if so then i think its not possible to brute force it currently, hence why he protected it in the first place.

was it a paper wallet or he created it with a software?

The seed is the only thing you need to restore a wallet. I have never used darkwallet, so i can't give you a detailed path to restore your wallet. But isn't it possible to create a new wallet using the old seed? And afterwards either sending your coins to a new address or exporting the private key? I don't know how darkwallet derives keys from a seed. Might be worth checking their github.
Bitcoin doesn't have "stealth address (es)"
import your seed phrase into a compatible wallet with the correct derivation path and it will generate your private key & address too.
He is talking about the Darkwallet for bitcoin. I am not sure whether this wallet supports BIP32 (HD wallets) or BIP39 (mnemonic seed). @OP: Does your seed consist of 12/18/24 words? Or does it look like a random string? (Do not expose your seed to anyone!) I did and it restores my non stealth addresses perfectly using the m/44/0'/0 path but I can't seem to find how to restore the stealth addresses. I was able to find out the public address associated with this my stealth address: vJmtK3LT44vwTFfdiCEV5Di7yaWBXot3RwDs98Rp96iVJUX6Nw66gDLPw3MTthHoqyqrmBqzsdfWBgy zirAfGQGbnL5tBbkJcPwJa, which is this: 127gF6Hs6eLyLDjySajD8gwJ7MANnGUrPx but I don't know how to find the private key

However for any coin the process is the same: import your seed phrase into a compatible wallet with the correct derivation path and it will generate your private key & address too.
I guess you joined bitcoin late, read about it. Dark wallet had stealth addresses and this is an example of one of the addresses I had vJmtK3LT44vwTFfdiCEV5Di7yaWBXot3RwDs98Rp96iVJUX6Nw66gDLPw3MTthHoqyqrmBqzsdfWBgy zirAfGQGbnL5tBbkJcPwJav

Do this Download Electrum LTC on your PC Open it, click new wallet> standard wallet> i have seed> put the right seed there> click next then your wallet will be created. go to the address tab and look for this address MCs8jJexAf8UhxC4KgRneSayAx6Aincbbz right click and copy the private key. go to liteaddress.org click on the wallet details tab> paste the private key there. now copy the hexadecimal key given at the bottom of the page.
go to bitaddress.org, also go to the wallet details tab and paste the hexadecimal key there, it should give you two addresses and two different keys. copy the compressed private key and go to segwitaddress.org, scroll down to the last tab and paste the key there, you'll find that it matches the address.
now import the key into electrum and your coins would show
here's my address, leave a big tip 19Q2fJ2qEfLXnYpQU7eqAGCeucK8NVapw6
Hi, I tried this and it only shows my LTC transactions, nothing else. Also there is no option to 'go to the address tab' and look for any addresses. Open electrum ltc, click on view and click show addresses, the address tab should pop up.
