Hello.
I have been trying to recover my wallet with about 180BTC almost for one year.
I was ”clever” enough to create a wallet with SHA256 custom string entry, and didn’t bother saving neither SHA256 result of it nor the private key WIF. I had it for years on my computer. But the computer crashed and I am now unable to remember what the string entry was. However, I know what keys I used but cannot remember the pattern.

I generate hashes from various patterns, as described above, and enter the hash results into https://www.bitaddress.org/ under “Wallet Address” and then try to import the private WIF into a new wallet. However it is a very slow process. Is there any tool/website that can create multiple private WIF keys from numerous hash entries?

Please, refrain yourself from sending me private messages in order to "help" me, reply only here in the public thread. Thanks.

Hi i wrote my custom program with CUDA capable of 100Millions guess by second on sha256 brainwallet with a RTX3070.
The program is easy customisable  because he read what is send by a string generator to the stdin entry with the following form.

./string_generator | ./my_program hash160_of_target_address

If you can well define a pattern of your passphrase i can help you.
