Can I recover my account on blockchain.com -2FA, password lost, email accessible

[tranthidung]

Hi all,

Can I recover my account on blockchain.com if I lost my password and 2FA code, just have access to my email used to register that account months ago?

Thank you all very much for any guide to recover my account.

Do you still have the SEED? it's a BIP39 mnemonic and can be restored in Electrum or others.

If you're using Electrum->New/Restore->I already have a seed,
just click "option" and enable "BIP39" below the seed input box.
If you still prefer to use blockchain(dot)com, here's the native recovery page: https://login.blockchain.com/#/recover

No, I don't have seed. I created it in 2017 and it is my very first bitcoin wallet. I just reset 2FA of that account minutes ago, but the recovery page has only one option, which requires seed. Are there other way to recover my account without seed?

As I know you can't. You should have a password or recovery phrase.

This link for old recovery phrase:
https://login.blockchain.com/wallet/forgot-password

For new HD:
https://login.blockchain.com/#/recover

Reset 2FA:
https://login.blockchain.com/#/reset-2fa

And wallet ID reminder (but you can get it from old emails):
https://login.blockchain.com/#/reminder

So, I don't see any option for you.
And you can contact Support.

Without the seed, the only way to recover it is to find your wallet.aes.json to bruteforce the passphrase;
but if it's 2017, I doubt that they've sent it to your email.

Resetting/Disabling 2FA wont help if you can't access your account via WalletID+passphrase.
They can't help you with your lost passphrase either:

And if you do not have or find your wallet.aes.json you can use this tutorial to get it, I used it before:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rMtW8vIHHek

Note: You need your wallet ID and the registered email to get the .json file

but the question, even after you get your .json wallet and Bruteforce it. Can you really unlock your 2FA? I never know about this before.

The only way to recover fund by use your 12 word recovery phrase if you forget password. There is no any option for password reset on blockchain wallet. They do not store any password and they never recover password. Try will all of password that you are using mostly. Use your best gueses. Only single way to recover fund by genarate password since you do not have recovery phrase.

If you failed eventually then you might try their services. Their reviews are almost good.

For remove 2FA you don't need to use password. They will ask for wallet ID and original email that you use during registration. You might also change your email address on this process if you lost previous mail.

If that is the case, then he can use that tutorial that I shared upon him.
I had used that before to recover my .json wallet and then Bruteforcing the file to recover my password.
the process is not complicated and very easy to understand.

Download Btcrecover > input wallet id > get the .json file > bruteforce it

First you need to ask them to remove the 2FA (from support)
Second click on forget ID and ask them to send you wallet ID. (click on send my wallet ID on login page) or here: https://login.blockchain.com/#/reminder
Third you use the script in btcrecover called download-blockchain-wallet using the ID they mail you, you might need to confirm with email.
Then once you have the wallet.aes.json you can use John the ripper to extract the hash and then use software like hashcat to bruteforce it
if you remember part of the password. if you dont remember it, hire someone to do it for you.

Good luck!

It is possible but it would require weeks of back and forth with support if not months.

A friend of mine lost his 2nd password - well he didn't lose it, he never even had it in the first place. Then they placed the force upgrade to HD wallets and viola even his recovery keys won't work.

Even after months of back and forth with the support, his situation remained unchanged. And he had hundreds of thousands of dollars in there. (I verified)

So the important question is, do you have enough money in there for you to take all this hassle?

I watched the video, that is great and I will try it when I have time.

In fact, I don't have too much bitcoin in that wallet, and I am only curious that there are ways to recover wallets on blockchain.com without seeds. Now I see we can do it. However, the key things is we have to remember some keywords that we would used for our wallets, better combination of phrases/ digits as we remember will help to bruteforce password more easily and faster.

The speed of the wallet recovery also depends when you created the wallet and which version. There is a huge difference in recovering a wallet from 2014 or 2018.

I have managed to get 50million guesses on a 2013 blockchain wallet where a newer version from 2018/2019 is a comple different ballgame.

but if it's 2017, I doubt that they've sent it to your email.

Do they not send wallet file through email anymore? I only had a few wallets created before 2014 and I received my wallet backup file through email for all of them.

OP, are you sure you thoroughly checked your email? Here's how I solved my similar issue (I had lost my secondary password, so I could see my balance but I couldn't spend it without the secondary pass):

[...]

One day, suddenly, my secondary password stopped being recognized. [...] Months later, I entered my e-mail and made a quick search with the keyword "Blockchain", and scrolled down to my very first received e-mails. The second one I got had a "wallet.aes.json" file attached to it, which I downloaded and imported at https://blockchain.info/wallet/import-wallet, which imported my lost account without a password.. and that's how I got my funds back.

I hope I helped you get your funds back. This is how I got mine, so long after trying thousands of password combinations and even asking some wallet recovery services for help.

[...]

This is my 2 cents. If I didn't help at all, I'll let the other members here help you as I don't have enough BTC knowledge to help you further even if I'd like to.
