It was a private key, i found it in a forum.
Not in the darknet, in the clear Internet.

Best Regards!

Well, If you found the private key, then what are you waiting for.
If you found that on the internet so it means anyone can find it So cash it out before someone does.
You have the private key you are the new owner of the address.
Send the bitcoins to multiple addresses no one knows who are you Wink or use some mixing site.
Bitcoin is anonymous.

Somehow I don't beleive this story. You have found private key just like that, out of nowhere. And the wallet has 40 Bitcoins. If this has realy happened you would probably keep those coins not asking for advice here on forum. Or you would know that is not right to take other people's money.

Please consider donating to projects who supports the community, they really deserve this, and without them, bitcoin is nothing, and you wouldn't be able to exchange, trade, play, gamble ...

Private key you sure or wallet.dat? if you are just get the privatekey and install it right now like in electrum you can get the bitcoin anytime you can send it,, if not if you use a wallet.dat and install like in electrum when you are sending bitcoin asking for authentications.

I guess the OP has found the address which have 40 BTC and have the last transaction from 2011 and which tells us that the address was not used again since 2k11 and the owner must be from early adopters and lost hi faith in Bitcoins in very early stage and he lost his password/key/wallet etc.
And this user has found the address and wants to transfer the bitcoins to his address without they private key.
OR if he found an address with priv key then he is going to rich :p

They say take the money and run. Bitcoin is identity agnostic: who (what) owns they key owns the bitcoins associated. I would not make such a big deal, you've been lucky enought to find those keys. Maybe share some with a charity... http://bitcoinforcharity.com/bitcoin-charity-list/

It seems to me that kind of money on a lost wallet is something out of science fiction. Perhaps it is a new type of fraud. In any case, bitcoin is not recognized currency and a criminal liability you will not get. Try to translate into another purse and to remove.

You can take it but be fast before somebody else take it because you founded that wallet in forum maybe it is already empty but maybe you will need to confirm payment via email so maybe you will not be able to take it.

You found the keys to a car. Can you take the car? Is it legal?

Don't be an idiot.  The money is yours.  It is not illegal to transfer bitcoin if you have the key to do it.  Having the key means it is your bitcoin.  Take it and transfer it to another address before another key holder does that. 



Not really, what i would do is to donate 39 BTC to people who needs it. Like donating to projects everyone use, but no one donates to, like UNOMP, BCOIN, and many others. I would keep 1 BTC as a reward for fair distributing the funds.
But the question is, how did you found a private key in a forum, with 40BTC in the wallet ? normally as it is existing since 2011, it should have been aleready emptied.

How did you found it ? Using the block explorer, or on a hard drive ? If it is on a hard drive, yes you can take it, lukcy you ! If it is on a block explorer, you can not, since you do not own the private keys.
