🗄 A Reddit user shared how he lost access to his BTC for 7 years over one typo. In 2017 he encrypted a BIP38 paper wallet with a password he thought was strong and easy to remember. When he tried to regain access in 2024, neither assumption held up. It turned out the error was just one character off—the adjacent key had been pressed. A reminder of how the tiniest detail matters when you’re storing cryptocurrency yourself.
