Lost wallet/account info

Thu Dec 14, 2017 8:56 pm

I started a wallet, bought a few initially and started a mining op when Bitcoin was just starting. I had several computers crash and burn since then and forgot my login info, what email I used (surely don't have access to it even if I did remember) and don't even remember my wallet. Is there any way I can access my account? I know many are going to laugh at this, but I may as well try to recover if I can.

First of all, please do not spam our forum. You only need to post the same question once, thanks.

Now if you really did mine and purchase bitcoin when Bitcoin was just starting then you should know where you purchased from?
Also what wallet were you using and what year was this?

Basically if you don't have your wallet backup file then you have no chance at all to recover the bitcoins.

Sorry, not meaning to spam. Thanks for the reply. It was back in 2009 or 2010, but I don't remember any of it, so I guess it's just bitcoin in the wind. What happens to the lost ones?
