If it does not open the wallet you need and were your funds are, it seems to be useless/wrong Roll Eyes

Just curious, can you even have 2 of the same words in a row in a seed? Huh

I'd brute-force it, depending on how many XMR were in it. Google is your best friend. Wink

I can't recover my original wallet. I set up my original wallet through the Monero GUI app where I sent my Monero. I copied all of the mnemonic seed (25 words with the 25th word being a repeat, the restore height name, etc.

I am working with someone of Reddit for the last week and have tried just about everything. The only thing I am managing to do is keep creating new wallets.

When I restore from seed it will not allow me to add the 25 words. If I put all 25 in and go through the process, it tells me "electrum-style word list failed." I then go back and take out the 25th repeated word and it will go through. But all it does is create a new wallet on my desktop with a $0 balance.

I have also tried going back on the restore height and also back date to the day before all with no luck. I still have the original transaction information from when it was completed through Binance. I just can't find the Monero anywhere.

I figured while getting help on Reddit, I would try here also. Thanks!

P.s. I do not ever remember the Monero balance showing in the wallet when I created it. I think the GUI closed and I opened it back up but there was zero balance. Binance accepted the Monero address and said it was completed.

Ok, that does not make sense in two ways.

1. Can you post or check by yourself the transaction on, if it is confirmed --> https://xmrchain.net/
2. Can you verify the address where you sent your Moneroj to from your binance account
3. Have you tried by entering the seed word by word by yourself, hence copy&paste can also produce unwanted sings and/or strings which then malform the seed which by it's nature will not be accepted
4. Restoring from a block height a week before your initial transaction will not hurt you that much
5. Please make sure you are using the latest version of Monero from the official download page with version 0.17.1.9 --> https://www.getmonero.org/downloads/

Thank you very much for the reply. On the Binance website it does indeed say it is confirmed.

1. Here is the hash: 8f321a621ee035d08f6fdaf8cf0626f74460a9eef5a58dafdfb855a79975f186

2. I have the address that Binance sent it to, but I cannot recreate that address in any wallet that I have. I am not sure what I did when I set up the original GUI. I do have one original "keys" file that I try to restore from backup, but it keeps telling me my password is incorrect. Also, it will not allow me to end the 25 word seed when trying to restore from seed (one word repeated). I have to delete one word, but it is still not the correct address that opens. It creates a new wallet.

3. I hand typed each word for word 8000 times already...(sarcasm), but I am probably close to that.

4. My block height was 2249000. I took it back to 2101234, and then also tried by date 24 hours before

5. I just downloaded the app on January 7th, and then did the new update.

I am having no luck finding the original address it was sent to. All I am doing is creating new wallet folders on my desktop at this point.

2. I have the address that Binance sent it to, but I cannot recreate that address in any wallet that I have. I am not sure what I did when I set up the original GUI. I do have one original "keys" file that I try to restore from backup, but it keeps telling me my password is incorrect. --> Ok, if you have a *.keys file that is better and faster than the 25 word seed file, but without the correct password to the *.keys file that is nearly useless
Also, it will not allow me to end the 25 word seed when trying to restore from seed (one word repeated). I have to delete one word, but it is still not the correct address that opens. It creates a new wallet. --> Ok, it opens a new wallet, so that is an indication that your wallet seed is not the correct one from the originating wallet. From a seed it always recreates the correct wallet, just tried that with a mobile wallet on my desktop

3. I hand typed each word for word 8000 times already...(sarcasm), but I am probably close to that. --> Ok

4. My block height was 2249000. I took it back to 2101234, and then also tried by date 24 hours before --> Ok

5. I just downloaded the app on January 7th, and then did the new update. --> Ok

In my opinion you are mixing your seed from another wallet, could be even from another currency with the one you want to restore. Best chance you have is to restore your wallet from the *.keys file with the correct password to the *.keys file

I figured the .keys was probably the best route, but it keeps telling me incorrect password. What a mess-up on my part...I copied the seed word for word, the restore height, and password the second I created the file. Who knows, maybe I missed a letter/number/character when copying the password. What a learning lesson. I am going to guess it is just lost at this point if there is no way for Binance reverse the transaction. That was a semi-expensive learning lesson. Could have been much worse.

Thank you for the help!

What you can do, is to bruteforce your *.keys file. In my opinion that´s the only way if you do not have the correct password for it Roll Eyes

Bruteforce the password sounds like something way too advanced for me. Is there no other way to do it since I have the 25 words? I just can't get it to take the 25 words. It will open with 24 words though.

Did you by any chance get the idea while writing down the seed to swap a couple of words around, and forgot about it?

No, the 25 words are definitely correct. It is weird that it is not allowing me to restore from the seed with 25 words, but when I delete the last word it will open up a wallet. I get the error code when I put the 25 word mnemonic seed. And the 25th word is a repeat.

3. I hand typed each word for word 8000 times already...(sarcasm), but I am probably close to that.

4. My block height was 2249000. I took it back to 2101234, and then also tried by date 24 hours before

5. I just downloaded the app on January 7th, and then did the new update.

I am having no luck finding the original address it was sent to. All I am doing is creating new wallet folders on my desktop at this point.

1. Here is the hash: 8f321a621ee035d08f6fdaf8cf0626f74460a9eef5a58dafdfb855a79975f186 --> OK, you have 3646 confiramtions that´s good

2. I have the address that Binance sent it to, but I cannot recreate that address in any wallet that I have. I am not sure what I did when I set up the original GUI. I do have one original "keys" file that I try to restore from backup, but it keeps telling me my password is incorrect. --> Ok, if you have a *.keys file that is better and faster than the 25 word seed file, but without the correct password to the *.keys file that is nearly useless
Also, it will not allow me to end the 25 word seed when trying to restore from seed (one word repeated). I have to delete one word, but it is still not the correct address that opens. It creates a new wallet. --> Ok, it opens a new wallet, so that is an indication that your wallet seed is not the correct one from the originating wallet. From a seed it always recreates the correct wallet, just tried that with a mobile wallet on my desktop

3. I hand typed each word for word 8000 times already...(sarcasm), but I am probably close to that. --> Ok

4. My block height was 2249000. I took it back to 2101234, and then also tried by date 24 hours before --> Ok

5. I just downloaded the app on January 7th, and then did the new update. --> Ok

In my opinion you are mixing your seed from another wallet, could be even from another currency with the one you want to restore. Best chance you have is to restore your wallet from the *.keys file with the correct password to the *.keys file

You didn't use MyMonero with this address in the past did you?

I am not even sure what MyMonero is. I downloaded this for the Mac version: https://www.getmonero.org/downloads/

I then did the "bootstrap" mode when I initially set it up. Thanks!

I can't recover my original wallet. I set up my original wallet through the Monero GUI app where I sent my Monero. I copied all of the mnemonic seed (25 words with the 25th word being a repeat, the restore height name, etc.

I am working with someone of Reddit for the last week and have tried just about everything. The only thing I am managing to do is keep creating new wallets.

When I restore from seed it will not allow me to add the 25 words. If I put all 25 in and go through the process, it tells me "electrum-style word list failed." I then go back and take out the 25th repeated word and it will go through. But all it does is create a new wallet on my desktop with a $0 balance.

I have also tried going back on the restore height and also back date to the day before all with no luck. I still have the original transaction information from when it was completed through Binance. I just can't find the Monero anywhere.

I figured while getting help on Reddit, I would try here also. Thanks!

P.s. I do not ever remember the Monero balance showing in the wallet when I created it. I think the GUI closed and I opened it back up but there was zero balance. Binance accepted the Monero address and said it was completed.

Ok, that does not make sense in two ways.

1. Can you post or check by yourself the transaction on, if it is confirmed --> https://xmrchain.net/
2. Can you verify the address where you sent your Moneroj to from your binance account
3. Have you tried by entering the seed word by word by yourself, hence copy&paste can also produce unwanted sings and/or strings which then malform the seed which by it's nature will not be accepted
4. Restoring from a block height a week before your initial transaction will not hurt you that much
5. Please make sure you are using the latest version of Monero from the official download page with version 0.17.1.9 --> https://www.getmonero.org/downloads/

Greetings

Thank you very much for the reply. On the Binance website it does indeed say it is confirmed.

Hello all, for some reason i can't get my wallet connected to the network. I've already opened the correct port on my router and firewall. 2 days of downloading the blockchain and then it just lost connection. running on a iMac. any help would be great.

Which version of Monero are you using. Please be advised, that 0.17.1.8 is the latest, only download it from the official source https://www.getmonero.org/downloads/

that's what I'm running and that's where i got the download from

Are you still losing connection or are you connected by now. If not, you can add a specific remote node https://www.getmonero.org/resources/user-guides/remote_node_gui.html

still can't connect and couldn't get connected to a remote node either

Well then it seems that you have to check your firewall settings. Have you tried to connect with no firewall settings at all?

I have tried with the firewall turned off and that didn’t work either. I’m really not sure what’s going on at this point.

Ok, but you can reach the rest of the internet? Are you working on GUI or on CLI? Do you have networkwise any possibility to check wheter you can reach a remote node?

Yes I have no problem connecting to the rest of the internet on this computer. I am using the GUI version. I’m not sure how to do connect to a remote node outside of the program. When I tried to connect to any remote node inside of the program that didn’t work.

Have you tried with the latest version 0.17.1.9

I have updated to 0.17.1.9. I have tried with fire wall on and off. I have double and triple check the ports on my router, and double checked my modem to make sure i don't need to open ports on it and i don't need to or don't have the option to. Currently I have my fire wall turned off and have had one time where i was able to connect to a remote node and got half way synced up and then suddenly lost connection. then was able to start it as a full node and had two peers and was syncing for about 4 hours and lost connection and now nothing again.

I honestly think that this is your internet connection or your ISP is blocking the transmission of the data. Do you have all your antivirus programs turned off or configured in a way to let the monerod dameon run? Do you have a possibility to run via a vpn service? ican recommend protonvpn based in Switzerland --> https://protonvpn.com/
You can use a service free of charge for testing

ntroducing Wrapped Monero Token $XMR

https://blog.btse.com/introducing-wrapped-monero/

"Wrapped Monero, brings XMR to the Ethereum network with all the flexibility of an ERC-20 token. Wrapped Monero (WXMR) is backed 1:1 by Monero and secured by BTSE.

Wrapped Monero brings greater liquidity to the Ethereum and DeFi ecosystem. It gives holders of Monero more flexibility to utilize their tokens without having to sell it for Ethereum or stablecoins, in order to access the many exciting opportunities in the DeFi space."

How do you rate this news? Is coloboration with Defi useful for monero?

what is the point? why are all these projects making their Wrapped version on ethereum and putting extra load of burden on ethereum blockchain? why would we need a Wrapped monero at all? it changes nothing but increase ethereum Gas fee and transaction problems.

Quote from: centinela74 on January 09, 2021, 10:39:31 AM

My question is if wrapped Monero transactions are traceable. If they are, I'm not interested in.

the transactions will be on ethereum blockchain. so yeah they are traceable through any ethereum blockchain exploror. I am not interested either.

Real question shoud be are Monero transactions traceable because ciphertrace as filed 2 patents and are claiming that they have cracked the monero privacy.

Oh no, not that nonsense again. Embarrassed

The patents were not approved.
The topic has been discussed for months now. Angry

The only way to really track Monero, is to hire a developer which is infiltrating the dev community and publishing code to recalculate the transactions Wink

I think that Monero, as the most popular anonymous coin, should open its own decentralized exchange!
(The source code of such projects is available on the net)

Collect all anonymous coins on this exchange, so Monero will become the most popular and central anonymous coin and, together with other projects, will protect anonymity.

Or is Monero team afraid of other altcoins?

The problem is, someone has to do it. Wink

Tor Hidden-Service P2P DEX Bisq is running very well. Roll Eyes

When Bitcoin<=>Monero atomic swap is ready it will be integrated.
Most of the coins have unfortunately been removed due to insufficient demand or inactivity. Anyone can list an asset for a few BSQ. Maybe XZC will come again. When the Lelantus privacy protocol is up next week.
Monero is the most traded on Bisq.
