How can he deleted his wallet.dat ? Is it real ? There is more proof ? Well i think its real ive checked his addres, unlucky guy lost 103 btc, how can he is saving many bitcoins in one wallet ? Thats not good
That's a lot of money now compared to 2011, if it were me I would be so gutted. That's why I have taken the pain to store my keys, files on different storage devices.
Very unfortunate on the Guy's part to have lost so much, because having such amount of Bitcoin mined at 2011 is a lots of money now. Pathetic enough, I doubt whether this wallet can forever be traced again unless through pure intervention to the Guy. A very good reason or lesson learnt from this is to always back our wallet up especially when it is already storing larger amount of Bitcoin. Better still is the employment of Hardware Wallet such as Ledger Nano S.
me also such as you, it understand that, but that have many many lost
Indeed when the price of bitcoin is still very low, so many people do not care about bitcoin. I am sorry for the loss of bitcoin you have, but I think it's a lesson how we can always think positive and meticulous and thorough in doing something so that the data set we have can be stored well and whenever we want to open it will not lose the data. hopefully you can accept the reality that has happened to you, and begin to rise again with a new spirit to fix the mistakes that ever happened, so you will be lucky and successful for your future better.
Because of the anonymity, we can not rely on a particular unit to retrieve information. That's the limitation of bitcoin
Felling sad for this guy. Btw how he lost 103 Bitcoins?
He didn't expect that the Bitcoin will hit the jackpot at that time. Earlier then bitcoin is like any other altcoins, doesn't have so much value. But now, his feeling might be hurt for not taking care of his own investment.
That must suck and I feel bad about him. It's not a good experience to have that in life. Just think of the investment he has put into it only for him to lose. Remember that bitcoin is getting the respect it needs and it's a bad timing to experience that. All that he can do is just hope for the best so he could come back.
I think there has been a lot of reports of people losing bitcoin. During its early days bitcoin has a very low value so people oftentimes just neglect it or forget about it. If I was on that persons situation I would go insane. Imagine 103 bitcoins man that is quite a lot. I could be swimming with my money now.
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."
Well, this is what I call tough luck! And his lost happened due to his negligence which he openly admitted. 103 Bitcoins is a lot of money today! I'm pretty sure the famous question "what if" used to haunt him (unless he has other wallets that has more BTC's in them). Lesson for him and also for us to be more careful and vigilant so not to experience the same lost. His Address 166BuLPWHUjqoqiYp5rGE3B5r5AmqgHpoL Final Balance 103.20832384 BTC

He doesn't believed that Bitcoin price will have a great price that's why he don't back up his file and think that it is just a waste of time. We all have done mistakes in the past and just use that experience to be more careful and be a better person in the future.
I thought my lose was bad. I have a few Dash in a wallet on a hard drive. But, I recorded the password, or though, "I'll remember that". Well I cant find the password, and cannot transfer the Dash out. I tried password guessing for a while, then sent my mining machine on it to do a brute force on the wallet. No luck. Every once in a while, I open the wallet and try new combinations of what it could have been. Really sucks. Especially when Dash hit it's high 5-6 months back. Oh well. I feel bad for this person. But, these are all good learning lessons. Practice good backups and record your passwords somewhere safe. I have two copies of all my new accounts and passwords now.
That was a big lose from your hope. It was big amount with big properties if that wasn't lost. Maybe the good things now is don't blame yourself for your bitcoin lose because blaming yourself won't help you. Maybe try and try to mine more and more again in more time but you should be patient in all times.
Oh my God, What a tremendous amount of money to lose, it's so crazy that you have lost what you invest since 2011. You are so unlucky. I hope you get your lesson, double secured always your wallet.
Because he lost his .dat file, he won't sell them LoL!
If he still get access to his wallet then all of them will be gone soon! I'm pretty sure about it!

That is so terrible. But sometimes we need to experience these things so that we would be moulded into a better person. 103BTC's is undoubtedly a huge amount today. But it's better to move on and start over rather that drowning ourselves in the mistakes of the past. Learn and move forward!

103 bitcoin is a big amount of money.If it has happened with me what i do that time or what was the situation with me i just can't say. I think that you should not keep all your savings in one purse.
That's a huge loss of bitcoin amount. We must keep our wallet safe no matter what because of this kind of thing. Beside that there are many scammer out there including hackers that can get your wallet data such as the private key.
