Man Recovers 9 year-old Lost Bitcoin Wallet with $400k Using Claude AI

A man recovered a Bitcoin wallet containing 5 bitcoins (worth ~$400k today) that was lost for 9 years by using Claude AI to analyze old college notes and identify possible password patterns. Claude brute-forced the wallet entry based on common phrases and alphanumeric combinations found in the notes, though the underlying Bitcoin private key remains cryptographically unbreakable.
