Title: brute force electrum seeds
Post by: btcpepa04 on October 24, 2017, 05:27:10 AM
I try to brute force electrum seeds (12 words/2048 words ) I brute force mind of person trying to find a private seeds result:
1_"1b" i find in this wallet 0.7 BTC
2_"above above above above above above above above above above above above " I FIND 1mBTC
3_"ghost ghost ghost ghost" I find in this  seeds 0.72 mBTC
My priv8 mind to brute force  ::)
Try my methode

I think those are not seeds but brain wallets instead.

The checksum wouldn't work with your seeds.

I think this is hypnotism to get the seeds from other people This will doesn't work if the person you wanted to brute force his or her mine wouldn't know about bitcoin. and i think most of the other people didn't memorize their bitcoin seeds
Mostly they are wrote in the piece of paper or they printed seeds and private keys so i will say only few people that you can do this trick..

I don't get what you've done here, how did you "brute force" those seeds?
Are they yours and your just spreading FUD, or can you sign a message from each of those wallets to show you've hacked it?

Also, everyone who uses electrum uses seeds (unless they import addresses which isn't recommended at all).

Seeds are required for you to import on new electrum specially if the application or wallet have removed from a pc but yet I cant think off that this would really be possible to be bruteforce. You would still need that wallet.dat for sure not only on having those guessing seed. I do call this stuff as a joke. Bruteforcing those wallet seed 12 words is not really an easy stuff and yet you need those things before you can able to access it and yet op doesn't have any screenshots on what he was trying to claim on here.

I think if you have seeds you dont need wallet.dat you can import your seeds even in other wallet without the wallet.dat
Well Its possible to bruteforce some seeds but it needs a super PC to generate more faster.. but i think he is just generating seeds with his mind  and import to electrum until he found some bitcoins but watch only..
It takes a lot of time to wait for 12 seed phrase before you can get a working seeds with bitcoin. and i think it takes a year or more before you can get bitcoin with bruteforcing..

It's an unreasonable statistic to be able to bruteforce a seed as you may get lucky and make a wallet and have several btc sitting there waiting for you but luckily (or unluckily based on your point of view) this doesn't happen.
A watching only wallet compes from a public key either mpk (master public key) or xpub (extended public key). Nevertheless it'd take more than a year with a fairly good computer to crack the seed.
If anyone has a calculator there are 2180 possible seeds that can be produced. And with each, the entire blockchain has to be scanned. (For the faßtest hard drives, this still would take more than 12 seconds per address)
