If you have a legacy wallet recovery mnemonic saved enter it below to view the password and login link.

Thanks for link got the password back

I would be surprised if OP had 100 bitcoins on it. Though the prices back in 2014 wasn't as low as it was in 2009ish days. So maybe you got a few mbtc or satoshis in them, maybe it's not worth it if it's just a few satoshis. How much do you remember your balance was in that account?

I'm not certain, but I think I recall that blockchain.info in the past used to supply a mnemonic that you could use to recover your password.

The modern 12 word mnemonic at blockchain.info is for a wallet seed.

If I'm right (and my memory of 2014 blockchain.info is pretty foggy, so I certainly may not be), then you'd need to find a copy of the algorithm they used back in 2014 for converting a password into a mnemonic, and then you'd might be able to access that wallet.

Well there's code on github but that's beyond me.  Ill try emailing blockchain.info.  Theres probably bugger all in there, but I need to know  Cheesy

I found an old notepad file on my pc from 2014.
it has "bitcoin nmemonic" and then 20 random words on the next line and what looks like a blockchain.info wallet id on the next.

So can I recover the wallet with this?  blockchain.info recovery only asks for 12 words though so Im confused.
