do you have access to a time machine? no other solution comes to mind if you had assets stored at that address. if the wallet was empty you can just reset it and start again.

@Mohanad1 As answered by lowner, there’s not much you can do. Wallet is self custody and nobody but you has access. If you did not keep your password and/or recovery phrase somewhere safe, then losing it means losing access. There’s no “locksmith” to try to unlock it for you or anything. And Brave can’t unlock it, as they don’t have keys or anything. It’s one of the big risks about self custody wallets.
