No one else can use it so maybe I can do some good with that money

    You are provided the details precisely as you wished, but not the wallet. You are consumed by greed losing everything you value in pursuit of lost billions searching for one more crypto wallet on which to test your key.

      No offense but it’s kinda funny how neither you nor op seem to understand how crypto wallets work.

        I was thinking of asking for something like the wallet address / private key / encryption password but thought I might get snagged on a technicality. Decided to just ask for everything

          Yes does not actually matter that much for this thought experiment anyways!

          If we want to get technical: For most crypto currencies you only need a private key to gain access to a wallet. You don’t need anything else, not even the address of that wallet! I just found the thought of someone going “I got the key to this btc wallet with one gazillion btc but I don’t have the wallet it belongs too! Welp, nothing I can do about it I guess!” funny. 😁

            Ah interesting, good to know 😄

            If I ever find a private key, I’ll come back here to split it with you
