As I type in the same seed in Elcertum wallet & check the BIP39 box & following type the
derivation path m/44'/0'/0' I get different addresses that I have used, after I updated the
E_Tails (I see transactions on this addresses), opposed to if I just type in the seed without
derivation path (there I see only 1 transaction on 1 address).
Here is the catch:
If I check the BIP39 box and type in any derivation path (I tried planty of them) then Elcetrum
tells me "checksum failed" & once I go ahead and am already in the wallet: go wallet > seed
I can't display the seed.
Where as if I just type in the seed without derivation path, I am able displaying the seed.
The point is - I need the correct derivation path - at least it is what I assume.
Q: How to get the correct derivation path for the 2 addresses where the funds are at?
I believe the issue is here.
What are the first 3 characters of the bitcoin address you want to recover? You are only searching for addresses that begin with 1.
There are 3 address formats in bitcoin network, and each has a different derivation path.
m/44' legacy addresses (begin with 1)
m/49' Segwit (P2SH) addresses (begin with 3)
m/84' Native Segwit (bech32) addresses (begin with bc1)
You should try 49 a 84 paths, your coins are probably there.
