😱🫨Lost password of million-dollar Bitcoin wallet found after 10 years

the lost password of the wallet where 43.6 #BTC was stored, which was purchased in 2013 and is worth about $ 3 million at today's prices, was found years later. The one who revealed the password was two hackers who specialized in this field.

He could not access his Bitcoins when the encrypted file was corrupted

A man, whose identity was kept secret and named as Michael, had set up his wallet in 2013 and used the RoboForm platform to create a password. Michael, who did not want to store the password he created in RoboForm due to security concerns, kept it in an encrypted file. After a while, the encrypted file was corrupted and the owner could not access the 20-character password, hence the 43.6 $BTC in the wallet.

According to the video released on Youtube, Michael contacted a hacker named Joe Grand to help in the year 2022. Grand has previously been famous for recovering lost Bitcoins held in a Trezor Tue wallet.

They tried countless times until they found the right password

Grand started working with a friend named Bruno to crack RoboForm's software. They discovered a vulnerability in the password generator of the software. Allegedly, the password was set according to a certain date and time on the computer where the password was created. Although the company closed the vulnerability in 2015, passwords created earlier could be accessed in this way. While Michael does not remember when he created the password, the hackers found that Bitcoins were transferred to the wallet on April 13, 2013. Then, they tried a large number of passwords one by one until they found the correct password.

#Bitcoin will hold until it is 100 thousand dollars

Grand and Bruno, who managed to open the wallet, took part of Michael's Bitcoins. Michael, who also made some sales for himself, still owns $2 million worth of Bitcoin.
