Title: wallet.eas.json (Blockchain).
Post by: whyallthefuss on August 16, 2017, 07:42:40 AM
Hi there :).

So here I am, in the Club of idiots that forgets their password.  :-\

I have my BTC at blockchain.

Here is what I have:

1. Wallet ID
2. wallet.aes.json (Backup file)
3. Think I can remember 80% of the password.

I think I will go with bruteforcing the .json file, as I do know mostly of the password.

My question to all you btc lovers is:

The .json file is from 2013, I did login to my btc wallet last in 2015 - when I have to do bruteforce on the .json, is it then the password from when the .json file was made
- or the last password that I did enter at my blockchain account ?.

I did some thinking, my personal answer would be, - It must be the last updated password in blockchain.

Right ?.

Thank you Guys SO much in advance.

Sincerely the dumbass that forgot his password.

Hello,
Do you know your wallet mnemonic which was shown you in the introduction?
If so, then you can recover the password with this page (it is an archived page which decrypts your mnemonic to plain password):

Once done, you could use the Wallet-UID and decrypted password to log in.
If you are still not able to log in because of wrong Wallet-UID. You can import the wallet with this page:
https://blockchain.info/wallet/import-wallet (https://blockchain.info/wallet/import-wallet).
