Robert Rhodin, the CEO of KeychainX, said the delighted DOGE investor has promised to share a beer next time he is in town. The most nerve-wracking moment involved completing a small test transaction to ensure that DOGE from the amount could safely reach its new destination.Įxtra precautions were also taken to ensure that keyloggers weren’t installed that could cause the funds to disappear. Because it dated back six years, the team estimated that it would take several days to sync. One of the most nail-biting points for KeychainX was ensuring that the funds in the wallet were safely moved. From here, they analysed the wallet he used to assess the type of wallet encryption that had been deployed.Īn endless range of experimentation took place - and then a breakthrough happened: They realized that part of the wallet owner’s hints may be the PIN.
The KeychainX team got to work by asking for numbers that had significance to him - such as the year of his birth. Here’s the problem: the PIN to his Android wallet was 12 digits long, something that the company thought would be impossible to crack in a lifetime. Fast forward to now and its value had increased by more than 2,000x - and would now be worth more than $3 million.

KeychainX said it was contacted by a retired truck driver who had purchased a massive Dogecoin stash in 2015 for about $1,500. A wallet recovery service says it has achieved the impossible - opening up a six-year-old wallet that contained 10 million DOGE.
