Man, you take from me lot of time and I don't see any donation. If you not given nothing , why then put up my donation Bitcoin address. Smallest donation by BTC system are 5430 Satosi, so do it. Or you wanted let everybody know how much I have there. Why not you show yours Pay Check man?? I hate Homos!

I dont take your time, you come here. I dont force you.

Dust is currently 2730 satoshi, but I dont see a reason to donate a single one to you.

Or you wanted let everybody know how much I have there. Why not you show yours Pay Check man??

Im sure you can do your own research and find a couple addresses I control.

I hate Homos!

Are you not a human yourself? Dont bother answering this will be me last post towards you.

To Paycheck man,
I was wounder and become inclusion I will put Bitcoin address out , where located 12 BTC, but that will cost for you paycheck man 20 Euros = 0.0597 BTC,
and then if you see there still have 12 BTC, you say sorry and add 1 Euro = 0.00030 BTC to my 1KNxTij6FFN2Y7HrpPXTGxz79zWsP6ZKgk
And you are forgiven.
Then you send me 1 BTC and we do Deal and everybody happy.
I hope you don't start again find some excuses, you are by that way DOING  just MASTERMIND.
I know, I know, I love you too...

On OS X (10.8.5) I get this in Terminal when trying to run btcrecover on my wallet (double clicking the btcrecover.py file only starts Xcode, so I drag and drop it in to the terminal):

Ms-Mac-Pro:~ m$ /Users/m/Desktop/btcrecover-master/btcrecover.py --wallet wallet.dat --tokenlist tokens.txt --autosave savefile
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/m/Desktop/btcrecover-master/btcrecover.py", line 4952, in <module>
    parse_arguments(sys.argv[1:])

    file = open(filename, mode)
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'tokens.txt'

I can't understand the error message.
The tokens.txt is placed in the btcrecover-master folder, I made it plain text.

Edit:
I tried some more times and the Terminal error is this now this:

Ms-Mac-Pro:btcrecover-master m$ /Users/m/Desktop/btcrecover-master/btcrecover.py --wallet wallet.dat --tokenlist tokens.txt --autosave savefile

Any script authors or white hats interested in making a hundred BTC or so, send me a message.

I sent you a PM.

I've since discovered that it's possible to test whether I've cracked your password without having any of your encrypted keys.

If you can just give us your encrypted master key, the salt, the number of iterations, and your best guess at what you think the passphrase is, we can attempt to find a passphrase that decrypts the master key and know when we've done it, but without getting access to any of your funds.

To get the information we need, get a copy of Gavin's bitcointools: https://github.com/gavinandresen/bitcointools and make the following change in wallet.py:

Code:

-      print("Master Key %d"%(d['nID']) + ": 0x"+ short_hex(d['crypted_key']) +
-            ", Salt: 0x"+ short_hex(d['salt']) +
+      print("Master Key %d"%(d['nID']) + ": 0x"+ long_hex(d['crypted_key']) +
+            ", Salt: 0x"+ long_hex(d['salt']) +

Then close bitcoin-qt and run:

Code:

./dbdump.py --wallet | grep Master.Key

from the bitcointools directory.

It should print a single line, like this:

Code:

Master Key 1: 0x47994851532eb7479886f5dc3c923df2d8a57d1f687d0d41808dee394b50259b209e587f677a3b69db1448ecb18e0d39, Salt: 0xa66b5e971bbd8106. Passphrase hashed 95913 times with method 0 with other parameters 0x

Using this, and bitcoin-qt's crypter.cpp, anyone can verify that the passphrase is 'abc'.  But since nobody has a copy of the wallet I encrypted with 'abc', nobody has access to the coins in the wallet.

You should try to contact dave -> http://www.walletrecoveryservices.com/

or open your own thread with more information. Maybe we can help you to help yourself.

I need a help guys, I forgot password of my wallet (maybe part of it I know, some words for instance, but not sure about the order).

I tried with Revelion scripts but when I run brute script it says "incorrect RPC user/pass". I am running latest bitcoin core, and Revelion scripts are a bit old, hence there might be some incompatibilities. Anyhow, I manually made bitcoin.conf file and set the same user ans pass as in script, but script still won't run.

Do you have any other solution that works with latest bitcoin core?

I also tried this script https://github.com/gurnec/btcrecover/blob/master/TUTORIAL.md#windows--bitcoin-core-multibit-classic-or-electrum , script itself runs but no password match (I tried with all "possible" words that could be within the password but with no result), hence I doubt it actually works.

btcrecover works, I can confirm it; it's the one I use and it certainly works. The most probably thing, is that you are not putting enough words on the password, or not the right ones. Other possibility is that your wallet.dat file is corrupted.

I can help you, just check my signature and if you agree, contact me.

Hope you can get your coins back. Cheers.

Might been said before. Didn't bother to read the complete thread TL;DR
I've been looking into this tool in the past https://github.com/gurnec/btcrecover
Might be helpful.

I've got a friend with the same problem, but the wallet only contains 0.22BTC
We did not bother too much, yet.

edit: ok ok, at least I could have read the last post before me :-)
I see you've already been advised about btcrecover

[fran2k]

btchris, is there any btcrecover official thread yet, isn't?

I configured easily the GPU accelerated recovery over Windows 7 64bit. Nowadays I used as recommended all 32bit stuff, I will try the 64bit and Linux configuration later.

The setup is: Asrock H81 Pro BTC, Intel G3220, 2x 4GB RAM, 3x MSI R9 280X Twin Frozr with stock clocks.

Best results were with all combinations of --global-ws 32768, 65536 and --local-ws 64, 128, 256 averaging 11.25 kP/s. Pretty fast stuff.

Anyone have some other benchmarks to compare?

Did you test it against a bitcoin core wallet?

I got 1.65 kP/s with a single GeForce GTX 970 using --global-ws 65536 and --local-ws 1024, but somehow the password is not found, see screenshot below.

Yes, it was tested with bitcoin core.

Also getting 13-13.5 kP/s now with this configuration: Gigabyte Z87X-UD3H, Intel G3250, 4GB RAM 1600, SSD Kingston V300, 5x HD7950 with stock clocks and USB 3.0 risers. Which renders 2600-2700 P/s per HD7950.

Will be any improvement in performance by connecting the GPUs directly to the motherboard ? I don´t know if the bus is important for btcrecover.

Any working code for altcoins (POS scrypt) ??

[btchris]

Little update: do you think it's better a 1060 or a 480x for btcrecover? the 1070 is a little bit too expansive. Why would one perform better?

I'm afraid I don't know enough about OpenCL to say which architecture is better... I'll give you what little I do have though.

These are P/s rates from a Bitcoin Classic/XT/Core wallet with an iteration count of 67908.

• 1x 560 Ti: 1070 P/s
• 2x 560 Ti: 2110 P/s
• 1x R9 390: 4470 P/s

(the test numbers for other wallet types are here)

It's an apples-to-oranges comparison, but I'd guess that it points to AMD architecture at being better for this... but it's just a wild guess.

does the size of the ram on the card has much influence? thanks in advance...

For Classic/XT/Core, VRAM makes practically no difference (you just need 64 x --global-ws bytes). For Armory, it makes a big difference.


Edit: I just noticed an old thread by you.... if you have any specific questions, feel free to ask, but in the mean time:

By adding the "--delimiter *" option, "*" is now used as the delimiter between tokens, instead of spaces. This means you can use:

• %[ _] - a single space or underscore (note the space before the _, it may be hard to see)
• %0,1[ _] - 0 - 1 single spaces or underscores, e.g. a single space or underscore or nothing at all

Hope it helps.

You need to navigate to the directory first.

The folder you're currently in is shown before the cursor, i.e.
C:\Users\John> _

If you type "cd bitcoins", your current directory would be set to "C:\Users\John\bitcoins". To go back up a directory, type "cd ..", i.e. to "C:\Users\".

You need to set your current directory to the folder where feathercoin-qt.exe is located. If it helps, on my system that folder is C:\Program Files (x86)\Feathercoin.

SP4RK7, I've tested it and I get a similar error. Currently trying to figure out what I've done wrong, will post in here soon.

Any results for latest Nvidia GPUs ?

[B1tUnl0ck3r]

Any results for latest Nvidia GPUs ?

Very interested too. Would love to see what a amd 480x can do vs a 1070 or 1060. The Amd has more processing unites, and the ram are the same... however it seems that the nvidias hash more. If anyone has the time to do a quick test it would be greatly appreciated.
