"Not your keys, not your coins". Unless you (installed a software and) made a wallet and received a private key (or a wallet file) I'd stop dreaming. Most probably that site doesn't exist anymore or has change and would not allow you withdraw.


Exactly!!! Which website will just give 100 bitcoins and make it possible for you to withdraw the bitcoin.  He should waste his time to think about the possibilities of him still having the bitcoin he claims that he had earned in his account on the website. Thanks for enlightening him on the fact that no private key not your coins. People always love to daydream forgetting that some daydreams are not worth dreaming and thinking about.

In 2010, you came across a site that was giving away bitcoins. The site said it was free money so you signed up. You were logging in to figure out how it was money but couldn't. The last time you logged in you had more than 100 bitcoins. Later you forgot about the site until 2017 when a ponzi was advertising Bitcoin. Bitcoin? The name rang a bell and you stated hearing stories. You remembered you must have many bitcoins  somewhere but you can't even remember the name of the site. How would you recover your BTC?
You can look with your gmail account which site your are joining and check where you put your 100 btc, but I am not sure your site still active because many hype site never hold more than one year, but if you save your bitcoin on exchange wallet maybe still possible to recovery your bitcoin assets, check with your email and looking gmail received in 2017.
Even if you will recover your account, but i don't think your bitcoins are still there. You might have deposited it in a ponzi website and took all your bitcoins. Next time, make sure to deposit your bitcoins in a hardware wallet so you can still have more chances to regain them.

I think nothing you can do about it. But you must search on your email, word, cloud store, or any file name that could you used for saving the name of the website. If you cannot find the name with the login and the password, then you cannot do anything except let it go while you regret it. If I were you, I will withdraw all of the 100 bitcoin and save it into my computer, and I will not telling anybody.

First and foremost if the website is still in operation, it is very possible that you might not see any Bitcoin in your account if you remember your login details. It is but a waste of time to worry yourself in trying to remember the login details.  And secondly, how can it be possible that a website will give you more than 100 Bitcoin and you will still keep such amount of Bitcoin in that account?? Don't worry yourself and resources to try to retrieve and remember the name of the site, because it might not be working.

I have also had this same fears sometime back and hence i decided to write out all my account usernames, emails and their respective passwords. I have backed this up in several other books as well and stored them somewhere very safe. You have to go the length and breadth just to keep those funds. I know so many people are cursing their stars as to the number of bitcoins they don't have private keys to.

check your email to see the name of the website account that you have verified before, then make sure the website is still active, if that is true then make sure to remember the domain that is being used because many are down and lead to phishing sites.

2010 is full of hacked faucet/hyip websites, and your chances of getting back your BTC are very small because the balance has been transacted to another wallet by the hacker.

Gavin's faucet was about the only site that was giving coins away for free back then, so I reckon that was what you were referring to. He closed

down the faucet and I think he took back the coins that was unclaimed. I was not around when he had the faucet, so I do not know if he deposited

the coins directly into people's Bitcoin addresses or if he had some type of ledger system to keep track of the coins. If he had a ledger running in

the background, then it was not actual bitcoins. Any early adopters out there that can give us some more details?

This website is definitely scam or closed, 100 BTC is a great deal of money so the website wallet owner or whatever website you are storing bitcoin will definitely be interested in and they can erase everything your data to prevent you from accessing your wallet again. I used to experience this with bitcoin faucet and i returned this faucet during bitcoin bull run but it is closed ..

I hope you just let go of the bitcoin that is on the site, because I'm sure if you can remember the name of the site and the password. Still
can't recover the bitcoin that you have on the site. Because it's been about 9 years, and I doubt if the site still exists. The problem is I'm
personally have experienced something similar to save bitcoin results from faucets, on the faucet site and after 5 years I just remembered.
Then I tried to withdraw from the site that ultimately can not attract the bitcoin that I have. Because it turns out the site is a scam.
My advice do not save our bitcoin in a long time in exchanges or wallets without regularly checking it, later we can lose the bitcoin that we store.
And it will be difficult to recover the bitcoin that we have.

I was in the same situation 3 years ago, i remembered that i made a wallet for some faucets back in 2011 and i could'n remember it , and the way i was able to recover it is that i went back to my email and started searching all the mail that i got that includes btc in them and lucky for me i found it and i was able to recover 150$ worth of btc, i feel like that could be also applied to anything related to btc that you forgot about other than there is no other way.

You can still recover your bitcoin if the computer you used to to that site is still working. Sometimes your transaction or every logged in history was saved in your computer. So,it's possible to recover your bitcoin. If not then just charged it to experience and do not let your bitcoin loss again next time.

If the site is active then it isn't a big problem to recover back the funds. Over the years there were more faucets, but now the number has decreased a lot. Some websites even with proper username and password used to show errors and won't be able to access into the account. This errors were due to the lack of update from the website.

I think it would be hard to recover your bitcoins especially if you don't know what is the username and also the password, you will recover it when you know what email was bind to your account but if you don't know what is the email that you've been bind in your account then it would be really hard for you to recover your account as well as your bitcoins. And also if you don't know the site then it would be really hard also because you don't know what is the website that you store your bitcoins you don't know also if the website was down or not. If that's the case then it would be really impossible to recover your bitcoins.

nothing can be recovered, if all your bitcoins are still on the free bitcoin-producing website. even you forget the name of the website. and if you remember that, I think the website is gone or closed. I have around 0.01BTC in the faucet, I didn't withdraw it. and finally I found the web access is not found. if you have already withdrawn it on the blockchain wallet, I hope you will remember your private key.

I don't think there is a way to recover it, they all gone forever. And the smart thing to do with that particular situation is to forget that you have money out there and get focus for what you can do today. Thinking of that mistake will simply bothered you all the time which makes you sick.

I know it is too hard to forget it but we have nothing to do is to accept and give some room for new coming, and maybe this time we can back-up all the keys and passwords of email add that be needing just in case it happens again.

Most likely your site will be locked, and you will be very sorry because you lost a million dollars in BTC equivalent

I'm not sure there's anything you can do with it. the biggest conclusion I can think of is, it's not your bitcoin anymore. even when you know the site, I can't guarantee the coin is there, even more so if it's a site that can be easily managed by its administrator.
if you come back for your bitcoin, and you believe that it is a well-known site, I think you will remember it someday. but I'm not sure that you still have bitcoin there, or that the site has become a scam, or has even been closed.
I have also remembered this story. I have a story like this, but in the end, I did not find my bitcoin there, even the transaction I did not find. so start moving forward and forget about the coin.

A balance on a site is just virtual until it sits in your wallet. Not your keys, not your wallet.

How would you recover your BTC?
There might be no way to locate such website again because most websites that gave free bitcoin during that time are gone.
Just accept your fate and move on because the biggest mistake you made was leaving it on website.
