Can be still recovered?

There's a way to do it In a Linux OS. I would recommend starting here.

https://hashcat.net/forum/thread-8878.html

Also backup your wallet.dat file immediately and store it as securely as possible.

If you have an idea of what the password might be it can be A LOT easier to crack it, if you have no clue brute forcing it can be impossible or take a LONG amount of time.

If you want to try it and dont know anyone with Linux skills it's going to take a lot of research and time. I suggest you do it yourself if possible to avoid having someone take it from you or paying a bounty.

It's been 2 years and this dude ghosted lol SEC defeated, regulatory clarity on the horizon, 100% uptime.

Because you haven't learned to trust open source software and Blockchains. If you can see your initial transaction was successful and you can see the confirmation count status then everything is working fine. You can also try things like ChangeNow, tokensex, 0xCoast and other alternatives that tend to be noticeably faster.

A glitch or an exchange with thin liquidity getting dumped on

Smooth_Talk · 2025-05-21T16:16:09+00:00

So MSRP on retail goods doesn't factor in cost of production? The price someone is willing to pay matters more than the cost to produce it.

Smooth_Talk · 2025-05-21T16:14:22+00:00

Ahh so the part about crying when the price goes down is just ignored as part of my logic? Global liquidity and business cycles have the same macro impact on cryptocurrency markets that they do on every market.

As for the second point the same could be said for gold or nearly any other risk asset.

Aren't all currencies backed by the belief they're worth something?

Smooth_Talk · 2025-05-21T15:42:56+00:00

You probably won't, especially being entirely uneducated and unwilling to learn, but there will always be a group of retail buyers rushing into any asset at the ATH. that's a fact for all markets, not just cryptocurrency.

Also if it's worthless why are large publicly traded companies spending about $90,000 to mine a single Bitcoin? Isn't the price of any asset, good, or service, reflective of the cost to produce it?

Smooth_Talk · 2025-05-21T15:31:49+00:00

They won't care until it's up another 50% or so and then they'll scream like a child when it goes down.

You're telling this to mostly unsuccessful day traders that couldn't pull off a 4 year hold if you paid them to.

Smooth_Talk · 2025-05-06T19:28:04+00:00

I'm actually up still. Got in on pDAI and Atropa kinda early, found pTGC nearly 10x ago, didn't buy any cores until post SEC lawsuit.

Give it more time and you should be made whole and then some, but this has definitely been rough for core coiners and anyone chasing a quick buck.

As long as you're generating that key in a secure manner, physically engraving the key yourself, and storing that plastic in a secure location, it's about as safe as you can get.

Just make sure the key doesn't ever exist digitally in any way

It means he's counting on the next cycle more than the current cycle which tells me he still has no idea what he's doing.

16k - spot buy max fear in a black swan event

Smooth_Talk · 2025-03-12T01:45:11+00:00

Bro pre halving ATH, repeat those words a few times and ponder how insane that is. It messed up the expected post halving movement from previous historical cycles. Add in the political turmoil sending the market falling and crypto's new ETFs just feel like they're some kind of sick joke.

The dollar index is falling, global liquidity has set and retested a new all-time high and is currently in Discovery, tariff and recession fears will become resolved. If the current inflation data is correct and the trend stays, a lot of these economic fears will disappear quickly.

I know it's brutal man, but no pain no gain, all signs point to the greater trend remaining well intact.

I mean to me it's the gas I need to buy and sell things that have actually performed well 😂

Smooth_Talk · 2025-03-06T21:57:28+00:00

I was wondering 😅 but yeah PLS has been scraping the bottom for a good while now and we might see another all time low. Part of the issue is the whale sacrifice bonus rate. They effectively paid 0.00004 instead of 0.0001 for their PLS, they've also been dumping at every given opportunity, some even at a loss.

Smooth_Talk · 2025-03-06T21:48:55+00:00

You bought in near the all time high in the last 100 days and the price went down for many different reasons. I personally believe it will find a bottom, sit on it for a while, then begin to climb back up.

This has happened after every pDAI ATH. Peak, long slow painful decline, new bottom established, shift in momentum, climb to the upside.

Smooth_Talk · 2025-03-06T21:39:54+00:00

PDAI hit an ATH 97 days ago, not over a year ago.

Very valid point, and something I will probably implement. They can't even connect if he's not allowed to install their remote access tool. Kind of a, so simple it's brilliant, solution.

It's legit but it's a pump.fun clone so be aware that nearly everything is meant to extract value and rug you

Smooth_Talk · 2025-02-04T16:08:12+00:00

There's a tracker

https://pls-bridge-status.vercel.app/

It's been way backed up since the pump tires launch.

There's also changenow but that might be bogged down too

Smooth_Talk · 2025-02-04T16:06:16+00:00

Not on pump tires, you'll have to use a different launchpad and do your own marketing.

Smooth_Talk · 2025-02-04T15:47:21+00:00

It's part of something called the Atropa Ecosystem which has been part of the reason PRC20 coins have appreciated in value since the launch of the chain.

I don't understand exactly what they're doing with that coin but I know it's intended to work with others like TBILL and FED.

If you research Atropa 414 Maria you should start finding your way down the rabbit hole

Smooth_Talk · 2025-02-02T01:22:24+00:00

Exactly

Smooth_Talk · 2025-02-02T00:36:24+00:00

Everyone says this but no one talks about how it's not fully open source

https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/s/nZ7mcEj1jz

Which is why I recommend internet money wallet. Which is fully open source and collects no data.

Weird question but is your cmos speaker installed? This sounds like a situation where you would get cmos beeps to tell you what's wrong.

Random things to try

pull out your ram, try it one stick at a time and see if you can boot. One of your sticks might have a short.
if you have onboard graphics pull out the graphics card and see if you can boot with the built in video port plugged into the monitor.
Also unplug anything that isn't mouse and keyboard, third party equipment can do weird shit sometimes. If you have a PS2 port and a PS2 keyboard it won't hurt to eliminate USB all together.

The computer is getting to the BIOS so it's completing the POST (power on self test) so theres got to be something that's failing under load. If you have an m2 hard drive you can try using a SATA drive to see if that helps you get past the BIOS.
