How researchers cracked an 11-year-old password to a $2 million+ crypto wallet

Wired has the story (Wired may be gated) of a BTC owner who lost the password to his encrypted wallet containing 43 Bitcoin.

He contacted “an electrical engineer who began hacking computing hardware at age 10” to help him crack the password and get into his wallet.

TL;DR is the job got done – worth a read!
