How sad if he had lost it. Somehow if there is anyway you can just keep your keys at your house encrypted in such a way that only you understands it would be better. Or how about spreading the keys across walls of your house or bedroom written very small? Maybe it will help. If saved in a computer you might have problems keeping it due to possible hackers. I think there are so many ways to back it up manually those are just my suggestions though to avoid such problem.
So much money in bitcoin. That's way hardware wallet is best choice to keep your digital asset than software wallet.It's better than those bitcoins getting hacked by those bankers or a huge syndicate.
wow, that was terrible. it's look like losing 5 Lamborgini Aventador because about 20 btc can buy 1 Lambo.
If I'm in his position I will never give up to try to get it back

Cant blame the guys those days Bitcoin are not really popular and some of those miners think that if was just like a game or what we doing is not really that worth it those days but still its stupid if you dont have backup on your wallet key. He already gave up on it so sad that was worth a million right now.
Sad news for everyone and probably the worst nightmare anyone can have. Except this one is real and it is a total loss. I hope everyone reconsiders their bitcoins and alt coin security.
IMHO for such amount of money you can hire hundred people to find out where you lost it) Or recover all information byte by byte from the bad hard drive in special organizations)
The chance of recovery for this amount of money is very less, maybe this guy has already give up. It could have make him millionaire during the ATH of bitcoin but that is life, we make mistakes sometimes and all we do every time is just to move on
and continue exploring greater opportunity.

There is no way to retrieve it unless if he could remenber where he put the files to recover and open it. Many have experienced problems like these and the only thing that could help prevent this is to make more back up of private keys on the computer zipped with passwords.
How sad that Bitcoin lost that much.
And this is actually a basic error that can actually be prevented.
Wallet system security may be difficult to solve by many unless a professional hacker might break into this person's wallet.
The year 2011 Bitcoin is not high yet but now the price of Bitcoin has changed to very high.

Thats a lot! Makes me happy i'm using a Ledger and have the codes save in multiple places
This guy has lost 103 bitcoins he mined back in 2011 and then lost his wallet dat file similar to what I have done but wow this guy must be gutted the amount of money he has lost compared to me
His Address 166BuLPWHUjqoqiYp5rGE3B5r5AmqgHpoL Final Balance 103.20832384 BTC
So many people have the same problem and I wonder just how much Bitcoin is stuck not being able to be used
He says "I used to mine Bitcoin back in 2011 and I lost my wallet.dat file (through several stupid moves on my part). It's got approx 103 BTC in it, anyone is welcome to it, I've given up trying."

That is really unfortunately for you tobecause that is a lot of money and of course a lot of efforts have been wasted because of that just in case that there are a great hacker that can crack the code then it is great but if not then just do not lose hope and do not blame yourself either just start in the beginning again and that is why ehen the bitcoins are having a high price I am bringin the half of my bitcoin into real cash and then saving it because this is a technology I cannot be assure that this can last forever

This bitcoin address will be forgotten and lost forever. I dunno if there are expert hackers who can be cracked that wallet. That could be more than 700k in US dollars.
I wonder how's this guy doing right now, this event can make your whole life thinking that you are very ungrateful man. He just lost multi million dollars which is a very large amount of money.
A lucky man which turns out to be unlucky.

Ironically, lucky to the receiver but bad luck to the sender. So far once bitcoin was sent already we can't do anything to get it back for the market does not designed with that purpose. Once lost, forever lost. Maybe to the owner he should be more careful than how he was careful before to avoid losing again some bitcoins or even altcoins. I hope and wish that he is okey. Wishing the best for him to regain strength and courage to move on and do his job again to earn some even just a little.
A very sad occurrence and to overcome that all many users are in this situation so he says a lot about Bitcoin security and that we all have to learn from it. We need to be able to secure our passwords, but once again make sure we will be able to access them, especially those who make long-term investments, there are many ways to secure your password, but you can also make sure you will be able to access them. We all need to be very careful.
I guess there are lots of bitcoins now that are sort of "lost in limbo" as the owner lost priv keys or wallet.dat.
Some news before I recall was there were btc owners who were searching landfills for their old harddrives and laptops.

Definitely losing a lot of bitcoin as it will make you disappointed and sad, but you should learn from what has happened. To further more careful and always keep the bitcoin we have with good and right to avoid the crimes that can harm us. I hope the loss of bitcoin does not make you weak, but rather arouses the fight to get more bitcoins, because I'm sure you can get more bitcoin from what you've lost.
definitely losing the bitcoin with the present value especially with the big number it must make the mind not calm. a very valuable asset suddenly disappeared, hopefully for the next will not happen case like this again.

How can be so irresponsible in this matter? especially with such a sum of money. it seems to me he himself is to blame for not being in the states to take care of this file.
I dont want to know how many people lost their bitcoins they mined or buyed back then for so cheap price. I think there are millions of bitcoins who are lost. So maybe thats one reason why the price of bitcoin could reach that high. Its more limited then we expectet because of all the lost private keys. and data!
