The problem is that Mr. Thomas years ago lost the paper where he wrote down the password for his IronKey...

Perfect. ‘Cause writing down a password on a sheet of paper is super secure, especially when dealing with a possible $200M fortune.

I’d give him a strategy, other than exhausting his last two guesses, but he’s too stupid to warrant help.

In fact, considering the alleged amount of money involved, I’m beginning to think this story is fake. Nobody could be this dumb.

Id bet its not fake.

I have a crypto wallet, not this particular one, but the instruction state in bold letters,

DO NOT LOSE YOUR PASSWORD, because if you do, there is a chance

you will never be able to access your currencies.

At the time people did a lot of this (there’s supposed to be ~7000 on a hard drive in an Irish landfill) btc had negligible value.

He can claim $200M as an IRS income loss, right?
