My uncle works in emergency data recovery workshop on SSDs and HDDs. You can definitely recover it if you sent it to a shop.

By realizing that literally not a single crypto project is viable yet, and so everyone is just speculating and losing money.

Stop. Fucking. Investing. If you have no objective facts about why it will make you money.

>he didn't "lose" his crypto by spending it

I bought a quarter of weed for ~30 BTC on the original silk road, and a handful of years later lost ~2.5 BTC playing dice on YoBit. At least it was a conscious decision, but I still feel like a brainlet for spending because I knew that $10,000 would eventually happen. Thankfully I did keep some holdings on a paper wallet for future suicide insurance.

My Uncle works in Canada, he works on this full-time all his life.
Here is his website.
If youd rather work with someone in your state just look for emergency data recovery services.

email: tunstall@datarecoveryservices.com

Just tell him what happened to your computer what state is it in like if it boots or not and then he will tell you what he can offer in terms of diagnostics.

I lost about that as well. Early casual BTC and LTC mining onto a drive that failed & I tossed without thinking about it. Luckily I had a few LTC on another drive, but basically dust compared to what I originally had. Fml. OP, you'll get over it. Let it be a lesson in not being a careless retard with this shit.

Don't worry about it bro.
Like I said its really not that hard to recover data from harddrives people have this issue happen all the time. If you take it to the right place chances are the drive is recoverable.
