Thank you for the response.

The email account the user account was created with has not changed for the lifetime of the account and I can certainly GPG sign from that.
There very well may be Bitcoin addresses in the PMs that I could verify against, but I'm not sure if there.

The reasons why I want to unlock my account:
1) It's an account created in 2010 and I have PMs with various people over the years, some of whom I'd like to reconnect with.
2) It is actually not a Newbie account. I had it lifted from Newbie status 4 years ago.


Have you followed the procedure at https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/recovering-hacked-accounts-or-accounts-with-lost-passwords-497545 ? You should open a thread like this only after you have followed the procedure mentioned in the link.

I've emailed the suggested account that shows in the error message with no response for weeks.
Recovering accounts are considered a low priority for "Admins" and usually take a very long time.

There should be plenty of public record from news articles and legal filings to show that I'm (Yo Sub Kwon) the founder of those companies and I still own the email address the account was originally created with.

I can send a photo of myself to a mod holding a piece of paper with the latest block hash or whatever is needed to prove my identity.
Unfortunately those methods aren't acceptable.

Acceptable methods (highlighted part): https://archive.fo/D8NUK#selection-479.84-479.457
Based on the public records: You didn't post any BTCitcoin addresses (including having it on your profile), so unless you've sent someone (a BTCitcoin address) through PM then your chances of recovering this account is very slim.

Even though you had a post containing a "Ripple address", somehow it's irrelevant (normally).

The sticky thread regarding "Recovering hacked accounts or accounts with lost passwords".

On a side note: Since the account is still on the state of "Newbie", why don't you just create a fresh account?

Greetings,

I'm trying to get my account: https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/jchysk-2753 unlocked. I've emailed the suggested account that shows in the error message with no response for weeks.

In my posts you can see I talk about the various companies I created over the years. Shirtsbyme, Coinsetter, and LaunchKey.
There should be plenty of public record from news articles and legal filings to show that I'm (Yo Sub Kwon) the founder of those companies and I still own the email address the account was originally created with.

I can send a photo of myself to a mod holding a piece of paper with the latest block hash or whatever is needed to prove my identity.

Any help would be appreciated.

-Yo
