But we cannot go back in time all we have to do is to move forward and learn from that mistake

My my, 103BTC. There is a lot of stories like that. That's shows you, if you have coins which worth few $ now, there no difference if you sell now, but if you hold it save, it can change your life, forever.

the amount of bitcoin lost is very large, if the loss of wallet.dat file can not be restored? preventive measures in my opinion, should often backup important data, so that events like this do not happen again in the future

And it's like the most popular problem before the miners who have mine a lot of Bitcoin, they want to remain real but unfortunately because they are looking for some security for their Bitcoin, they erase their storage while supporting it and unfortunately, they can backup it. Actually it has one hundred and three Bitcoins in his wallet. He must be very disappointed with the loss of his wallet.

I don't what to feel if I'm in this guys' position. It is like saving for so many years and then you buried all the money for years and then when you just remembered it, the fiat has already updated the paper notes and they don't accept previous paper notes versions anymore.

It is not all about investing or mining bitcoin, the most difficult aspect of  having bitcoin is the ability to keep it safe until when it is needed or have appreciated. Before investing let make sure we learn how to keep our bitcoin first.

We can not do some thing to get it back because you made a mistake and we can not blame different people for that flawed however it's miles a lesson to examine for it so we need to be greater careful especially in our private key. I recognize it's far hard to simply accept it however you need to be strong so you will overcome this example.

It is a pity that bitcoin's blockchain feature is irrevocable and anonymous, so if you lose your private key then the team can't help you find it.

It's not easy to lose when the 103 bitcoin is invested, because 103 bitcoin is so big that it's going to go wrong, it's up to you if his account is a scam. With 103 bitcoin investment he can afford to control a coin in the market.

That's pretty bad. 103BTC is worth like $60k+ now. Apart from wallet.DAT most people forgot there is still a way to do backup of at wallet with private key. Because, it is easy for wallet.dat to be corrupted and when corrupted, that renders the wallet useless. I don't think there is a way to recover your BTC and the guy with 103BTC without the DAT file or private key.

I think in 2011 bitcoin is still not very valuable and probably will not mean much to your friends even though he lost a lot of bitcoin that year.
There is no other way to recover your wallet password, although there are apps that can help you recover your wallet password, of course it will be very vulnerable to theft.

I think it happened because this guy did not take bitcoins seriously and therefore did not provide competent storage for his bitcoins, because of what he lost all his keys. But this story is rather instructive, because it makes other investors take a responsible attitude to their money and their storage...

That's way hardware wallet is best choice to keep your digital asset than software wallet. There was no way to recover it from the dumping ground because the ground is huge in size and there was no assurance that hard disc will be in the perfect situation even if the person is trying all the efforts to find that hard disk. After all, Crypto is all about self-responsibility and anyone is responsible for his own actions.

Sadly for him. This is really a big amount of bitcoin that every individual can use. This is a good lesson, need to keep privatekey and related information bitcoin wallet.I Have forgotten my privatekey, but fortunately the bitcoin number is very small.

Way back those years bitcoin isn't valued much by that time so it's okay for him not to recover that as no one expecting that bitcoin will be on this stage. And it's like the most popular problem before of those miners that has mined a lot of bitcoin, they want to store it for real but unluckily as they look for some security to their bitcoins, they are wiping out their storage upon backing it up and unfortunately, they aren't able to make one back up for it.

I think this guy should not take bitcoin seriously or we can say that bitcoin has a problem at that time. Maybe bitcoin having a technical problem so that the account of guy affected by that issue. We should not be conclude or judge about that issue instead we accept the things that even in the online transactions is not perfect.

103 bitcoin is a lot of money, that's way hardware wallet is best choice to keep your digital asset than software wallet. Wishing the best for him to regain strength and courage to move on and do his job again to earn some even just a little.
