Hi all,
In 2013 i purchased some BTC. From the guy that sold me i have recieved some text and password which i needed to decrypt and then create wallet. I had instructions but deleted form HDD. Can somebody help me how can I decrypt this text in usable format? I know that I needed to download some program from github if I recall but I do not know the details.
I'm not sure I get this. Have you received the text + password from the person who sold you the bitcoins? Does that mean that he has them as well?
I hope not
I was long time ago. I remeber that I recieved instructions on what to do with this text. I forgot that I have text and pass and even deleted it from hd. Last week i managed to restore file but still searching for this instructions
Maybe the lenght of this "text", the first character, the last character and potentially some description of the character set might be usefull (for example, only capital letters, alphanumeric,...).
Don't post the rest of the "text" tough, don't give it using a PM either... In case your seller used a weak encryption scheme, sharing the "text" might lead to loss of funds...
I'm not sure if anybody will be able to help you, but the description "some text" defenatly isn't enough...
The text has 76 signs. Starts with AAQ and has + sign. Also has upper and lower case and numbers and 12 charecters pass.
Maybe this was some kind of scam but I can not leave potential BTC left.
I have hope until I run out of options or see that balance is 0

Also what I remembered is with this text I somehow create wallet.dat file and then replace it in folder of Bitcoin core wallet.
