AI tool recovers 5 BTC wallet after 11 years by fixing recovery software bug

A crypto user regained access to 5 BTC, worth about $400K, after 11 years of failed attempts using Anthropic's Claude AI. The AI analyzed old local files and found a critical bug in the btcrecover software that had tried trillions of password combinations unsuccessfully. Fixing this bug allowed the correct password to work, opening the wallet. This case highlights that while Bitcoin's encryption remains secure, AI can help identify software flaws in recovery tools, potentially unlocking lost crypto assets stored on old devices.
