Yeah, the sucky part was we could see the ending from a mile away. There's loads of people out there with supposed Btc from "the early days" but it comes down to just a few coins from only a few years ago. There's a huge difference between spending $900 in 2012-ish to buy 15 coins, compared to spending $400 in 2017-ish to buy 0.15 coins. And then another huge difference trading them for $60k versus $20k per coin. One amounts to roughly $1Million, the other to $3,000. Or in this case, difference between $6Million versus $600.
People think it's SO EASY to get rich with Bitcoin it's embarrassing. Everything that happened to Lavar was his own fault - he didn't do his homework or safeguard his private keys.
It sure is. Try having 137BTC from early 2010 and throwing out the paper wallet when you tossed your old tax records. Here in NZ we can dispose of tax records after 7 years. C'est la vie 😞 Waiting for a miracle. We are all Satoshi!
His energy is amazing. Even the guy who could potentially have millions in his phone started getting tired but Joe powered through. This is what it looks like when you love what you do.
Well said! I am also here to learn how to invest after listening to a lady on tv talk about the importance of investing and how she made 7 figure in 3 month, somehow the video taught me nothing and left me even more confused, I'm a newbie and I'm open to ideas on how to invest for retirement
Edit: !SPOILER ALERT! . . . . . . Devastating for Lavar, but at least now he doesn't need to live with "what if" all his life. Great video Joe! Amazing work
These videos are the best on UA-cam. The rollercoaster of emotions is insane. Very well edited too. Like a mini doc. I really hope you keep doing these. It's like digging for treasure.

Honestly, probably because it feels like it's produced by the same studio doing every formulated reality show on network television. It's a topic tech enthusiasts, engineers, programmers, etc. would love to see in detail but it's edited like an episode of Hoarders and some DIY makeover show. It tries to appeal to a wide audience and checks a lot of boxes while not really focusing on any of them. I'm not saying it's bad or necessarily an issue. It's obviously pulling in views but it's basically the vanilla ice cream of content creation. He needs to figure out who his audience is. Just my two cents.
Congratulations, Dale Valskov I am relieved that you are out there fighting these thugs, We musttake every precaution to protect the elderly and the general public from these despicable con artists. Congratulations to You!! You deserve the Nobel Peace Prize for ensuring our security.
This is some of the best content I have ever seen on youtube, I feel bad for the guy bc it sounds like he got scammed honestly. After I watched your other crypto wallet and then this one I was kind of bummed you didn't have a whole series for me to binge watch. Please make more of this content in the future!!
How did he get "scammed?" His story made no sense, and he had no idea what he had, got the year wrong, and didn't even remember that his pin was the first letter of his name 🤦 The only person who got scammed is the hacker.
The efficiency of this Dale Valskov is next level.

respect mate, love to see individuals willing to teach and help their community, always a blast watching hardware hacks and hope they'll be more to come.
Great video but I am so gutted for Lavar... I was so hoping to see a life changing end for him. Good job Joe, I just had to watch this from start to finish.
This video along with your previous have got to be two of the most intriguing and entertaining videos I’ve ever seen. I absolutely love your documentary style and you just seem like such a great person with a true passion for hardware hacking. Your troubleshooting process is something I can heavily relate to in my own experience and I truly hope you continue to make videos just like this, especially now that you have thousands of people lined up in need of your help. Regardless of the outcome, what you’re doing is great and also extremely educational. Keep it up Joe!
The visual of Kingpin setting up his work station carefully, one instrument at a time, and slightly moving them a few centimeters into place is cool af
One of the best youtube videos I've seen in years! So many emotions rolled into this one video. Like the tech guy said it's a modern-day tech gold rush doing what he doing. I loved it. Back in the early days of bitcoin/cryptocurrency, it was sketchy and unreliable plus the whole idea wasn't taken seriously.
The S3 storage is unencrypted, so technically it wouldve been easier to desolder the flash chip and put it in a programmer. What are your thoughts joe? Amazing videos!
As a software engineer this makes so much sense and makes hardware hacking seem so simple but in reality I know that electrical engineering is worlds beyond how simple someone experienced like Joe makes it look. It’s amazing how much existing work can be reused here, eg. The JTag interface and software, the database mapping each checksum to its seed is so cool.
also with miracle box software the good old galaxy s3 pattern can be read via USB cable by one click of a button that takes 0.021 second to proccces he is just complicating things by doing a j-tag any repair shop in any town or country can do that because android 4 is shit, I'll be imporssed when he try this to android 8 and up to 12
I feel bad for both because I believe he charges a percentage to hack the wallets...and both came out losing but a emotional nerve racking video and definitely a learning experience for both men
Account of mine also got hacked and I followed the method as explained in this video but I'm unable to proceed after recording the selfie video. Thank you Dale Valskov . It brings me immense joy to witness his name appearing frequently in comments, a clear indication of the commendable work he’s been doing.
You could really tell how nervous the owner was. Awesome video. Btw I LOVE the soldered on external jtag breakout, it always looks so cool to have almost invisible tiny strands of wire come together on a breakout board and connect to a reader
Just found this channel, thats the 3rd video Im watching in a roll. Im addicted to this channel already and I must say the not only Joe is an amazing character and hero, but the crew behind this, I can tell they're amazing pros. The editing is fucking amazing. Congrats guys, incredible quality content.
Ahh yes, the days of xbox 360 JTAG days with IN4001 zener diodes and resistors. I miss the simpler times. Good news, RGH 3.0 doesn't require a mod chip like earlier versions.
I must admit this is the only youtube video that gives me a hell lot of dopamine, being a firmware engineer I could exactly feel the agonizing pain of not halting the core. Joe please more videos like this. This is the best video I have ever seen on youtube.
As a person and professional you couldn't get any better than Dale Valskov is a very reliable person and an excellent professional in the IT field. He is the type of person you want to work that's passionate, hardworking and knowledgeable. You’re The Best 100%
somehow, also on computers, this kind of stuff always seems to happen when your client is right there while you are working on the device. what seems to be straightforward and easy turns into a rabbit hole of twists and turns.
Hey Joe, absolutely love the video! And I can relate to so many stuff going on as to JTAG here. Back in the 2014 days of Galaxy S3 and such, accessing the NAND without a hard wired solution was almost never gonna connect. Let alone hold reading the whole chip if it connected to begin with.. What a fine memory 😊 thank you
I think the correct amount of bitcoins was there, and he is a millionaire now. If this is my phone I will do the same deal. You can show my face we can record it but let's show at the final just 1k USD in bitcoins to keep my wealth confidential.
It could have been done via software without the JTAG. The gesture.key file has to be blanked so no code will be shown at the startup. I believe he knew this but he wanted to build a show around it to make more money with the views. Fair enough. The wallet video remains the best, so far.
You could have just flash TWRP recovery. Then use it's built in file explorer to remove the “gesture.key“. And then when the device ask for Gesture, just draw anything and it will be accepted.
Well yeah, but doesn't that work when USB debugging is enabled? I have a friend who was sold a stolen Samsung unknowingly. Tried flashing TWRP but couldn't since USB debugging is not enabled. Anyways, some expert managed to get through it. But of course the data was wiped. I assumed that would be the case if he tried to flash TWRP without USB debugging enabled.
This is the most invested I've gotten in a video in a long time, it was so stressful and engaging
then you clearly havent seen his other video
Haha, that guy who lost 6million in btc has to have stolen phone from someone he over heard talking

USB debugging isn't required. From galaxy s1 to S5 and note 1 to note 3, I have never enabled USB debugging to flash TWRP or Kernel.

Exactly, but TWRP won't make it a profitable video isn't it? 😉
Yeah that's what I do
Loved every bit of it. Especially the error part - seemed my day-to-day experience being shown to me on screen.
