Hi,

I got 14 of 15 words of my WAVES seed phrase. I dont know the position of the missing word, i do have the public key...

So odds arent too bad right? is there a tool that I can use? I bet I am not the first noob to have this kind of problem...


Thanks in advance for any helpful answer

There are 2048 possible words to choose from for the missing word.

There are 15 positions that the missing word could be in.

That's 2048 X 15 = 30,720 possibilities total.

I'm not sure if there is a tool, but it wouldn't be difficult to create one, and it shouldn't take more than a few minutes for a modern computer to try all 30,720 possibilities.

Thanks for your answer, very helpful!

Is it important thats its a waves wallet and nit bitcoin?

Maybe i will have to learn how to code now
