You're better off trying to brute force the wallet or find a trusted guy who could do it for you. You have to pinpoit which wallet you have though.

TBH, trading wallet files has been sus for the most part IMO—as buyers are at a disadvantage. For instance, in another software people could create encrypted wallet files which is actually empty or download random wallet files from known dump websites + craft their own fake story. I personally stay away from it.

I used Trust Wallet and have a partial memory of the password, but I haven’t been able to unlock it. The account holds Bitcoin
Some questions for you.
What guarantees will you only sell the wallet file to one person?
Also, how can anyone trust you that you won't remember the password and move Bitcoin from it?

What you're saying is strange because, at that time, Trust Wallet was only available on smartphones.

Trust Wallet launched a version of its wallet for PC in November 2022, as a browser extension compatible with Google Chrome, Brave, Opera, and Microsoft Edge. This extension allows users to manage their cryptocurrencies directly from their PC.


Maybe you are right, I don't know the correct name, it's orange and white. I thought it was called Trust Wallet.

Any wallet that you have forgotten the password or seedphrase is useless as seeing yourself in a dream driving car but physical you are walking.
If you can't access your wallet due to how you may have forgotten password or seed phrase I don't think that same wallet will be that useful to the buyer since you the original owner can not access the wallet whom else do you think can access it? Definitely no one because they don't have the real access to the wallet, and who knows if those assets inside of it are valuable assets or they are long gone dead coin.

If you're only holding 'partial' of the password then it's not going to be accessible until you have it. There is no sense in selling it to anybody with no idea of the other part of the password you have made. Because if these wallets are sellable then everyone should have sold most of their old wallets instead of selling what's inside of it that has probably gotten a larger value of holdings in there. Until you can remember the password, that's the only way it will have a sense of monetizing it and if I were you, if I successfully remembered the password, I'd take what's inside of it, the BTC you have in there and sell it to exchanges if that's what you want since you're trying to sell the wallet. Because with that, there is no risk of being scammed of selling the wallet online and we don't really sell the wallets we own.

A way from avoiding getting scammed, and trying to sell the wallet securely, why would someone want to buy a wallet that you completely forgot the password? It doesn't make sense since they can't access it at all without the password, does it?

Do you know part of the password of the wallet file you are attempting to sell? There could be a possibility of brute forcing it if a few characters are missing. Which wallet software were you using at that time, and which coin/coins are contained in the account?

Hi everyone,

My name is Elias, and I’m from Spain. I’m new to forums and only posting here because ChatGPT suggested this might be a good place to find advice.

I recently found my old computer and realized it has a cryptocurrency wallet I used back in 2021. At the time, I bought some crypto, but later switched to a new computer and forgot all about it. Now I’ve rediscovered the wallet but can’t remember the password.

Since I don’t know anyone with expertise in crypto, I don’t know what to do. ChatGPT suggested that selling the wallet might be an option, but I want to avoid hackers or scams.

Can a wallet like this be sold? If yes, how can I do it securely?

Thank you for your time and any guidance you can provide!
