- In btcrecover, it's correct to say the address limit is 1, right?
- Is there a way to tell btcrecover the address format to speed it up and not check every format?
The "
address limit" tell btcrecover how many 'address_indexes' to derive (
address_index starts at '0'),
so if you're not certain of your address' index, better leave it with higher or default value.
But if you're certain that it's the very first address that you've derived (
not received funds), then '1' is enough.
You'll be providing it with your address with
--addrs so why do you have to provide the format?
Anyways,
--skip-uncompressed can be added to skip searching for such addresses which Ledger doesn't support.
Basically, the command will look like this:
btcrecover --addrs bc1address --bip39 --skip-uncompressed
You should have a token file named "
btcrecover-tokens-auto.txt" containing your token files or point to it with
--tokenlist(
just add the necessary command line options depending on your needs)
