It's hard to believe that you can forget your wallet password if you hold 18 BTC there. It is a huge amount of money and you need to store it carefully. But anyway, if you forget the password, I think you can't retrieve it or there is a way to recover but I don't know. Try to remember your password if possible if the wallet is yours

First and foremost, how can you have such an amount of Bitcoin in your wallet and forget the password to the wallet? Well, you just have to accept that your Bitcoins in the wallet is lose forever. Please don't waste your time trying to get a way to restore your wallet without the password. Once you don't remember the password, it is useless trying to restore your wallet.

You'll never know how you'll get the filthy trojan.

It may be a file that has been infected, but it may also be just some naive user who purchased a fake wallet file that allegedly contains 18.2 BTC, and now he needs someone to crack it. There are many examples of forgotten passwords behind which is the true wealth, but a good deal of such cases are very likely fraud. In any case, a 13-character password is an impossible mission to brute-force, unless it is some very simple combination or word from a dictionary.

Be careful with this account. He only has 7 posts. 424 forum activity means he used to have at least 424 posts but somehow he deleted them.

He also shares his email rather than asking for PM's.

Just a warning. Alarm bells are ringing.

You'll never know how you'll get the filthy trojan.

And this:

Another red flag, something's not right, I smell something fishy here.

a little strange in my opinion, that amount of money around 18.2 BTC is not a little, but you are that easy to forget your password and not record let alone keep your backups of your wallet well, I still doubt it is your money, but I am not accusing you of stealing from your friends, I do not have much knowledge about forgetting the password on the wallet, whereas you also did not mention what wallet you are using? if you use an online wallet like blockchain, just forget about your money because they don't provide the password forgetting option

18 bitcoin, are you serious, how can you forget your password with that much bitcoin, I feel doubt with your statement, in the wallet there is usually a forgotten password feature, maybe you can reset it, in the wallet there is usually a forgotten password feature, maybe you can reset it, which usually can't be recovered if you forget the unique phrase, with that much bitcoin you should back up your data.

If you have the passphrase or the private key of the wallet then that should not be a problem. Just uninstall the wallet and reinstall it again but when setting it up use the restore wallet/recover wallet function. However, if you did not save the keyphrase of your wallet then i am sorry your funds are lost forever. This should make you learn how to backup and write down your wallet details in a book. I have been doing this ever since i got into this space and i have not encountered any situation of this sort.

if the wallet is yours and you're the one who makes that password
just try to remember every password that you use in the past
like name surname birthday favorite number and write it
then think the possible way that you will do in that time and situation to make a password with it

13 digits? think of how you construct passwords before maybe it's something related to the numbers that you like. And those numbers can be the important dates and events that happened in your lifetime during that year.

How about this service?

I always see them being suggested by reputed people of the forum.

So 18.2 BTC has just been added to the number of Bitcoin lost because of forgotten recovery phrases, if you're asking for how to recover your password, then I guess you don't know how bitcoin fundamentally works and hence you didn't even back-up your wallet and save the recovery phrases, a password doesn't really matter, what matters is that recovery phrase.

If recovering an account was possible without the phrase, then every big wallet with lots of Bitcoin would have been "Recovered" by tech gurus out there, sorry for your loss, I think you should go and learn the fundamentals of Bitcoin and learn how it really works to avoid future losses from amateur mistakes like this.

Let say it is your wallet and there is no way for you to remember your password then there is only one way left, that is brute force.
There are some program can do it, but your password length is 13, if we count digits in alphabet only, then you have to try 26^13=2,481,152,873,203,736,576 times, it would take your time.

You need to find your seed phrase. Without it will be impossible to open it

You mean your wallet was created since 2014? It will be hard to recover if you were not able to at least note the important information of your wallet.
Try to remember every password you have used before, including your birthday, nicknames, codenames, numbers you always use, etc.

Maybe it was your birthday or something relevant to you? Maybe you've written it down and you forgot where you put it. Try to find those if you can. If you can't, I think there's a software called btcrecover which brute force forgot passwords. Maybe you should give it a try to see if you are able to get the password on your own.

this is probably your best bet, assuming you have some idea what that passwordis but your just slightly wrong. like it's password123 but you're trying PassWord321 or the like.

The password is irrelevant, only the seed words matter. When you create a wallet, you are supposed to write down a series of words in a piece of paper, you can recover your wallet with that.

It's not irrelevant, wallet file + password allow you to access your coins, so it's a really bad idea to be careless about it. As for seeds, not all wallets have them, Bitcoin Core doesn't use them and will not use them in close future. If we are talking about wallet files from early days, there's almost no chance that those wallets have seeds, so finding or cracking password is the only way to access the coins again.

People should understand that there are some difference with cryptocurrency wallets compared to the usual accounts we have online. It is the big responsibility of the owner of the wallet that all information necessary to open and operate the said wallet are kept safe and away from anyone so that there will be no major problem that can encountered soon. Certainly, some learning curves can be so critical and we should never forget them. We should not be treating our wallet information as a toy that we can play with.

Are you able to prove that the wallet is yours? How did you just "forget it"? I would assume most people that are holding a sum that great would not just "forget" their password.

well there is even this certain person that throw away a harddisk containing 7500 BTC and even in this forum alone many people actually encounter the same problem which is forgetting their password from wallet.dat you can try to search it up so yeah, forgetting it is possible and those early birds who hold bitcoin from the time when bitcoin is not popular some of them have this problem.

to OP, try to remember and try all the combination of word or letter in your mind because bruteforcing it would take millenias.
