Sorry it's been almost 1 year since my last message, I sat down today again on the subject of Bitcoin.

In the meantime I have also looked at the tool lostWord again more closely it can validate good seeds and look which combinations are valid.

Success has not brought the whole of course but I have learned a lot. What I didn't understand yet is the path of the seed, e.g. m/0/0 is used by lostWord by default (P2PKH).

What exactly do these paths mean:
m/84'/0
m/44'/60
m/44'/0'
m/84'/0

So the question is which BIP fits to which path and which path did you use in the beginning?

What I understood is that the addresses are as follows:
P2PKH = 1xxxx addresses
P2WPKH = bc1xxxxx addresses
P2SH = 3xxxxx addresses

maybe you can help me a little bit in dealing with the m/0/0 etc..
