Resolution

As it’s not the intended solution, we think it could be interesting! 🙂

Decompressing whereismypurse.7z we got 2 files:
– whereismypurse.vdi: a virtual machine
– whereismypurse.raw: its memory

Starting with the memory dump:

$ strings -e l whereismypurse.raw | grep purse | sort | uniq
?a=wmk:payto?purse=

on:Jamais [-]URL:Comment:pass to decrypt my purse : )
pass to decrypt my purse

We saw a Keepass running, but the most interesting part was about a wallet:

$ strings -e l whereismypurse.raw | grep wallet | sort | uniq

\??\C:\Users\SatNak\decred\decred-windows-amd64-v1.1.2\dcrwallet.exe

wallet.db

Except the executable, the search and the Keepass item, the only thing interesting was the “wallet.db”.
After mounting the hard drive of the VM, we looked for the walled.db on the disk, and dumped its content:

$ find . -name 'wallet.db' -exec strings {} \; | sort | uniq
