"jack the ripper tutorial bitcoin"
Are there any good guides out there? I found one a few days ago, but can't find it now.
Trying to use JTR on Mac
Sure, here is my guide for it:
1. Don't use Jack the ripper for password cracking
2. Use a program that utilizes GPU like hashcat
3. Use an option -m 11300 for cracking Bitcoin wallet.dat in hashcat
4. Other options depend on your situation
who tired both and who can tell the diffrences?
I was able to setup btc recover, and was getting 1400 pass / secs, but hashcats seems to be better even if I didn't tried it.

Excuse my dumb question, but.. did you even read this thread?
Short summary:
- JackTheRipper = CPU cracking
- Hashcat = GPU cracking
- GPU waaaay faster than CPU
But, to be honestly.. if you need to ask such questions on this forum.. i don't think you are capable of "cracking a wallet".
May i ask whether you have forgotten your password (which makes it easier to crack your wallet file if you remember parts of your password)?
Or are you trying to "make money" with cracking wallets? In this case, you can pretty much forget that and should turn over to something which isn't pure waste of time.
And for the future: Please google first. This forum (especially this subforum) is related to Bitcoin. Its not a guide on how to crack wallets. Particularly not if you are trying to do blackhat-stuff.
everyone is capable of cracking anything with the proper software, hardware and time, no need to be a arrogant, anyone included the best of the best were all beginners at some point what they now master. So there is no reason for the poster not to be able to achieve anything he wants.
If cracking wallet.dat password isn't part of this forum, nothing is.
What kind of though police school did you went? the one where you decided the rules, what is to be said and not?
