Title: HALP lost electrum password q.q
Post by: b1acksn0w on November 13, 2013, 07:19:36 PM
Hello, I done goofed. Long story short I made an electrum password and forgot it and, being the genius i am, iforgot my seed Q.Q
I do however have the electrum.dat file. I would like to brute force it and try to figure out the password, but I have no idea where to start Q.Q

Please someone help me, I have a whole BTC stuck in the wallet Q.Q

P.S I have backtrace if that helps

A few days ago I read a post with a script to test electrum passwords,
you need ruby to run it, maybe it helps you: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=85495.msg3546401#msg3546401

Good luck!

good luck, but you shouldn't be able to crack it. or rethink your password agenda.

none of the links have helped q.q

1. Do you remember part of your password?
2. Do you have your 12-word seed written down somewhere?
