Anyone Remember Know About Blob Vault?

Recommended Posts

Hello Everyone, I started with ripple in 2013. Life got busy yada yada. Didn't use the email I had on file with ripple so didn't know about migration. I know my username, my ripple address, but not my password or secret key. Now I did find a 496 character count text file on my old computer I named Ripple Wallet. From researching on the web it appears it might be from something that use to exist for Ripple called Blob Vault? Can anyone confirm? My question is can this 496 characters that I guess contains my secret key? be decrypted? I'd appreciate any help on this and if someone thinks they could fairly easily solve this for me I'd be willing to pay some for the help/walk me through on some sort of messenger.

Does the file end with a '=' character?

It is likely your encrypted blobvault. It then indeed contains your secret key.

You do need a username AND a password to decrypt it though.

Some more questions if anyone knows.I believe I have my username correct because I have an old email from Ripple asking me to verify my account and the link is https://www.rippletrade.com/#/register/activate/WhatIBelieveMyUsernameHere/then a string of random letters and numbers. Would "WhatIBelieveMyUsernmaeHere" indeed be my username? Also does anyone know what the parameters were for creating a password back in 2013. Did have to include uppercase and lowercase etc.

[mention=58]Mercury[/mention] Thanks for the link. Still not able to get in. What does KFC stand for? 

Kentucky fried chicken... I kid. KYC stand for Know Your Client. It's a financial term, it means the business or bank have to prove that they know who thier customer is for regulatory and anti money laundering reasons. Normally this is an exchange asking for copies of national ID, address, etc.

@Mercury Read that as KFC and that's all I could think of haha. I'm not sure to best honest if I did KYC with ripple. I read that PDF it brings you the https://id.ripple.com/auth/migrate link. Could KYC help me at all if I just knew the username and not password? As that page doesn't let me get to another step with the invalid username and password.
