Wow, he really has 103 Bitcoins in his wallet. He must be very disappointed that he lost his purse. I feel sorry for him
In the end who is this guy? Does he have a first and last name?

This guy would be rich right now. But maybe that's his fate. Although in any case it is very sad, especially if he lost the keys because of their own confusion.

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."





This is a sad story of him, but he lost less than one person in Germany. I do not remember how much Bitcoin he had stored in the hard drive, but that was a significant number. Many people still share his wallet to tease their friends.

I wouldn't want to be in this guy's shoes. Therefore, I carefully monitor the safety of my passwords and keys. It's a terribly hurtful loss.

This is one of issue with bitcoin once you lost your keys it will be lost forever. There is no need to try randomly whether you can guess the keys, you can try for the next 20years.

It is so sad to see someone lose this much. This is clearly one of the downsides of decentralized systems. The blockchain can be very good but once your details e.g passkey are lost, you can't retrieve it, meaning you lost your entire assets. I feel so sorry for this guy. I'm sure he didn't think the Bitcoin will surge in value this soon. People should learn from him by securing their details

Wew! This is really one sad story to hear.  It's more heart breaking than the scene of Titanic sinking (I guess).

Imagine the value a 103 bitcoin holds (especially December last year when it rose to USD 19,000 a piece).  The guy must have been pretty devastated.

But this is the reality of a lost wallet in return for stronger security.  That is why it has been overly stressed to never lose your details relating to your wallet access. That is why one should never be careless of these wallet-related information.  Keep a local or online copy whenever possible. Better yet, write it down somewhere safe and hold dearly on to that.

Hoping the guy you are talking about learn from his mistakes.

What a sad story that guy must be very sad. The value bitcoin in 2011 is so small but right now the price is fantastic. Is there any solution for that man problem?  I hope he can get his bitcoin back. Lips sealed Lips sealed

Lost 103BTC, I bet this will pain him/her more once BTC starts trading at $100k/BTC.

I honestly pity the person when I hear this news,
This might be useful if distributed to the mining forum to be careful and stay alert with the mining wallet address,
I suggest to keep it in the safest place, I still remember when in 2011 mining bitcoin was still fast and easy,

I'm really just sad though to see someone lose a lot of money because they don't believe that bitcoin will skyrocket, we have to really protect every detail of our wallet so we can enjoy the results of our hard work.

if I make it I will be devastated ... how much bitcoin can it do, and if that is the current time ... because it is already well known ... but if it was in the past when bitcoin didn't mean that to me it only caused a little regret

I'm sure that he's not the only who did mine or bought a lot of dirtcheap bitcoins back in 2011 and then forgot the file to access it. I know this is strange but this is a usual thing to happen because of the fact that not all of them took bitcoin seriously and expect to go big like what it is now today.

This guy is not to be envied. It's a shame to lose such money. Especially if you can't get them back. I haven't heard any stories yet so someone can recover lost keys. Unfortunately.

I know how vexed this guy is. To understand that you are potentially rich, but have no access to your wealth. Hopefully it will solve this problem and be able to recover your bitcoins.

Um, this is a very ridiculous situation. I wonder if you can contact the developers? Although I don't even know how to do it. Very sorry for the guy.
