Can you imagine if you owned 7,002 bitcoin, and you were in this guy's shoes???

I feel for him

Sadly - I sense he will fail in those 2 last attempts

I would think knowing how much money is at stake he would have at least written down the PW some place

On the bathroom wall. Put in the form of a phone number and have the person calling ask for Jenny!

There are a few log in PW and the link I really need. They are tough to remember. So what I do is under a phone contact I rarely use I put the PW where I would put their email. Now all I need to do is check that contact and it is there and no one would think of looking for it there

IF he loses the money the best way to make it all back and more is to pay for Vegas Dave's picks. Since VD has never lost a game in his life this guy will be worth more than Elon Musk and Jeff BOZOS - combined - by the end of the year

These aren't regular passwords. Most are minimum 32 letters, symbols and/or numbers. But like many
said above, you'd think he would have wrote it down in 32 different places for that kind of money.

No password re-set either

I saw an interview with the man. He didn't seem THAT concerned with it, he had bought a lot more later on and said he hadf more money than he knew what to do with.

It's strange that he says he has two more attempts since there's no limit on password tries.

Those are private keys that you are talking about. Wallets have passwords that you can set up. They also have backup paraphrases. Some are 12 words, others 24 words.

I guess that is not the case here. It said he has 10 tries and he has used 8. So he does not have unlimited tries and knowing how that market works maybe for the best

Just read again, it's his hard drive that he's trying to unlock. As long as you own your private keys, password/passphrase attempts are unlimited.
