NEED HELP PLEASE


BuddyBuddy

Recommended Posts

I recently was a victim of a burglary and a very large and extremely heavy safe was stolen out of my house and it contained my Ledger Nano S WITH my 24 recovery words.  I was planning on moving them to a safety deposit box but I didn't do it in time.  I'm an idiot, I know but I never imagined 3 men walking out of my house with my safe that they could barely lift. 

I can see that the XRP has not been accessed on the xrpcharts.ripple.com but is there ANY way to lock them up or access them with a court order?  Is there ANYTHING anyone can think of?  I'm almost positive the thieves don't know what they have.  There is a very large amount of XRP on there so this will be extremely painful if they are all lost.  

 

Any advice would be helpful.

I don't buy it. :beee:

I thought to give BuddyBuddy the benefit of the doubt. Waiting to see what the response is before I either help or ignore. With all of the FUD doing the rounds I am suspicious of posts like this as well.

The elephant in the room is the question: ownership of digital assets. 

To my understanding, there is no "ownership". There is only the secret key that grants permission to modify entries related to the corresponding address on the ledger. Who ever has the knowledge of the secret key has the ability to transfer/trade etc any tokens related to that "wallet". In the case of the ledger nano s, you give permission to the nano to "look after your secret key" and by proxy you access using the 24 word pass-phrase.

Moral of the story...... always keep a copy of your secret key backed up/hidden/secure etc as this is your only right of control.
