I feel sorry for you. The good thing on crypto is, nobody can steal or take your money, if your private keys are really secret. The bad thing on crypto is, if someone stole your keys or if you lost your keys, nobody can help you.

I'm sorry for your loss. But you have to be careful. It's money. This situation can be compared with the work of the sapper. Once made a mistake and no longer need.

That is terrible news and im very sorry for you. Dont let it ruin crypto for you. There are so many people that have lost lots of money by making simple mistakes like sending 60k to the wrong address and having it just be dusted. The good news is we are all still early to the game. Try and get your head straight and make some smart investments. You can make it all back over the next few years. An additional thing I would suggest is using 2FA. I know that wasnt the issue here but it is worth taking every step possible to secure your investments. Keep your head up.

privacy preserving smart contracts and beyond

If this is true, as you said, other newcomers in the crypto currency should learn from your mistake. You can not store all your savings in a crypto currency, especially in one place. I know that you understand this now, but you need to diversify the risks.

I have learned already from a friend before not to put all my investments in one place. He said that the bigger your wallet has, the more hackers it can attract. Loosing 1 BTC could be painful but 13 BTC is something more like devastating and I feel sad for the OP. It seems like there is no solution for him to recover what was stolen, the only choice left is for the hacker to somehow feel pity (even just a little bit) and give it back fully or just a portion of it.

Sad to know that there are people who can even take to do this to other people. I know that every one of us works hard to earn money and taking it away just like that proves that there are human who don't act like humans at all.

Sorry about your loss.
First of all, it seems hard to find.
But don't lose hope and keep track of the wallet.
Cheer up because money is not everything.
13 BTC is quite a lot of money, I hope you find it.

Its unfortunate that we repeat the same mistakes over and over again which leads to loss making, we cant do much about your loss but if it was your fault then don't cry, the amount lost is way too high to be lost out of carelessness. we must continue to take precautions when dealing with BTC, the coin is way too valuable

Sorry if this sound stupid. I dont get it. How come the OP was hacked by just importing his BTC private keys in Electrum? Meaning Electrum wallet is not safe to use? Who stole his 13BTC by the way?
it was not Electrum wallet. It was a copy-paste clone of Electrum or whatever other legitimate wallet created to claim the forked Bitcoin Diamond and Bitcoin Private. Electrum wouldn't allow that, as Electrum works for real Bitcoin (BTC) only. So he pasted his private key into this clone and the clone developer(s) sweeped his BTC wallet.

That is a very sophisticated scam, feel bad for the OP who lost 13 BTCs. The problem is that the feeling will simply get worse when bitcoin rises, it will be regret and annoyance. Not sure if there is any advice that can make you feel better other than to go to the police and see if they can do anything.

Cautionary Tale: I messed up. Big time. Please don’t pile on harder as I’m already sick to my stomach.

NEVER EXPOSE YOUR BTC KEYS/Seed to an forked wallet.

Two days ago, I attempted to split my BTC Diamond and BTC Private. I could not get it.

At some point, I exposed my Ledger Nano with my BTC on it, to each of their Electrum Wallets.

Last night, my wallet was emptied of ALL my BTC, 13+ coins.

Here is the transaction.

It appears that I have now lost my entire life savings. I’m not begging for a handout but rather attempting to warn anyone new to the space. I’m sick to my stomach with the loss and my only hope is to gain the attention of the culprit.

If you have any space in your heart, please return the BTC. I’d accept a fraction of what was stolen. Please don’t completely bankrupt me.
Often the subject of the problem of security Ledger Nano was discussed. I would not buy such a device if I need secure my money. Wallet has very big progam holes. Sad situation...

Damn.... For as much as it hurts, the fault was from you. You don't keep a bulk of such asset as Bitcoin in just one wallet. Exposing your seed phrase was another.

Anyways, I believe this is a lesson for us l to learn.

I guess you know this by now, but for others that read this...

You made 2 big mistakes:
1. You kept too much money in one wallet.
2. You tried to get forked coins without moving out your real money away first.

I'm really really sorry for your loss Sad ... 13 BTC wow....


Get together and think on the future. With some skill and luck you'll build up another money. You have to.

yes I really agree with you, maybe better for you and your BTC, do not have to put everything in 1 bag, because in my opinion it would be very risky to lose, maybe i think what maybe this is the caliber of your close friends but i dont think bad about this and I just guessed it.

It's very terrible to lose everything that you had. But still, no one ever keeps all of your savings in one place, in one currency, at the same address. Thus you can not be completely robbed. This rule applies to both crypto currency and...
