Bought 1 btc on december 18th. Not being able to touch it since then.
First I thought it was an Electrum issue but with help from within other topic I think it has to do with blockchain.info (now: blockchain.com).

Their keyword in replies is: "unable". They do not want to dive in and they reply very slow, if they do.

What I have:

I think that came from Blockchain.info, what you think?

And a 17 word phrase. I am not sure if they match.
The first word matches this list: https://github.com/blockchain/unused-My-Wallet/blob/master/mnemonic.js#L319 but the other 16 do not

Further: some json files and some idea's of wallet ID's. Not sure of everything.

Tried a lot of things:
- btcrecover
- https://login.blockchain.com/beta/legacy-pages/forgot-password.html
The 4rth word (colorfully) and the 5th word (bans) show an error here. Many words do not match the BIP39 (back in 2013, that list did not exist I was told).
- electrum different installs (older don't run) later 4.x let me import the phrase but never gives error (also no error with wrong words) and assets are 0.

Does anybody have the solution for me. For sure I will honor that when I digged up this treasure! :-)

Eric.
