Some guy forgot the password to a $3 million cryptowallet and got it back 11 years later.

💰 He bought 43.6 BTC in 2013 and set a password created by the random password generator Roboform, and then... forgot it.

The lame duck was helped by famous hacker Joe Grand: he rewound time back 11 years, generated a key based on the current date and time of the computer using Roboform password manager, and then easily cracked the wallet.

Lucky guy) 🤩

wow super lucky

Yeah. Me has forgotten passwords of most of the wallets I used 3 years ago, with shitcoins I can't even remember their names anymore.

that is true

that’s wild

Really wild

I agree he's lucky although it make me wonder about the safety of the password generator 🤔

I am wondering if he could do this for other wallets as well, as hacking the password/keys should basically involve too much computer power? 😅
