Wallet Encryption Password Lost - 10 BTC!

[casperround]

Hi everone. Well one of my bitcoin wallets, the one with the most in 10+Btc, I forgot the Encryption password (Passkey).
Are they any BruitForce programs out there?
I've tried pywallet.py although haven't succeed.
Anyone who manages to help me retrieve it can have 2BTC!

There are some options available that may help.

This thread has a lot of good info in it, you may want to take a look.

btcrecover is a tool that can help you recover your password, if you remember enough about it. The Quick Start is here. It's not necessarily the easiest to get configured and running, but it is free and open source (FYI I'm biased... I'm the author of that tool, let me know if you have any questions about it).

There are also a few individuals in the Services section that are willing to help for a fee, you may want to search over there too (and also search around for their reputations; there are some with some good past history).

Hmm, I have the encrypted Primary Secret Key. Is there anyway to decrypt that? I heard it was Base64 but had no luck

[b1acksn0w]

I would be glad to assist you, will need to ask for more details though

[casperround]

Well, I have

   "ckey": [],
    "defaultkey": "",
    "keys": [
        {
            "addr": "",
            "compressed": true,
            "encrypted_privkey": "",
            "pubkey": "",
            "reserve": 1
        },
        {


All the keys (Yes I removed them for protection)
And I some how need to decrypt it. Or if anyone can decrypt my actual wallet.dat to remove the passphrase I can give them 2Btc!

There are a few people who have posted threads in the Service section. I believe they can help you to decrypt the key without having access to your coins (but I may be mistaken).

Search around.

WT Bad luck
this amount might have changed my life

By the way.. Gud luck. Try to write the pass keys in a separate dairy and keep it on a safe place
Actually the amount is verrry big for me

[alexrossi]

Approximately, how many characters is long the password?

[casperround]

Yep thats the reason I do not want to lose that amount.

The password is around 30-40 characters with uppercase/lowercase/numbers

Got skype? I can help you recover it.
PM me your skype.

[antonpans]

30-40 letters...i would be borred to use such a big password to be honest. I think all advices been posted already. Just watchout who you work with. Im sure the chances to recover it are below 0.01% but good luck

[yenzae0215]

30-40 characters password gives you a big problem.. if you're at home better to use about 10 characters next time 

sorry for your lost hope you can get it back

Sorry, this wallet is NSA-proof for at least the next 50 years...

It can be brute force if you know some of the key pass or some miss type letters, but if you don`t remember any of it then say goodbye to your coins. Good Luck, just be careful when dealing with someone.

[casperround]

Does anyone know any bruteforce programs for the wallet.dat, that can use a GPU?

I believe Wallet Recovery Services uses a GPU bruteforcing program. You could try asking to see if Dave (the owner) would be willing to send you the program. I have a suspicion he wouldn't want to send it over though, because it's custom coded for him.

[carlosiness]

brutaforce method could take many many years, depends on the password complexity.
i don't know any programs, i think it should be written special for your purpose...

[casperround]

I've messaged Dave via the service and said I would happily pay him, no reply yet.
I had a thought, if I export the dat as a .txt, then change the encrypted private key to a new one that I know, then export to a .dat
Would that work? Like overwriting the original encrypted private key?
