Re: I have a 12 word seed phrase that appears to be wrong (Ethereum)

Hello everyone...

Hopefully this is the right place to post something like this.

12 ETH was sent to a new Metamask wallet, and the seedphrase written down. We have all 12 words.

But when we try to restore the wallet, all associated addresses seem to be empty.


Does anyone know any software too partially crack Ethereum seed phrases? (Try combinations of similar words)

Are you the real owner of the 12Eth? Why would you want to crack the phrases this quickly when you can still try other methods? If phrases are that easy to guess, don't you think Ethereum will be at risk

As explained above, quite a few times now:
1. I have a 12 word seed. It appears to be wrong. I suspect there is only one word (the 3rd one) that is wrong.
2. This is a problem I am helping solve for a FRIEND

Updates:
I started a 'btcrecover' program to try bruteforce the broken words, but I have no idea how long it will take. (So far seems to be taking quite a while)
