SITUATION EXPLAINED: Claude recovered Bitcoin worth about $397K after trillions of password guesses failed.
X anon @cprkrn bought 5 BTC for $200 in cash at a Starbucks in 2013, lost the password, and accidentally turned it into a decade-long forced hold.
After brute forcing failed, he started feeding old notebooks and college laptop files into Claude. It found the missing connection between an old wallet file and a partially missing seed phrase.
"I had two out of the three. Couldn't figure out the third."
"It successfully worked."
"Something I just never would've tried on my own."
