Wow, such a high amount. I would not want to imagine how it would be to me to lose that huge amount.. Wow, more than one hundred thousand dollars, that is more money that what a lot of people can imagine in here.

Do not be sad
This is a lesson learned, learn from mistakes you have made.
Be careful in every case, every situation.
There are so many scams, in various forms.
You should not keep too much BTC but diversify your investment,
This is my advice and hope you do not be sad about it,

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.



I think that is the biggest mistake that you made to lost your entire wallet that's have a 13 bitcoin. I don't know how you lost it but I think you're regreting it now but how can possibly that you lost your wallet if it is an online wallet?

In due time, yes.

Beware to all, don’t download closed source wallets to collect your forks(snapshot in the last 6 months) in the mean time.

Don’t input your CURRENT BTC seeds into a forked wallet.

Don’t send BTC to your old seeds after you’ve input them a wallet.

So many rules. So easy to break them. So harsh the consequences.

Bitmex 100x sounds like a plan to recover, no? /sarcasm/

Losing a lot of Bitcoin because of your stupidity but not claiming fork coins. But you can move and get back up. You know all your life savings. Especially one of the new forks like diamond. You are quite safe getting BCH and BTG, but always thinking about it. Do you need 1000 $ more at a cost of 10k? Can you give more details of OP.

REALLY, thank you all... Never have I exhibited such knowingly risky behavior and been burned so hard. I’m normally a very risk averse person. Yet in this case, I disregarded my better judgement as if I was blinded by greed. Fascinating to question my personal headspace and why I made the decisions that I did. I just don’t fucking get it. Anyway, thanks for the kind words.

Dude, face it and let's it go. Don't expect the hacker will return what he stole from you. You bought a lesson, though it is so expensive.
Everyone is greedy, but be smart enough to not blind your eyes.

This is really sad, I feel for you. I had a similar experience in the last November, sent a big amount of lumen to my another wallet, it didn't come, i was really worried, contacted bittrex, they said I sent it to wrong address, however after 7 days i figured out i sent this to my friend's wallet, i called him and he said yes and sent me back. I was lucky it was my friend.

Too bad that it happened to you, it may look like you're not the one who's responsible for that but i think somehow it is your fault that you kept big amount in your account that it became an eye opener to hacked by anyone. I  really feel sorry for what happened to you. Just forget about it and move on and try to get some advice.
I feel bad for you for experiencing that kind of devastating event. My advice for you is just live the kind of life you want and take that as an inspiration don't feel down and just rise up. Everything will be alright you just have to keep moving. Your btc will come back to you higher than before.

That's a very huge loss. This story scares me quite a bit actually because a few days ago I had experienced this, even though the numbers are not as big as this. From this I got lesson, never put too much coins on 1 wallet. Now I'm have many wallet to save my coin.

very deep condolence for you. if i were you, maybe i would end up like you too.
i hope the culprit of your wallet change their heart because they see you in this forum.



I think you have a Trojan on your computer or download a wallet fake that has a backdoor that allows hackers to get your key. the money lost somehow, calm, drinking alcohol or try to sleep. the faster you deal with, the good for your health. why you save all saving your life in BTC? I really don't understand. Unfortunately the only thing you can do now is analyze your actions step-by-step to know which software compromised.

Its weird because you gave the address '1QFFas4xGSy1p1Kj2ghyD6BJhVDmwWmyKb' but this address never had a single transaction, how you lose 13 btc?
https://blockchain.info/address/1QFFas4xGSy1p1Kj2ghyD6BJhVDmwWmyKb

And about ledger nano, i didn't understand how could it possible, because you need to approve the transaction physically pushing the button.

I didn't saying that you are a lier, im so sorry if this is all true but i think that have some missing information about it.



Man do you know that an attacker can fully recreate a Ledger from a backup 24-word list? And that actually giving away one private key is as good as giving away all private keys to the attacker? So if he did give away his 24-word backup, or did give away one private key, it is enough that an attacker can recreate his ledger and press a button on his recreated ledger.

So do not call that man a lier, he is a poor man who made a (very costly) mistake.

Aim High! Bow Low!
Its really a bad thing to Put all that BTC at one wallet, its really risky and thus paying the price is really devastating. I dont know how you'll move forward from that kind of experience but, just think of what you have left and make that your starting point again. Really sorry for the lost of that 13BTC and if some cases that you'll get it back then that's  nice thing to hear But if not, then keep moving forward.

That's really sad to know that you lost such a huge amount. 13 BTC[ is a big number. Although I haven't lost as much as you, but I had also lost 4 Bitcoins when a reputed online exchange ran away with all the money. I was left befuddled and in shock. After that I made a pledge not to store private keys anywhere except a paper wallet.
