Topic: Multibit bitcoins lost ??? (Read 471 times)

Hi,

I hope this message finds you well. I came across your post regarding the difficulty of unlocking your Multibit wallet due to an incorrect password. I am currently facing a similar issue with my own wallet, and I wanted to reach out to see if you were eventually able to resolve it. If so, could you kindly share the method or steps that worked for you?

Thank you very much for your time, and I look forward to any advice you can provide.

Best regards

Hello,

Thanks for your reply. I try with data rescue, easus data recovery wizard, disk drill, iboysoft data recov, wondershare data recovery, stellar phoenix data recovery.
With one of them, i don't remember which one. I find a key file and a wallet file created in 2013 when i open Multibit classic for the first time but files are empty ....
 

The address will allow you to look up the balance on a blockexplorer (blockchain.com, blockchair.com, btc.com, live.blockcypher.com etc) but you will not be able to spend your coins, nor are you able to derive the private key from just the address.

To recover your coins you need at least one of the following:

- the private key to the address in question; OR
- the .wallet file from MultiBit (and any password used to encrypt it); OR
- a .key file from MultiBit (and any password used to encrypt it)

It would appear that you have none of these

Given you have already searched the computer and have been able to locate any .wallet or .key files, then the chances of recover of your coins are very very low

What software did you use to try and search for deleted files?

Bonjour

J'ai un problème et j'ai besoin de vos lumières  Smiley
J'ai utilisé sur mon mac le logiciel MULTIBIT version ANCIENNE 0.5 il y a des 8 ans. J'avais une adresse Bitcoin que j'ai créé directement sur le logiciel. Je n'utilisai pas de mot de passe pour me connecter à Multibit et je n'ai jamais cliqué su exporter ma clé privé ou le wallet. J'ai utilisé cette adresse pendant une année à envoyer et recevoir des soussous.
Un jour je lance le logiciel et la!! l'adresse n'est plus la même elle a changée ... De ce que j'ai lu sur internet c'était à cause du renouvellement des clés. Par la suite j'ai laissé ça de côté et j'ai supprimer le logiciel.

1- Est ce que si je n'ai pas exporté ma private key ou mon wallet il y aurait pu avoir une exporte lorsque j'ai fait des échanges de soussous ?
2- J'ai fouillé mon MAC, l'emplacement caché du logiciel et rien.
3- J'ai fait des recherches de fichiers supprimées avec des logiciels mais pas de wallet ou de private key..

Comme j'ai fait des échanges, j'ai l'adresse en question. Voilà voilà ...

Pouvez me donner des idées ? des méthodes pour retrouver mes BITCOINS ?

Merci à vous ! 


"""Hello

I have a problem and I need your lights Smiley
I used MULTIBIT OLD version 0.5 software on my mac 8 years ago. I had a Bitcoin address that I created directly in the software. I did not use a password to connect to Multibit and I never clicked to export my private key or the wallet. I used this address for a year to send and receive subs.
One day I run the software and the !! the address is not the same it has changed ... From what I read on the internet it was because of the renewal of the keys. Then I left that aside and removed the software.

1- If I did not export my private key or my wallet, there could have been an export when I made sub-sub exchanges?
2- I searched my MAC, the hidden location of the software and nothing.
3- I searched for deleted files with software but no wallet or private key.

As I made exchanges, I have the address in question. There you go ...

Can you give me some ideas? methods to find my BITCOINS?

Thank you ! """"
