Hi,

I had two wallets (Deep Onion and Hemp Coin) on my PC which was completely damaged in a fire, It was burned to a crisp, so no chance of recovering anything from a Harddisk.
How can I recover the cryptos? Please help.
You did not record it elsewhere? Or on paper? If not, it is really very regrettable. Think again. Or on your phone?

For this we need the files of the wallet.dat I usually keep them in several places on the flash drive. At home, at work, and gave relatives. This helps to protect your coins. If you have not saved, You cannot restore

yes, for security should always backup wallet.dat data periodically. because the wallet.dat file is the stored data address.

Have you understand what are you talking about right now? It seems you are not making any backup for your wallet. And then, your computer was damaged entirely and then, can you retake your wallet file from your broken hard disk?
i think that you understand the correct answer. But red marker alreayd told us about the truth you are completely lost all of your data.

I suppose you haven't backed up your key because you wouldn't be asking this question. It is sad because as you said your pc had been burned down so your hard disk won't be capable to recover any information. Just make this as your lesson that next time you should have at least 2 to 3 backup in different places.

If you did not provide back-up files for your private keys then you can't be recover those coins. So sad but that's the reality on this technology we should be responsible to our investments.
This is lesson learn in cryptocurrencies always provide back-up files and place it to 3 different locations.

Awww that's sad to hear, but you can still recover that if you were able to backup you privte keys. If not, there's no other way of getting it back. That's why it's very important to back up our files/private keys, hope this can be a reminder for everyone to take precautions when it comesnin our wallet security.

If you have backed up your private keys or printed off your paper wallet with the seed phrase then you can recover them by downloading softare again and using the seed phrase to re-install your original wallet.

If you backuped your private keys you can still get your coins,but if not i am afraid there is no way you can recover your coins.Thats why you need to backup your keys so you can recover it anytime you will need to personally i always make 2-3 duplicates and stored in a safe place.

Did you save your private key?
If you don't save your private key and your hard drive file doesn't recover, you may lose it forever. Angry

then it seems you have to release your wallet because wallet like it attached to hardisk more and wallet is not connected or not terkingkron with online wallet then the wallet offline will be lost because you no information synchronized or connected with you. Your online wallet means you can not restore it.
