Topic: Seed Phrase BIP 44 Ledger Nano S 24 Words and one Word are away . (Read 2404 times)
August 08, 2017, 02:49:02 AM
Just so everyone knows... I have already successfully recovered the seed for the OP and helped them retrieve their coins. 
It would appear that the reason for the OP missing a seed word was likely due to the fact that the same word appeared twice in a row in the seed. ie. "one two three four five six seven seven eight nine ten eleven"
So, my theory is that the OP just thought they hadn't clicked "next" to display the next word properly... not realising that the Nano S was simply displaying the same word a second time... and then they didn't realise they had only written down 23 words instead of 24.
But, at the of the day, a happy result

I don't think that there is any easy solution for this, other than to contact the Ledger Wallet guys and see whether they can help. If that doesn't work, then you can try the Services section here and hire someone who can hack the wallet. But I have to warn you that the hacking services doesn't come cheap. It is going to cost you anywhere from $100 to $500.

Has another one an idea?
I have 23 correct words and one is missing. Number 12 is "lost" or Misssing
Wallet address is also available .
There must be something to be done
Is not much BTC. But for the little daughter. But she does not know
Should later become a surprise with 18

If you have a bitcoin address (preferably the first one generated) for that seed... a simple python script would probably find the correct seed in less time that it took to write your post.
PM me if you like...
you have PM PM me if you like...

The word list has only 2048 possible words to try.
Simply try them all in order.
If it takes you 30 seconds for each attempt, you can try all 2048 words in less than 18 hours.
Assuming that you are using English words, I think this is the word list you need to use:

Does something happen when you enter wrong seed? If no, you can find that word with a brute force attack. It will take maximum 1 day to find it (if your system isn't really bad).
nothing happens . i have enter 6-7 wrong seed .i can more and more anno 2039
I have never done that > brute force attack ! Never busy.sorry
i have a normal laptop i5 x73s asus with SSD and 8 GB ram
