Talked to my wife. She tried to install a voice changer software yesterday from a link on twitter and it didn't install. This is a windows 11 PC. I see something new called WingFtpServer as a startup program. That has to be it. C'est la vie Scan your computer and try to find anything suspicious. Other apps, and links, if your accounts connected to your pc are exposed. If you see something new, try to confirm if it has something to do with losing your Bitcoin. It may be the app that was installed, or there are other links that were opened by your wife without knowing that it's a suspicious link. See your browsing history for more clues/evidence.

OP, request logs from your internet-provider on the day of the incident. the faster the better - logs are not stored forever. you can analyze outgoing traffic and understand exactly where the leak occurred

There may be some less security to your wallet that is the result of hacked. As you didn't put some strong password may be in cade you have found it, you should go fort he recovery option. But still confusing how more btc as 11 btc you hold in a single wallet.. It should be in different wallets because if it was present in the different wallets then there will be less risks to the losing all money even if one or two wallets hacked the the remaining funds will be safe.
Although the wallet you used for the bitcoin may be some software related to malicious viruses or hack attack that due to which you lost them. BTW I feel sad for you, losing this type of amount is quite harming for a person who has already been in trading and the way today the market is understandable.

Yesterday I lost 11 BTC from my Bitcoin Core 25.0 wallet. The wallet wasn't open at the time. I don't know how it happened. Lots of emotions right now.
One of the safest means to have your bitcoin under your control is in using bitcoincore, but when things like this happened, then there must be something hidden and unexposed to you, who ever have access to your system aside your wife, who taught you about how to make use of bitcoincore, do you also browse the internet with that same system you used for your wallet, how do you safe keep your wallet private keys, all of these are means through which you could have been attacked without knowing as i guess.

edit to add:
Definitely not my wife. We live in a rural setting. She doesn't have the computer knowledge to even launch the wallet. This was an external hack.
I first noticed when I logged into Koinly and saw my BTC balance was reduced. I then launched Bitcoin Core and it was about a week behind. Showed my 11btc as it updated, then hit the date of the hack and it went to zero. Wallet is encrypted and appears to work fine. PC is turned off now and hard drives will be wiped. This definitely sucks, but not the end of the world. Opportunity for others to learn or be reminded from my mistakes.
Also, the coins have not moved from hacker address
- Don't you have a hardware wallet or Trezor? because if you don't have that, it will come out as if you are careless. 11 BTC is not a small amount, to be honest. If I had that amount of bitcoin, for sure, I would buy a Trezor and a hardware wallet to make sure my bitcoin was safe. Now, if you have a Trezor or any hardware wallet, the question will be: how did that happen? because you're the only one who knows seed phrases, right? You also did not mention whether your 11 bitcoins are stored in a noncustodial or hardware wallet.

11 BTC is good amount so why you don't use Electrum ( Desktop wallet or hardware wallet)
Check your pc other installer software and virus file. A question from me do you click any social median inbox link or and porn site app or video links visit ?

Unfortunately, there's nothing you can do since Bitcoin transactions are irreversible. You just have to learn from the mistake and move on.
Thank God people are starting to understand how flawed BTC is. We are recommend everyone to take a closer look at our coin: Bitcoin SV I think it will be useful for everyone to read this article: Reversing Illicit Transactions on Bitcoin Is SimpleP.S: BTC - is BTC. Real Bitcoin - is Bitcoin Satoshi Vision clever but since the op has yet to clearly prove this loss. it is possible you are the op. and all was written to lead to your post.

Well, I'm going to differ from the general opinion of the thread, as someone who has 11 bitcoins and is so careless guarding them doesn't give me much sympathy. I might feel more sorry for someone from a poor country who has $400 in bitcoin and gets robbed. In any case, the bastards are the hackers but now there is nothing left for the OP as he said but to learn his lesson and move on.

I see something new called WingFtpServer as a startup program. That has to be it. C'est la vie that’s a huge amount and i can’t even express how shocked i am feeling right now there’s no point in condescending you for your past decisions but may this be a lesson for you to learn if i had this amount of bitcoin i wouldn’t store it in a hot wallet the internet is very risky and even with a secure system sometimes hacking still cannot be prevented another thing i would advise is for you to get a separate device solely for cryptocurrency social media are full of suspicious links and if you’re using the same device you have your bitcoin stored in to surf social media and download softwares then you’ve already made a mistake terribly sorry for you but keep on moving forward!

First things first, why would you store 11 btc on a hot wallet ? 11 bitcoin is a lot of money, and you should either have a hardware wallet for that purpose or if you are a bit techy, an air gapped device (with no access to the internet) should be configured for your bitcoins. 11 bitcoin is a life's money for someone and there are places in the world where you do not have to work for the rest of your life if you have 11 bitcoins with you ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) I would formulate the question differently: why store 11 bitcoin in one wallet? It would make more sense to distribute these assets across different wallets, or even across different types (HW manufacturers) of wallets. Diversification, my friend, comes first. Diversification of risks, as many have repeated many times. It may well be that at the time of purchase, these 11 bitcoin were not a significant amount and OP neglected to keep them safe, for which he seriously paid. It's a pity. It’s true that OP should have concentrated all his efforts on the safety of these assets, but now the past can't be returned. Despite such impressive losses, life goes on. I wish OP to grow stronger.

This is close to half a million dollars lost,ouch !! This was a big loss whichever way we look at this but wanted to ask to help someone not go through the same loss in the future without any finger pointing or playing the blame game . Some questions for better understanding of the situation: - Any other people that have access to your computer besides you and your wife?
- Is the PC always connected to the computer?
- Saw an early post on the thread of you using Altcoins too, do you have desktop wallets of these?
- Do you download stuff on this computer
- Do you have an antivirus on the PC
Otherwise, sorry for your loss buddy!

If you had such a large amount of money then why would you keep it in a place with regulare internet access. Moreover, why would you give your machine to your wife because it was her mistake to install a third party software. You shouldn't have let your wife use your machine. Keep a separate machine for regular work or you should have definitely used a hardware wallet instead.

If op were the holder of our coins, then the stolen funds of the would be returned back to the victim and wallets of these hackers would be immediately blocked Sucks.
This really sucks
Wow that really sucks.
I completely agree with all of you. BTC - is irreversible sucks. since the op has yet to clearly prove this loss
I think that op is worried about his privacy. Most likely he will not reveal his wallet address. I don’t see any other reasons why op gives out so little information

11 Bitcoin ![Shocked](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/shocked.gif) this is really too big amount in present bitcoin price. Why don't you take care of them where we are worried about 0.5 bitcoins where to hold them and where they will be safe. How did I decide to put 11 bitcoins in an online wallet? You should have held them in an offline hardware wallet so maybe you wouldn't have lost so much. Such a big loss really hurts us a lot. And when it is through Bitcoin it is really sad.

Omg damm what the big amount loss! So much money has been lost that you should keep your sanity now and put yourself first. How the hacker team collected your wallet information is a matter of thinking. Moreover you might have setup some software from which the hacker team entered your laptop/pc configuration.

Are there actually any mentally retarded individuals using your "TRUE SHITCOIN SCAM" where you have such ability? Or are you trolling us? Alright, just forget about what I said, man I lost it for a second, Ok, now tell me, do you guys use secp256k1 in your "true" bitcoin network? If yes, then I might visit you guys soon to check if there is any holes in your blockchain.😉

Actually you should stop posting anything other than signed messages using the private key, in fact I might report this topic to be trashed if you fail to do that. If you have funds in your wallet, transfer them somewhere safe, and sign a message then post them here.
