Claude recovers ₹4-cr bitcoin 11 yrs after owner set strong password & forgot what it was
short by Ashley Paul / on Thursday, 14 May, 2026
Claude helped an X user recover five bitcoin worth $406,383.35 (₹4 crore) that he'd been unable to access for 11 years. He'd made "really complicated passwords" for his crypto wallet and forgot one of the three passwords after changing it several years ago. He uploaded his college notebooks and laptop into Claude, which then analysed them and recovered the password.
