I'm afraid this isn't logged anywhere. Ain't it nice there are proxies to hide you if you want to hack something?

I thought this was the big feature of Bitcoin?
by Forum moderator Mar 4, 2019 8:42AM PST

But first the answer is no. You won't be doing that.

My input is if the wallets are this insecure, you've learned a valuable and expensive lesson. I'm no bitcoin expert and most are not experts but there to sell you on their coins and systems. My view is maybe cold storage is best if that works for you.

Again, harsh expensive way to learn about the dark side of bitcoin.

Contact the police

Since you have lost a significant amount of money from an online account, you should contact the police about this. If required, they can get access to authentication records to help them identify who accessed your account that was compromised and possibly help you recover some or all of the stolen money. Please note, this may take some time to be completed.
