What should i do if i have 34 words but i only use 24 and they need to be in the right order. I have 6 words guaranteed correct and in the right order so that takes away 6 but then i still have the rest to get in the right order. I am pretty sure too that this will take 30 million years so im hoping someone has a faster way.

  • It would take much longer than "months" even if there were pre-built tools available for your specific scenario. Probably centuries will not be enough. – HansBKK Mar 22 '22 at 01:45

im hoping someone has a faster way.

There's no way to reduce the number of permutations of 18 words chosen from 28 (thare are around 84019054401376174080000 of them).

I believe there are tools that can automatically check word permutations for seed-phrases if you have sufficient other data. I would look at btcrecover and similar tools.

Even so, I suspect you may be better off trying to work out what system (of obfuscation?) was used to prepare the list of 34 words.

  • Yes i know there is know what to lower the permutations but i meant to say is thera a way to calculate them faster? I have already tried btc recover but it would take a month the do everything needed to get the right seed. And btc recover does not support more than 24 words in the seed. – Grant Mar 21 '22 at 14:20
  • Thank you. I will probably just give up – Grant Mar 22 '22 at 12:24
