Wait at least another decade.
Technology always catches up with us.
By the way, in 2030 the value of 1 BTC is way above $50.000

Can you post the bitcoin address with 1000+ bitcoins?
I can't find it on BlockChain but surely one of the other block explorers would have a list of the top wallets hodling >1000 BTC and it would be easy enough to narrow down those that have been dormant since 2011 to give credence or debunk the OP's story? I believe that because of the discussion in this thread, it is most likely the OPs account was hacked or otherwise compromised, and that the hard drive being described does not exist. It would also be very cheap to bruteforce the HDD if it is encrypted as the OP describes, and anyone would be crazy to part with the HDD for as little as the OP is asking for. If the OP was telling the truth about the contents of his HDD, I believe it is most likely the coins would be spread among many addresses, probably from mining using his computer. I would believe the inability to prove/disprove the OPs claim is an additional red flag that should discourage anyone from doing business with him. |

He can not LOL Read the OP. He is guessing that his hard drive has the wallet file that has the BTC in there. But since he can not remember the password he can not access them. It was a bitcoin core wallet of course. So if all of this is true , so we can be subtract 1000 BTC from the total supply of bitcoins because these btc are lost forever. In reality, btc supply will be much less than 21 Million, if bitcoins keep getting lost.  |

If you are telling the truth, I don't think selling this is a good idea, I'm not an expert but maybe you can hire someone who's expert in the field to recover your password. You should do a face to face meet up, may offer him at least 100 btc if he can get it, or split if you are too kind, then if it's successful, you both benefit, and if not, only the effort is wasted, not 1 BTC.

This is a question of 1000 BTC and not 1 btc only. Even if you have a face to face meeting with the technical person, he might decrypt the harddisk and transfer all the money to his wallet and tell you that there is nothing in the wallet. Again remember it is 1000 BTC which can change the person life and you do not have to work to earn the living for the rest of your life, so greediness will be a major factor here. |

Its hard to believe that someone who has been into Bitcoin for such a long time never signed up to this forum and participated in it especially considering you have an incredible amount of money stored in there. If you can remember the sort of characters you used then you could potentially bruteforce that hard drive and I think it would be worth investing a few hundred bucks in that.
OP's account registration date was June 09, 2011 so OP was definetely around during bitcoin's early days. However the claim is dodgy. If not impossible, maybe OP should try to decypher or find someone to decypher the hard drive, rather than selling it for bits on the bitcoin. It could be any random cyphered hard drive that you buy and $390 is expensive for a hard drive.  Not saying this is what happened, but another possibility is the BCT account could have been resold. |

I think the OP account could not have been sold because its a newbie account and no one will be interested to buy a newbie. However it could be that OP might have high ranked accounts including this newbie one, however this discussion is just irrelevant. |

A very cheap price for that money inside your hard drive. Well your claim is highly doubtful. So make your story more believable. My advise to you is that you should have someone reputable to give testimony on your behalf.

OP is already 1 month offline and didnt say a word nor updates about this sale or maybe he just decided to open up his hard drive on his own. Imagine on how much that 1000+ btc cost and if you do know you can open it then 1BTC price of the hard drive is just a piece of dust but the question is, do really have that harddrive with btc on it? No one will buy if password still cant be remembered. |

No one will buy if password still cant be remembered. If there was a way of proving there is Bitcoin on that hard drive and he could demonstrate he is the rightful owner then a 10 character password could be bruteforced especially if the bruteforcing was left for a number of years because that amount of Bitcoin is worth the time and electricity costs that come with bruteforcing it. |
