Title: Waves seed incorrect - can't access my wallet HELP!
Post by: f1tz14 on November 29, 2017, 01:50:17 PM
Hi everyone,

I stupidly copied my waves wallet seed from mobile and only copied 12 of 15 seed words and now can’t access it. I have 12 words and positions but not the final 3! Has anybody had the same problem and managed to resolve it (brute force the final 3 words based on the list of words used)?

I know that’s a shed load of combinations but any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

good luck with that.

you can try guessing it forever but i doubt you can. there are millions of things to copy but the most important was the one that you actually miss. if those waves are just few. you can start forgetting it now.

Thanks for the response and very helpful to point out what I already know. I wasn’t referring to guessing, more a script/software question to the community devs/coders for scripts or customised software to achieve it. Being a hero member I thought you would get that when I said ‘brute force’.

With 12 secure words and missing three words, I wouldn't give up to early, depending on the value of waves funds.
Post your issue on technical support.
Maybe you will get good advices.
