I have heard a few days back that the Ledger wallet was also hacked as hacker developed a sort of system that as soon as the offline wallet was brought online a typical type of virus infect it and cause the coins to transfer to some address. So nothing is Hacker free. All we have to do is to be extremely careful no matter how hard is the security.

Oh boy, hopefully that is not the case. I thought at least the hardware wallets such as nano ledger S were safe. I guess as long as there isnt enough safety for the users, crypto wont be changing the world for good. People need safety for their money, and as long as there is the risk of loosing the assets because you clicked on the wrong link once, it cant really become mainstream. But thats just my 2 cents.
Thanks for pointing that out though, I will read about it and probably rethink the security measures I took so far.

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 Sad

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."






Those were the days when bitcoin was actually undervalued and the price is not as much as of now. Maybe, that person took for granted that amount of bitcoin because its not valuable as is now. But no, if you lose that amount, it will be really so disapointing and saddening.

So much money in bitcoin. That's way hardware wallet is best choice to keep your digital asset than software wallet. If you missing your file on your PC, you cant access your wallet and you will lost it. Try to buy ledger wallet or trezor to keep your wallet. It's safe and recommended.
Yes. If such a large amount of money should be bought separately for storage, this is probably a mistake for him. And now he has learned a lot. but late. But do not fall for that. Let's try to pass and the bright future comes again.

Wow, he has actually 103 Bitcoin in his wallet. He must be really disappointed with losing his wallet.dat. I wish he gets it soon as possible back but that is nearly impossible.

Actually who is this guy ? Does he has a name ?
 
Just heard the name, but actually did not know if it was true, if it was true that he lost 103 BTC I wish he would find them soon, who took his, please open it back to him. Take a little, do not force him into the path of poverty.
Yes for sure it is really a high lose, but it use to happen with new user most of the time only because they become careless for the safety of bitcoin if they won’t share their private key with anyone, and will buy after making high research then I don’t think this kind of news will come in front of us, but we should remain careful while buying bitcoin because people are there to hack and scam your bitcoin just stay active mate.

Are you even reading the OP? It says he lost his wallet.dat file the reason he can't open his wallet and obviously making those bitcoin lost forever. He did not gave his private key and he is not a new user as he said that he is a miner back in 2011.

In terms of losing our digital currencies, Hacking and scamming is not the only way. Being irresponsible to our assets is another way of losing our money the same as the guy that we are talking about now.

That must be very disappointing for him but I have seen a documentary on BBC that a person lost his hard disk having 7500 Bitcoins on it. There was no way to recover it from the dumping ground because the ground is huge in size and there was no assurance that hard disc will be in the perfect situation even if the person is trying all the efforts to find that hard disk. After all, Crypto is all about self-responsibility and anyone is responsible for his own actions.

This is painful losing a staggering amount of 103 BTC . Now he is giving his wallet ID for any one to try if they can open the wallet? Ok we will try. If we succeed what next.

Think on the bright side guys. Less bitcoin means much more value to it. It's better than those bitcoins getting hacked by those bankers or a huge syndicate.

It's a very sad thing to spend 100 Bitcoins that have been cracked. I just found out information about it.

Whoa! 103BTCis a huge amount. What happened anyway? He lost his wallet.dat file? as far as I know it can be retrievable right? What a pity

if that's really happen. I remembered before there is someone also hacked a huge amount of bitcoin on Electrum wallet I think it was 90BTC.

So, I think we need to be careful and save properly into our wallet.

bitcoin is so big that he loses the bitcoin if he loses it if he just hangs and holds it long or it's still big but it's a bitcoot so it's better to hold bitcoin now so it's not going to rush to buy it later bitcoin today

He mined bitcoin in 2011 and lost in the same year or recently? if he recently lost 103 BTC, surely he was very disappointed. Then btc who lost the owner, would it be lost forever in the market?

Crypto still can't account for human error..I myself lost some bitcoin on anonymous exchange because I forgot to back up my password. I think most of have made a mistake that has costed us money, just not to the extent of 103 bitcoins.
