Please *DO NOT* DM me regarding ANYTHING. If you have anything fruitful to say, say it here in the public. Thanks.

Hello,

I found my seed phrase paper from 2014 (precise yes), but not anything else written with it.

I do not remember which website I had my X number of BTC were stored in.

However, here's when it becomes more complicated: I have SEVENTEEN (17) phrase words. Not the standard 12, 18 or 24.

From my understanding, this is what I have done by far to retrieve my account:

I tried to retrieve my credentials from Blockchain.

I put in my seed phrase.

It generated my password for my account back then.

Username is my old email address which still works (whoosh!).

I log into Blockchain, it worked.

BUT, it became *even* more complicated: I have no BTC/any crypto in my account at all!

Furthermore, when I checked my account, there are only TWELVE (12) phrase words this time instead of my old SEVENTEEN (17) which I actually used to retrieve the password and which actually provided my account password.

My bottom-line question, for which I need assistance and the purpose of creating this thread is this:

Are there any other websites from back then where I might purchased my BTC from
