Hi guys anyone known why I can’t register on nova or tradesatoshi Nova has no register button and Satoshi has a register button but brings me to login page. Thanks

Nova was sold a while back and they told all users to move their coins off exchange,  not sure they want new users at the moment as trading is halted.

unsure on tradesatoshi,  may be scaling issues like most other exchanges at the moment

BRUTE FORCE PASSPHRASE RECOVERY?? COLX wallet.dat

Feeling pretty silly right now..  I've had a 'copy/paste' issue with the pass phrase which I've encrypted my COLX wallet with,  I think rather than the actual passphrase I've probably pasted a file system path as the phrase instead.

I need to figure out a way I can try and make brute force attempts to unlock the wallet to recover the coins.

Is anyone is able to suggest an approach for doing this?  or point me in the direction of a tutorial or something?  

I have tried to research this,  and I've found a few references to brute forcing qt wallets - but I'm unsure of the specifics of these and whether I can simply use that approach for the colx wallet.. any guidance would be most appreciated..

Did you check the backup folder for a wallet before you enabled encryption.

I've done that just now and there appears to be a wallet.dat from before the wallet was encrypted (I'm also quite sure I created a backup before encrypting in case of something like this happening), however when I replace the file with either of these backups and open it it's still showing as encrypted.

- is there a recovery process I need to follow?  
- I'm assuming all the encryption data is contained within the .dat file itself?
