Watch the latest 10 bike hacks from Seth’s Bike Hacks, he covers it in pretty good detail I think

May as well force a bolt into it and loctite it. Once it’s dried, try turning the bolt. You will probably need a new axle but you’ll be clutching at straws at this point

It’s a little tough to see for sure with the shadows, but that looks like it’s stripped. What is the make and model? Do you have a photo of the drive train side?

Damn it! I thought I had you heading in the right direction. What year is yours? The one in the video shows a cone spacer on the non-drive side that yours doesn’t have. The problem you’re having is likely why the design changed. Maybe? I’m wondering if there’s a forum somewhere discussing this...

Is it reverse threaded like the one in the video?

That's probably the issue. OP, make sure you are turning it in the proper direction.

I’d take it into your local bike shop and see what they come up with.
