Topic: This guy has lost 103 Bitcoins - page 58. (Read 8077 times)
well if you can get those btc right now then probably you will be rich by now that if you were not having some wealth though as of this moment but it could really add up your asset. Come to think of it 103 BTC is a good number acquired and that is a huge money if it is being converted to fiat money. More or less you can buy hotel for that one i guess or you can raise your preferred business. Unfortunately you were giving up? I do hope that somehow you could retrieve your BTC so that you can have your wealth. Anyway have you try to call an expert on retrieving deleted files from your desktop or where you have lost it? I bet it could be recover.
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."
Tough luck right? We usually commit some stupid and negligent moves in our lives coz we were lazy and lax resulting to loses. 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!

He must be devastated losing that a lot of bitcoin. First rule always apply, don't loss your key or else you are really doom. Back then bitcoin was not much appreciated and mining was easy back then, so now he or she be an instantly rich right now if did not forgot his keys. Maybe this serves a lesson to stay vigilant and always have a back up, it will come in handy in the future.
That is so terrible, wow! It makes me want to be extra careful with anything that I have. It looks like he lost about a million dollars worth of bitcoin! 2 million if he would have sold when it was higher!
103 Bitcoin is a fortune, losing such is not a very good thing, But unfortunately it has happened, i thing regaining them is almost an imposiblity as the wallet is mot of the times encrypted to the individual's liking, if he cant remember what the details are then its impossible to regain the BTC, ts even useless to try getting them back
I wish this guy recover from this gravious loss. He just have to be manly and pick up again especially when Bitcoin price had now plummed compared back as at then. This is however a great lesson for us to encrypt our Wallets with pass-phrase or actually store them outside the computer in an Hardware like ledger Nano especially where huge amount is involved.
That's a total disaster because he can't recover his wallet's .dat file. Maybe he's not so interested in bitcoin before and has given less focus to bitcoin without knowing that bitcoin will be the future gold of today.
If we think of BTCs ATH price then it definitely sucks (over USD 2 million lost!). But who knows, considering he mined them sometime in 2011 he could have easily sold them that same year when it peaked at USD 31 or at some other point before BTC made it really big in 2017.
I would kill myself if that happens to me, haha, just a joke, but no one can really be happy if he/she lost more than a one million dollars! I mean, i would not even know how i could react.
That is why the hardware wallets have ever existed, and i remember that i started mining on 2013 and i did not even stored my bitcoins on my pc, everything was on my paper wallet and i switched to hardware lately on 2015.
Easy come easy go. I know you were joking with your suicide remark here, but I just want to remind everyone that money is not the most important thing in life.That is why the hardware wallets have ever existed, and i remember that i started mining on 2013 and i did not even stored my bitcoins on my pc, everything was on my paper wallet and i switched to hardware lately on 2015.
While it's true that life without money is terrible and disappointing for most people but as long as we live there is a chance to find happiness in life.
You can store your bitcoin on your PC, but you need backup - I doubt that both backup and original data will be destroyed at the same time.
I have seen this story in here more than ten times already, when are people gonna stop posting this shit? We all knew this!
Also, i dont understand why people is still posting in here! This thread is old..

This just goes to show how HODLing too long can cause complacency. You have to remain active in that which you believe in and even take the necessary precautions to ensure you don't lose what could amount to millions.
I think the most popular problem before the miners who have mined a lot of bitcoin, they want to keep it real but unfortunately because they are looking for some security for their bitcoin, they destroy their storage while backing it up and unfortunately, they can not back up it.
Back in those years bitcoin was not so valuable at the time, so it's okay for him not to recover it because nobody expects bitcoin to be at this stage.
I apologize for the translator. But how could someone get LBTC from this address and use them without a secret key? http://explorer.lbtc-pool.io/address/166BuLPWHUjqoqiYp5rGE3B5r5AmqgHpoL
Or am I doing something that I do not understand? In advance I apologize if a question a noob

That's just a bummer! But hey, bad things happen and sometimes there's nothing we can do about them. He admitted though that he had made some personal errors which caused this problem. 103 BTC is undoubtedly a lot of money! And losing that much can make anyone lose his mind and go crazy! But he shouldn't give up there. If he could no longer retrieve his wallet, then he can just keep on mining. Have a new start and avoid making the same mistake.

Oh! That's a huge sum of money. This really painful. Losing even one bitcoin is not an easy thing, and to lose 103 bitcoins.hmm take heart bro
To be honest, this story is a little like the truth. But if it is real, then the guy is very unlucky. It is unlikely that he will be able to access these bitcoins.
The guy's really sorry. There is nothing sadder to have a huge amount of money and not have access to it. But I hope that somehow you can resolve this situation by contacting the developers (if only theirs can find....).
It's just as an initial explosion and if I feel like this I will be depressed. To rest or get people to work for you. Hopefully the wallet can be found if the person can track it. 
that's a real shame. 103 bitcoin, ouch. I guess we attach value to what its worth at the time and that wasn't much back then. The thing with these stories is that he could have replaced them without much cost, but he didn't. So its not that he lost his private key, its that he never bought any more replacement bitcoins because he never knew they would be worth $20K one day. Who would have.
I think that quite a number of folks have fallen into the mistake of mining bitcoins and throwing away the hardware or using a substantial amount of the bitcoins in the early years to pay for a paltry thing like a drink or something that was not quite commensurate to what the value of the bitcoins is. I am not aware that there may be a way to crack a wallet whose keys have been lost or misplaced. Best of luck for you in the future.
You are always warned to be mindful of your wallet , private and public keys. If any of them falls into wrong hands you are finished.
