Well I learned a valuable lesson and move on. But one incredible thing about Ripple Chris Larsen and his team is at least they bother to check for me before telling me it is impossible. Quite hard to believe a legend such as Chris will bother to reply

Wow did he really replied on you? that's interesting. It's such a rare case that one of the founders who seems to be busy with their works replied on you.
It's a bad experience but also a good at the same time having to deal with Chris.

Hi I have a hoard of XRP but lost the secret key, I cannot remember the password to the below too.

https://id.ripple.com/auth/migrate

Does it mean that the XRPs are forever lost?

That is right brother, you have lost your coin forever without those keys, there is absolutely nothing much you can do to retrieve that wallet back, that is why it is important that you always back up your key in a place where it will be safe and where you can remember, there would have been noting so bad if you had even backed it up offline and have the keys in something like a safe.

I guess you have to just take the situation as a lesson for you for next time, and I hope the money is not much a damaging amount, and I don’t even understand the reason why you are keeping lots of XRP when there are better coins, anyway, that is a discussion for another day, even if it was not xrp, it may have been another coin, next time, also try and share your tokens into 2 different wallets to be on a safer side, I believe that there is no way you can have issue with both wallets at the same time.

Yeap it is a very very painful lesson, not to mention the tons of wallets of bitcoins deleted during the early days

Yes, you control that wallet and you are responsible for that and if you can’t remember anything then you really lost the money. This is very unfortunate and we should take care always of our wallet details but in the case like this, all you have to do is to set another goal start moving on and work for that again.

It's a pity about this incident. I think losing the secret key means we can't access the wallet. hence every online wallet will definitely convince and warn its users to store secret keys safely and not to lose them. But of course, I still hope that you can find the secret key later.

Same with BTC.
You lost it then what is inside that wallet is gone forever. That is the good and also the bad side of it.

Shouldve written it in paper. I got 3 copies of my private keys in paper. Also, they are scattered. If anyone finds it, they dont even have a clue what are those numbers and letters. Yet.

So sorry about this. You will need to find out the key otherwise, it may have temporarily been lost if not forever. I have several notes for my password and keys. While some never leave the house.

Sorry about that, but that's what it means; that is they are lost forever. Once you created that account you were given the right to own it via those keys but now you have lost them, it means no other person can access it till the right keys are found.

That's sadly one of the disadvantage of blockchain technology, There is no forget password of pass recovery options, Once you lose your private keys, you also lose access to your funds.

Sorry mate, but it's long gone. In the crypto space, any wallet or account with secret keys or private keys is under the sole control of the owner of that account. So if you have lost it, then there is no way to recover it because you were meant to protect it from the onset. Sorry for your loss.

You secret key is your only link to access the account and without which you can't. You own your data and your privacy which is protected with your secret key. I think you should start looking for them, search all your diaries etc because as it stands no one can help you.

Any account that has a secret key means that only the creator or owner can access it and without it, it can't be accessed. Since you have lost the secret key, I don't think there is anyone who can help you. I suggest you retrace your steps perhaps to the year you created the account and search your books for clues.

Compare rates on different exchanges & swap.

If by secret keys you mean you lost the private keys then you probably have lost your coins depending your wallet and how your stored the keys.
What password are you referring? Is it Your wallet password or no?

Usually, losing a password or secret key means that we lose assets in it. But there is an email input. Have you tried recovering your password or contacting support via registered email? Hopefully, there will be a solution. If not, at least this can be a lesson for you and all of us to be more careful.

I am a noob in this. Can’t they just login their database and send me the password?

Do you remember the email you used upon registering there? dig in to your email, the details of your registration might be there.

There is small chance that private key is being save on the email that is why you have to keep it where you can easily access. It is unlike door that you can destroy to have way to enter. This is a lesson to remember that you need to be careful for your account because it just a waste .

its one of the risk in investing cryptocurrency. same goes for any other coin, if lose you privatekey, you can consider it lost forever. ripple however seem to allow you to retrieve your privatekey so long as you can remember your password. try remembering it, we all have our favorite password to type in creating account, mine is just 123456, maybe that is yours as well.
