Hi everyone,

I am new to Bitcoin, so excuse my ignorance.

I have setup a Blockchain wallet on my iOS device and transfered some funds to it; I am not a big fan of the design thou (they need to optimize for iphone 6<) and read a lot of great stuff about Breadwallet, both in terms of security (decentralized etc.) as well as design.
My issue now is, when trying to put in my 12-word recovery key, it re-syncs (which takes many hours!) - and once it has finished syncing, it says that I have 0 funds and that there have been no transactions. I have tried to re-sync 4-5 times, but still nothing shows up. I even tried downloading Breadwallet on my work-phone, but with the same result.

If I download any other wallet and put in my recovery key I can find my funds and transactions. What am I doing wrong?

If I just set up a new wallet on Breadwallet I can transfer money to it and it seems fine and dandy. That wallet I can delete from Breadwallet and add again (and then re-sync for many hours!) and it will appear with the correct funds and transactions.

Does the 12-word recovery key only work on the same wallet-provider? (and maybe others that use same encryption key or whatever?)


Thank you for your help.

EDIT: I can transfer funds from my Blockchain wallet to Breadwallet (they have the same 12-word recovery key), but they seem to be two completely different wallets?
