Satoshi Help!

[abjinny_bluetwoseven]

Hellow, Satoshi Nakamoto.

I am contacting you after a very long time.

I lost my wallet in 2009, so is there any way to recover or retrieve it?

I know the private key exactly.

Hellow, Satoshi Nakamoto.

Satoshi Nakamoto left years ago.

I lost my wallet in 2009, so is there any way to recover or retrieve it?

I know the private key exactly.

If you have Bitcoin private key, you can import it to many wallet, do it offline.

You know the private key exactly or you have the private key?
What is the name of the bitcoin wallet you used?

I believe that your research should be about how to import that private key that you have, not trying to contact who is no more active on the forum, you aren't going to get a reply from Satoshi Nakamoto himself.

Don't get scammed, it's likely that you will start receiving PM on this forum right now since you have private key, do not give it up for anybody.

Looks like OP is new here because tell me why he would think that Satoshi Nakamoto will give him a reply here? It doesn't make any sense if you ask me. The thing is not about contacting Satoshi Nakamoto because it's clueless, it should be about discussing and sorting out means to retrieve your wallet. Secondly he just have to be extremely careful after he made his intentions known about retrieval of of his lost wallets, PMs will definitely be flying in and some of them would persuade him to send them his private keys which he should be recalcitrant and know how to deal with them.

Hello.

As a Korean who does not speak English, it was very difficult for me to sign up and write a post.

I thought this would be the most appropriate place to leave a message asking Satoshi Nakamoto for help.

Since Satoshi Nakamoto is very responsible, I am sure he will contact me.

There is Korean section in this forum where you can ask your questions in Korean: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=82.0

Bitcoin is different from everything else you are used to. It is not some centralized company with an owner who would provide tech support and do recoveries. It is decentralized and you are responsible for your own keys and security.

Bitcoin is not from a centralized company with an owner, a group of co-founders, who are able to powerfully stop the project, blockchain operation, freeze bitcoin funds, censor Bitcoin transactions, or reverse transactions.

With Bitcoin it's very simple
It's your private key, it's your bitcoin
It's your wallet mnemonic seed, it's your bitcoin

People have to choose good Bitcoin wallet to use, then use wallet rightly from creation to backup.

It looks like it? It's obvious OP is new here or at least hasn't been here in years, the account's registration date should tell you that much, it's not something you should be surprised about.

It doesn't make any sense if you ask me. The thing is not about contacting Satoshi Nakamoto because it's clueless, it should be about discussing and sorting out means to retrieve your wallet.

Getting the wallet back might just be next to impossible, sometimes the best thing to do is to just forget about it, getting back a wallet lost since 2009, I wonder what took OP so long to start looking for a way to get it back.

The wallet wasn't labeled "Bitcoin."

The wallet had a different name.

There were two names, but... they weren't Bitcoin.

Assuming you truly possess a backup of the private key that contains your old bitcoins, simply download Electrum and restore your wallet there (I recommend doing this on offline mode).

The real Satoshi would not reach out to you after 2010; if anyone claiming to be Satoshi contacts you privately, they are certainly a fake.

Until now, I did not know who Satoshi Nakamoto was.

Two years ago, I learned that Satoshi Nakamoto is the creator of Bitcoin.

I would like to communicate with Mr. Satoshi, but there seems to be no way to do so.

[notocactus]

Since Satoshi Nakamoto is very responsible, I am sure he will contact me.

Satoshi Nakamoto left both the forum and Bitcoin community. No ones know who is Satoshi Nakamoto.

His account satoshi was security locked. He can not access his account again if he won't sign a PGP signature.

Will "satoshi" ever login again?

Do you think "satoshi" will ever just randomly log in one day and post something?

His account is locked, so no. If he wants to claim his account, he'll have to contact me with a PGP signature.

I would like to communicate with Mr. Satoshi, but there seems to be no way to do so.

There are people around here who could help just as much as Satoshi could.  He simply created Bitcoin, he does not have any power over it.

If you know the Private Key then it can be recovered.  If all you have is that you know you had Bitcoin at some point, it is time to either look through your basement or attic for some old Hard Disks and collaborate with a professional for data recovery to try and get it back, or if you do not have any recoverable data then simply move on as your Bitcoin can not be pulled out of thin air.

The last time Satoshi Nakamoto visited this forum he founded was exactly on December 13, 2010, 04:45:41 PM.

Maybe you'll wait a little longer to witness his miracle return so you can get the response you seek, but if you can't, then be more explicit on how you lost your wallet so forum members can know how best to help you recover it, that's if it's still recoverable though.

[Mr_Brilliant$]

Since 2019 and you still have basic knowledge of how Bitcoin operates. What have you being doing since?

Satoshi created it to be decentralised, even he can't help you.

But you have the most important asset of a Bitcoin wallet which is the private key. You can use that to access your Bitcoin.

But with the way you came to ask this question, who knows whether you are playing with us, or you just want baby-ish attention.

This miracle could happen sooner if we could somehow lure him back to the forum.
But how? What could be interesting or tempting enough for him to give up his anonymity?

Read on Wikipedia... [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satoshi_Nakamoto

Two years ago, I learned that Satoshi Nakamoto is the creator of Bitcoin.

Strange, you had bitcoin in 2009, but only two years ago found out who Satoshi Nakamoto is? Before her you went disappeared without looking at the internet?

I would like to communicate with Mr. Satoshi, but there seems to be no way to do so.

Don't expect it... he's been sleeping for His, your bitcoin that claim that if true, consider it lost.

This is neither a lie nor a joke.

I am a Korean who does not speak English. As a retired soldier discharged at the age of 30 due to an injury, I have lived a weary life.

The past 17 years have been truly painful, as I struggled to support my family in society while living with a disability.

This is because I had to silently endure each day simply to provide for my family.

And now, 17 years later, I am here waiting for Satoshi Nakamoto.

The more time I spend on this Forum, the more I am wondering if I am part of a community or a cult because this sounds like some of you are waiting for some kind of Rapture.

[CryptSafe]

If you feel waiting for Satoshi is the best option for you, nobody is against it but know this and have peace that Satoshi is not coming back to this platform anytime soon
What I expected you to be doing is to do your research on the key's you have with you and the recommended wallet to use in activating your wallet back to function. This will help you to some extent of accessing your Bitcoin if you truly have it and not wasting your time creating attention here attracting scammers to your DM.
Lastly, do not respond to pm that claims to be Satoshi here. Already a reputable member provided the real Satoshi account here for you to see it for yourself so do not fall for any scam via PM offering to assist you recover your Bitcoin.
