Not proud of this but my stupidity has cost me. I've forgotten my SR password, forgotten my SR Forum password twice and the best part is that I have no idea what my Bitcoin passphrase is. I know Bitcoin says that if you lose your passphrase you're fucked but is there anyway to go into your computer and find the passphrase?

Lesson to learned. Don't count on your brain to remember passwords. Write that shit down!!
So within a week, I've gotten phished and lost money by someone else and then I lost my passphrase and lost my own money. Yes, I'm fucking retarded.
::)

::pats him on the back:: this is just not your week :-\
I honestly don't know how you would go about getting your passphrase back. I am just here to offer condolences.

Thanks. And the weird thing is I've forgotten passwords to a bunch of sites. Sites that I was just on yesterday afternoon and then last night it's like they were wiped from my memory. And it's not drug related. I haven't done any drugs in a while.

I advise you to take some drugs, this might help you remember

I think you have just lost at the Internet.

I really don't know what happened. It's like someone wiped my memory. I was logged in fine yesterday and then last night I forgot passwords to not just these sites but a bunch of others. I think it's stress related. Those fucking bitcoins would have come in handy to buy a little weed.

Yup, I've learned the hard way, to use keepass...well, actually, I now use keepassx, because I can use it on any platform...I know now they have keepass2, but anyway, I'm rambling... and I save a a kdb file online in a storage site: I recommend SwissDisk.com, but there are others, probably better...very easy to stash the databases in a file anywhere, flash drive, piece of paper tacked to the wall, u name it...
In keepassx you can keep all this vital info in one spot, plus you can use, and have them create, totally tough passwords, no more dog's name, and mom's birthday and that kind of crap....
So as soon as I boot up Tails, and get the updates and a couple apps, I can shoot over and get my keypass file, which has everything I need...it's the only way to go, as it's a bummer to go thru what you wen thru, and not be able to get back in...

Considering how many bitcoins are allowed to ever be in circulation, I wonder howmany bitcoins will end up like this. Forever stuck in an account with no way to access them.
