Hi all,
So I know it's a LONG shot, but back in August of 2013, I had 40 BTC stolen. Basically somebody hacked into my Gmail, found my wallet.dat file, and then moved my coins from my blockchain wallet (https://blockchain.info/tx/3ea2a7343d5623058ac7cc403d82e4fc9a351ef0e8818f1fe0d1b3351e6ad434). I was quite dumb back then, and didn't have 2FA enabled on my Gmail.
I am not tech savvy enough to try to identify the perpetrator (though I know even if I was it's very difficult due to possible IP masking and use of a mixer), but is there any way I can post a bounty here for 5 BTC if somebody is able to track down my coins so I can retrieve them? Or is there somewhere else I can post a similar bounty?
I know it's a very long-shot, but I feel like $25K USD may make it worthwhile to try for somebody. I can obviously provide more detail (and some of that can be found here - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=269443.msg2882400#msg2882400)
Thanks!

What makes you think they wouldn't just keep the money if they found it?

I didn't even make it this far before I had to make that post but holy shit does it get worse. I have no words at this point.

also curious
Oh yeah, I'm well aware than I was / am an idiot... As for guaranteeing the 5 BTC bounty, I'm sure there is something that can be worked out via escrow, a legal document, or something. I don't have the technical know how to find the thief, so I'm happy to shell out $25K in BTC if it can be recovered.
