I had this Bitcoin client who came from Atlanta trying to find a computer person in the Southeast who can retrieve data from a dead hard drive. The client went to 8 computer repair shops in Georgia and South Carolina. No one knew enough about Bitcoins. Looked up Bitcoin recovery and dead hard drive recovery on the web and one of my older blogs came up in his searches. Gave me a call and we talked for about an hour about the procedure of which I was going to try to recover the data. There are no guarantees, and of course, I wasn’t going to charge him anything if I could not retrieve the information he needed to get his bitcoins back. (This is why I believe in backups of everything concerning bitcoins and crypto).
Data Recovered and Bitcoin Seed Words
So I was able to rebuild the data on the hard drive that would not spin anymore using the particular software I have been using for data recovery for years. Once that was completed, I went ahead and Booted it up in a Linux operating system. Then I was able to go into the c drive and look around 4 a folder that he said he made invisible. So I went ahead, and I enabled show hidden folders, and there it was the 12 seed words. This was going to allow him to get his bitcoins back and into a desktop wallet (electrum) temporarily. He had over 200 bitcoins, and I was paid(bitcoins) very nicely for my two days and one-night of effort. He was thrilled because now he had his retirement funding. I have done a lot of setups for Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin is doing quite well, going back up. So give me a call at any time, and I will set you up to make money! Call me @ 828-335-5112
