One thing can be done if after this incident you have done nothing to computer then you can just download the data recovery software and do recovery

Most of the recovery software destroy the format and file system to the file that was coded in like UTF or Unicode.So there is more likely the chances of file being destroyed while the recovery.

You can, however, dd whatever's on the disk to a program to look for memory that looks like private keys. Assuming they were unencrypted. Dooglus has posted a program that does just this. If I were trying to recover keys from a disk, the first thing I'd do is make a copy of the entire memory on the disk before using it any further, that way if there is an unencrypted private key on the disk, it won't get written over.

First thing is what wallet you are using, if you are using online wallet then you can contact to the web support and get help,

No wallet either online or offline can help you recover anything if you don't have access to your private key which is OP's case.Its clearly mentioned in FAQ section of every online wallet.

First thing is what wallet you are using, if you are using online wallet then you can contact to the web support and get help, but the way you are asking question i think it should be Desktop Wallet, and if you have lost the Wallet.dat file or Passphrase then just forget the wallet as without this you can do nothing.

One thing can be done if after this incident you have done nothing to computer then you can just download the data recovery software and do recovery , if you are lucky then you will get your data. One important thing dont download and install the software in the same hdd which you are going to do data recovery go for separate hdd and then connect the data recovery hdd and start the recovery process.

I hope you are using an online wallet that is operated by a company, like Circle or Coinbase. They still holding the private keys and all you need to do is to prove your are the owner.

If it is a wallet controlled by yourself, the chance of getting the bitcoin out is low. Please provide more information on the wallet that you are using so that people can help you out.

The only way you can recoverthe coins is that if you have access to your private key which is you said you don't because you lost your copy. There is no one else who can help you with this. Next time always secure your backups. Keep not only one but keep a separate backup jut incase things like this happens.

What type of wallet where you using ? bitcoin core? electrum? blockchain.info?
if it was bitcoin core and the like you might have a backup of the wallet.dat files
what you need is your private keys they are in the wallet.dat file

Just writing some code

Quote from: yosims on April 12, 2016, 02:58:02 PM

So I had 3 wallets all linked together. But lost them. My oldroomate tossed my paper with the seads. I've got the password to one and amounts and old bitcoin addresses that sent to it as we'll as a couple that got mony Sent from it. Is there anyway to talk to an admin and work on recovery that way?

There is no "admin" of Bitcoin.

What wallet are you using?

Do you have your wallet files? If you do, the best you can do is to try to think of what your other passwords could possibly be. Whatever you think of, make sure you write it down so that you don't forget it. Then you can try recovering it by brute forcing the passwords.

If you do not have the wallet files, then nothing can be done about this as your private keys are lost.
