Hello, I would like to ask how long it takes to someone to hack my wallet If he would know all my 24 words, but not their order.

I know that it would be counted like 24! and it is very less than 2048^24(<-- classic hacking without knowing any words).
Result of 24! is 6.204484e+23 .
Do you think there will be any machines and programs which would be able to try it in real time?

Thank you

It would take about 19 million years.

Even if you have the 24 words to guess from?

Still quite unfeasible:

Cryptography is really impressive.

This depends a little bit if all words are independent. If yes the will be 24! = 620.448.401.733.239.439.360.000 permutations of the words. Assuming that you computer can check 1 billion permutations per second (which is is way too optimistic as this would assume that a signature / public key could be computed within one clock cycle which he can't) this would mean that your computer still would need 620.448.401.733.239 seconds which is 19674289 (19.6 million) years as the absolut minor / lower bound. This estimation however does not take into account technological breakthroughs in computing hardware which could very well happen in that time frame (:

19 million years. I am impressed, because at first when I read the topic I thought it was possible.
