Dad lost 1.5K BTC bought around 2011 - I'm trying to help retrieve it and need your help

Hi Reddit,

My dad Bought around 1500 BTC back in 2011.

He got a tip from a colleague and didn't hesitate to try it out.

He bought it with his e-mail from the company he used to work at (CISCO), at the time and doesn't remember which wallet he used (probably limited wallet options at that time).

He left the company around 2013 and his e-mail etc. from his time in the company has probably been deleted for the better part of 6-7 years.


Is there any chance or just the smallest of hope of retrieving his wallet, or is it just bad luck/stupidity from my dad?


I hope you can help and let me know if I need to pursue this.


Cheers.
