Hello guys, i want to ask to old people who follows bitcoin since the beginning or anyone which has a knowledge about.
What kind of desktop wallets re using in that time? What were the wallet names for windows? With the 12 mnemonic seeds

As this is board for Electrum - yes, long time ago there was something like that, Electrum 1, with their implementation of seed, 12 words, their dictionary. And their own method of calcution seed<->entropy and derivation path (addresses).

What is interesting, I did some tests in the past and it prooved that now every combination of words is "valid" - there is no checkum to say if seed is correct or not, but the way how they calculate seed excludes some combinations of words.
