Please help with my stolen account

[kr106]

Hello,

I'm not sure where to get help about this.

My original Bitcointalk account 'kr105' ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=12229 ) that I registered on 2011 was stolen sometime around 2017.

I realized about this some time ago and I tried to recover it using my email, of course it was changed.

Then I found this post https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5089777.0 where theymos explains that I should email recoveries...@bitcointalk.org with the request.

I did. But then someone replied back that I should provide crypto-proof that I'm the original owner, I did not have any of my old wallets by then so I had to give up.

A couple of weeks ago I found an old laptop and surprise! My old wallet was there (sadly, 0 BTC on it). I was able to provide the crypto proof, I sent a message similar to this to that email address:

Code:

-----BEGIN BITCOIN SIGNED MESSAGE-----
My account kr105 on bitcointalk.org has been hacked/lost. The current date is 2026-03-13. This forum thread is https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5577262

-----END BITCOIN SIGNED MESSAGE-----

Here is the unedited post where I posted that address: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=78945.0

(This was my 45 BTC loan request from May 2012, where I posted address 1EM7BWbNKa9CanFiYpzsyY2HM7TTiN2ayZ)

But no answer yet, I tried PM theymos on the forum, but no luck.

Are there any other admins here that can help me? Any help or guidance would be highly appreciated!

It is not matter whether your Bitcoin address staked in the forum now has bitcoin or not. The matter is whether you still have access to that address, and can sign a message with a private key of that address.

I was able to provide the crypto proof, I sent a message similar to this to that email address:

Code:

I verified your signed message successfully. Now you can wait for forum admins to verify it, and perhaps ask for further information for your account recovery.

Note
This part does not belong to the signed message and it should not be put in the code block.

I'd say email the recovery address again. Your signed message should be enough to recover your account.

After recovering, you should delete the posts you didn't make so it's all you again. There's a negative DT-tag from Veleor, who hasn't been online in years. I only now see his last posts were about the invasion of Ukraine, and then he didn't come back online....
Best I can do for you is add neutral feedback once you've recovered your account and sign a message confirming it.

How long ago did you send them (the account recoveries team) the email?
You should ideally wait for a week for a response from them if it was just a couple of days back. If all the information checks out, I am pretty confident you will be able to recover your account.

Theymos is not in charge of recovering accounts, so it is very likely that you will not receive any response from him. It's the other admin, Cyrus, and the team, but only PM them or bump this thread when one week has elapsed.

Fixed, thanks!

How long ago did you send them (the account recoveries team) the email?

The email with the crypto proof was sent on February 19th, 2026. Then I pinged them on the same email thread on February 23rd, and then on March 11th.


Thanks

so you now control kr105 correct?

are you cleaning up the bad posts from 2017 to now?

As for now, not yet. He said that the email address was changed by the hacker, and when he tried to recover the account sometime back, they needed a message signed from an old BTC address of his. He shared the details, but the team has not yet responded to him in recent times to have his account recovered.

Nope, not yet

it looks like he went idle in 2014 and it was stolen in 2017

all his old posts in 2014 seem to be english only

i quoted five posts that show the language shift.

he is likely legit.

if he does get control and deletes the many posts from 2017 on i will give a neutral and refer to here.

i think he is legit

as suspected the posts quotes i did are being deleted by the forign language mod.

likely the fake owner of k105 reported to the mod.

It seems that I am crying more than the bereaved here. How can you find a wallet from 2012 (where you requested a loan of 45 BTC) and you could not find even .5 BTC in it?

There is a reason why bitcoin price surge in 2017
from three thousand us dollar to five thousand then goes up to 20k
during that time bitcoin is Introduce to public  and they are slowly
getting interest to invest on crypto , suddenly it started a bull run
and the public goes crazy over it excitement and everything
they buy bitcoins to hoard, then a news breakout china is banning bitcoin and exchanges, also closing mining firms, all kinds of fud
release over the internet, and the price declines
Now bitcoin is under fire again with Bakkt first day of trade price crumble again but slowly regain, they say october is the time that it will reach 16k are we gonna see 20k+ by november ?
feel free to share your thoughts dont be rude to everyone smile

I don't think so we are moving slowly and sometimes the price is dropping, we're like in a limbo
$20k is out of the question this year I don't want to say it's impossible but the pieces are not adding up for us to think that there's a possibility
Let's just be happy that we out of the $5k level danger level, maybe next year holds a lot of promise, or still danger, all I know is we are still in the adoption period.

I totally agree that we’re still in the adoption period. Many people still has no idea about BTC or many of them have some doubts and hesitations about the future of crpto. We still need time people to understand all the benefits and quality of Btc. On the other hand, i don’t think Btc to hit $ 20k in the coming months. It seems like the market needs some balance first. I’m hoping to see better things in the next 2 years tho..

Making investment by using your savings is never an easy decision. All kind of investment methods have some potential risks. But i think the most risky part of crypto is volatility, prices can start to drop suddenly. You never know what is waiting for you tomorrow because there are so many aspects from all around the world can affect the price. But i don’t like to talk negative stuff only. Crypto market is full of surprises and taking some risks might help you to get some earnings in the end.
