I am not very sure why OP chose to give us the name of the other person though.
I mean it doesn't make sense, it wouldn't make the story more believable.
I believe there must be something that OP doesn't share with us.
In any case, the Bitcoin-related responses were clear, so I agree with locking the thread now.
Topic: How can I recover my Private key (Read 228 times)
Since you don't want to share your story now then you should lock this thread as there's no point in posting here. Although I can check the post about what it i but I'd rather not to since many doesn't believe that the story is true. You did edit your post but did not lock the thread. I suggest you lock it and I agree with Stalker22 that it is too late. If you haven't know, people can check the posts using ninjastic and there are quotes on your post too so other can read it too.
and nobody panics neither care about it.
No one cares probably because no one believes this story is true. As for the responses seen in the thread, it is hard to speak for others but I assume some are taking this topic sarcastically and so are their responses.
Edit : I don't want to share my story anymore
Too late.

The computer I was used to mined Bitcoin in 2010 , is not possible to open (after my accident my father put this computer into that house store room and the house was destroyed in 2016 for making a grocery shop).
I don't get it. Your house was destroyed with the computer being inside the house? Why? Did you father leave it there by mistake? Was the computer good enough to be preserved? I'm sorry about your story, OP. I'm not sure that your story is true or made up and there's no way for you to prove that your story is real. Brute forcing those last 8 characters of your private key would probably take years. Good luck with recovering those old Bitcoins, but I'm pretty skeptical about this.

MarketCap is enough solid that there is any risk on this. You can't know if there are any coins actually not accesible and this can happens with many many early adopters.
Moreover you can't know if OP will ever sold ALL coins in ONE batch.
You can't know even if this story is true (we are all assuming that yes it is true story). Its the basic offer support to other user of bitcoin and despite the coins that they have they deserve it
However I hope to OP best of luck in physical recover and to get back access to wallet.
It is not possible to run that computer again
Is it possible for you to take the hard disk out of the computer, and place it in an external drive case and connect it to another computer?
If the hard disk is not damaged, then you should be able to open that Bitcoin Core wallet since they didn't use passwords back then. You mentioned the house was destroyed, but I don't think they would have sized the belongings along with it.
When I was 16, I was a Student in 9th class. In the holidays , I basically mined bitcoin whole days.
It is not possible to run that computer again
But I have already 44 Characters of my 51 Characters private key from the damaged diary
Thanks for informing me.

Try search in thread puzzle32... last 40 pages, one if a forum member make scrypt for finding lost characters in WIF
Im not recomendatr provide you orivkey 44 characters to any body, they still all coins.

You speak of mining as if it needs constant attention and frequent output from you while it's running. When you say you "enjoyed it too much" and you "mined Bitcoin whole day because I have nothing to do", what exactly do you do?
I'm not mining but I think the amount of Bitcoin you mine isn't about your personal effort or hard work; it's about your hardware.
Anyway, you wrote down your entire private key on a page in your diary and that's all you've got as backup? Is it not possible to recover the hard drive of your old computer? You might be able to retrieve some important wallet files from there despite its damage.
By the way, this kind of case invites bad actors. They might approach you via DM offering services, asking for information, extending help. Be careful. Good luck!

As far as the story is concerned, it's certainly a sad one and I don't want to give life lessons, but you shouldn't even care about Bitcoin since you were given the chance to come back to life. Life is the most important thing.
There is nothing dangerous about trying to get back to bitcoin. I believe one can appreciate life while also trying to get back to living and setting some records straight. He still has a long life to live and he can easily live his days comfortably with the amount of bitcoin he has if he finds it. One thing to note. Please do not offer too many details, I believe you are doing a mistake in offering us way too much information about your case.
I understand your desire to get back to bitcoin but do not get too desperate and start accepting offers that want to guess your private key or open your wallet for you especially if they ask for a fee. Or maybe even not because what you missed is people have turned greedy and selfish and they will take any chance to get something from anyone. So, just be careful.
What an adventure ! ! !
The story is unbelievable but the address exists, it has over 9000 btc and there was no withdrawal from it, if you have most of the private key, for that kind of money it is worth learning some python yourself and writing a program that will check all combinations of missing characters, it is not difficult, you can put something together from ready-made codes on the Internet. Do not give anyone any information about the key over the Internet, even if you use some software, only offline. Good luck.
I don't understand if people above are sarcastic, but someone is saying he's able to litteraly destroy the market with 9000 BTC (almost 1 billion $) he's about to recover and nobody panics neither care about it. I don't understand if they need so much to spam that they post like if they take it like a normal message or if they bet to win something while there are 0.001% chances for this story to be true, but this thread is surrealist TBH.
Thank you. Good wishes for you
Yaluto, thats quite a story about your accident. My condolences for your troubles. Seems you had some good fortune in a bad sitch. Im glad that you are doing better now. Wish I could help get your lost Bitcoins back - thatd be life-changing money! Maybe try brute force hacking like the others said. Fingers crossed you crack the code.
Completed. Thanks for informing me

We did not need to know the full name of the guy who helped you do Bitcoin Mining. Nor did we have to know how his life unfortunately ended. I would advise you to remove this and any other personal information from your original post. Particularly considering the amount lost, it can lead to dire consequences. Some people are way too good at using computers and the Internet to publish such information.
It is just as bad for the other people you mentioned too. Maybe they had a lot of Money and somebody does a background search, finds out where their family is and it could end being a disaster. Privacy is a must. Particularly nowadays.
Take care. I hope you get back your fortune one day.

Yes Yes. You are right. Life is one and the most important thing ever.
My doctor advised me to try recover the bitcoin private key, it could be improve my mental health. He also advised me to do Light Exercise, Outdoor Activities, rehabilitation old habits like bitcoin mining
The money involved here is not a little amount of money; it's worth trying to recover, which I completely understand why the doctor gave you the idea of recovering the bitcoin. Everything in life needs money, and if possibly you are able to recover it, then you will forget about many things that the accident that led you to a coma has caused you.My doctor advised me to try recover the bitcoin private key, it could be improve my mental health.

All the way, I wish you the best of luck; let's hope the brute-force option helps in recovering the missing keys.

After back from coma, I am trying to learn about technologies. I am very shocked when I see 1 Bitcoin become 95000 $ .

That's pretty bad if there's a few characters missing from your private key I think the right character count for private keys is 52, so it's 8 missing characters, but I can recommend you a tool that you can try to bruteforce it and find these 8 characters.
Check the FinderOuter tool to bruteforce that WIF key Check this link below where to download this tool

Then use the "Missing Base58" and use the example on the top right to get an idea of how to use it.
