With over 7 million followers on YouTube, Mr Vinheteiro would be hospitalized after losing the password to his wallet containing 4 bitcoins inside.
According to a new episode of the TubaCast podcast, the channel Tubarão da Bolsa, the musician even asked the presenters for help to find out his password for a wallet containing his bitcoins.
With the new high in currency, he publicly stated that he had lost more than R$2 million by writing his password on a lost piece of paper. In a conversation on the podcast published last Friday (15), Vinheteiro had an audio shared by the presenter, who spoke in a weak voice.
According to the TubaCast host, Luan OnofreAccording to Vinheteiro’s audio, he was talking to a specialist who helped restore cryptocurrencies.
Lord Vinheteiro admitted to hospital after losing his wallet containing bitcoins
While many thought that the situation where Lord Vinheteiro lost his bitcoin wallet was a “ace“, or just kidding, the situation seems even more serious.
While participating in TubaCast, Marcelo, an expert in recovering bitcoin wallet passwords, doubted the story. However, after listening to the audio on Luan Onofre’s mobile phone in the pianist’s faint voice, Marcelo began to believe more in the loss.
“You’re in the hospital, admitted because of the loss of 2 million, right, four bitcoins, two million. Okay, let’s assume it’s true, okay, I’ll assume this story is true as he wrote it on Twitter, where he published this storyMarcello said.
That’s what the wallet recovery specialist said, still suspicious if he really lost his wallet password, he lost his bitcoins forever. Moreover, he assumed that the story is a collaboration between Lord Vinheteiro and the owner of a second-hand bookstore near Praça da Sé, since the movement in the place could increase if people started looking for the fortune found there in a piece paper was hidden. .
“If he has the Ledger Pin, there is a chance that he will get the balance back in bitcoins,” says expert
When explaining the working mechanism of the Ledger, Marcelo stated that if Lord Vinheteiro still has a record of his hardware wallet’s access pin, he can transfer his funds to a new address. However, the expert recalls that if Vinheteiro tries to access the funds via Pin and the password is wrong three times, the wallet will automatically format the contents, which would lead to the permanent loss of the values.
“Vinheteiro, if you listened to this, here’s how it works: as long as you have your PIN, but you should know this, it should already have been explained to you, as long as you have the PIN, you can connect it to your wallet. You don’t need the backup at this point, only if the device stops working“, said the TubaCast participant.
If Lord Vinheteiro loses the PIN and the wallet backup containing the bitcoins, there is nothing left to do as the security algorithm for a bitcoin public key is indecipherable.
Finally the expert asked Anyone who wants to create a wallet must write down the words in the correct order and in an extremely safe placebecause if you lose this access, the bitcoins are lost forever.
‘If he knows the Pin, the news is good, if he doesn’t, he will cry for a long time. I would sit in the fetal position crying and imagine how much Bitcoin will be worth in ten years.
Until November 12, 2024, Lord Vinheteiro publicly stated that he had not found his bitcoin wallet.
