So there are 12 words chosen from thousands to recover any wallet.

If you iterate through random word combinations you will eventually generate a wallet that exists, correct?

I know the number of combinations is astronomical. But in theory if you keep generating random phrases, you might eventually stumble upon a wallet holding millions?


It is practically impossible to assemble the same passphrase of a particular wallet, even if you are a wizard you can't assemble 12 words correctly, if that is possible thousands of wallets will be hacked on daily basis.
