I am selling my wallet—I’m offering a reward for cracking the password.

[Chris_Farli]

I am selling my own genuine wallet from back then—at a nominal price—and including hints regarding the password I definitely used.

I used to like writing everything in capital letters, using underscores,
and adding my birth year or an Arabic word at the end;
I never wrote down the full passwords so they wouldn't be stored in plain text,
though I don't remember exactly what I put at the end—here are a few combinations found in my notes; perhaps these are the beginnings of passphrases:

Chris_Home_Wallet_
Transfer_from_Chris_Home_Wallet_
Chris_Farli_
HP734_Wallet_Card_

You don't necessarily have to buy the file; you can try a hash-based recovery method.
I tried many times without success; I used the paid program Bitcoin Password Recovery, but it doesn't support the Arabic keyboard layout.
If you're interested, feel free to ask questions in this thread or email me—I'll answer all your questions.

So this safe ?

So this safe ?

Yes, it is safe; using a graphics card is recommended. I have a laptop with a weak graphics card, and the speed is 800 passwords per second—which is very slow.

Do you have the bitcoin address?

Have you tried contacting the only service that has proven to be completely legitimate and has helped many people gain access to their coins? If the wallet is really yours, it costs you nothing to try - you only pay a fee if the job is successfully completed.

I’m planning to write to them, but I have reservations about sharing wallet data: if something goes wrong, an unauthorized person could gain access to it. I haven't found a way to send just the hash—the site requires uploading the actual file, which isn't safe.

The man has a very good reputation and as far as I know he has helped many people over the years. Try to agree on the best (most secure) way, and if he manages to crack your password, the reward will be far greater than selling your wallet to someone.

That’s right; since I can’t handle this on my own, I wrote him a letter. I think he’ll provide specific recommendations.
