I lost access to my blockchain account but i have the backup passphrase, i have imported the address to a new wallet on a different blockchain account and it requests the private key inorder to use the funds. Please what can i do?

Since you have the passphrase, then there is nothing you can do but what I am surprised about is the fact that blockchain.info asking for private key when they don't provide one because everything they do is just the passphrase and I expect that you should have uncontrolled access since you have done that already. However, there is a way to get the private key though an external way, I have not used it before but several others have used it so that's a disclaimer https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1396233.msg15994971#msg15994971 Title: Re: Recover BTC using backup passphrase Post by: nwankwotech on November 04, 2017, 07:21:51 PM Hello, I lost access to my blockchain account but i have the backup passphrase, i have imported the address to a new wallet on a different blockchain account and it requests the private key inorder to use the funds.

I have the 17 word passphrase but when i enter it on bip39-master/bip39-standalone.html, it does not work. Any alternative to this? |
