Hi,

I wrote my private key on the paper, and i tried to retrieve the btc from the address recently, but found my private key only contain 50 characters! It is my mistake when record down the private key!!

The private key format is WIF without any compressed, base58, start with "5".
I've 50 characters on hand, is there any brute force tools to calculate the key in quick way?

Thank you.
