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

    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
