Title: How to get the private key from Breadwallet w/ the recovery phrase? Post by: jrohazn on August 03, 2017, 06:58:48 AM I'm new to this and I was wondering if I could derive the private key from Breadwallet with my recovery phrase? I went to BIP32.org, and typed in the recovery phrase. Would the private key be the one listed as "Private key (WIF)"? I need it so I could sweep it in Coinomi to receive the BCH. Thank you!

You downloaded it and used it offline right? Anyway, you're better off using this tool: https://iancoleman.github.io/bip39/ DON'T use the online web version... download it (instructions at the bottom of the page) and use it offline! For Breadwallet, it uses a derivation path of m/0'/0 for receive addresses and m/0'/1 for change addresses... (the same as MultiBit HD)... so you can enter your recovery phrase where it says "BIP39 Mnemonic"... then click "BIP32" under Derivation Path... then set Client to "Custom" and set the BIP32 Derivation Path to m/0'/0... https://talkimg.com/images/2023/11/15/zqtv2.png your addresses/keys will show at the bottom (You may need to click show more if you've used a lot): https://talkimg.com/images/2023/11/15/zqzgc.png Once you're sure you've copied all the receive addresses/keys that have coins... check your change addresses, set the BIP32 Derivation Path to m/0'/1: https://talkimg.com/images/2023/11/15/zqNuP.png Title: Re: How to get the private key from Breadwallet w/ the recovery phrase?

Would have saved me a few minutes of Googling if I noticed, but oh well... :D Good post!
