Are you trying recoverying the seed through this method Seedrecover Quick Start Guide

If you don't have one of the these below.

  • or Electrum (1.x or 2.x), a copy of your wallet file (a wallet file using Electrum 2.8's new full-file encryption won't work here), or
  • your master public key (sometimes called an xpub), or
  • a receiving address that was generated by your wallet from your seed, along with a good estimate of how many addresses you created before the receiving address you'd like to use, or

It's a time consuming to guess your right addresses if you don't have the above you must follow the Recovery with an Address Database

Because without them it's impossible to recover the right seed.

Do you have any record of a transaction? Or maybe you have an old transaction in your mobile browser history?
Just check the possible place where you use your addresses like sending bitcoin to a friend or use your address from gambling casino?

I am checking against the address database, yes. I have checked every exchange, every screenshot and every document. I can't find any signs of what address I used. Also, in case of this address was deep into the account, I recon it would be better to search through all of them.
I get a speed of around 4kP/s, with 14*195000000 possible seeds. It is time consuming, but given the amount of BTC on the address, its no biggy.

Just to make sure, I cannot possibly have created a segwit wallet by may 2018 in Mycelium??
