Most hardware wallets work like this and only show them to you once at initial setup.

So where on the process are you getting stuck?

@@CryptoGuide yes

@@CryptoGuide how can i recover this words or other apportunity

@@user-fg1wx3ee7k So what happened, did it complete and simply say that the seed was not found?

My fork of piTrezor with support for the waveshare display hat works fine. (Though the NFC reader won't do anything when running piTrezor)

@@CryptoGuide it was weird when I down loaded everything- Nothing was working giving me all sorts of reasons: power cut off, reader, different device, and then when it stated that it was already loaded but could not do anything error after error, etc. Then I realized (don’t know how) I have to uninstall an uninstalled applet???, and then I figured out if I installed the Satochip or Satodime applet 1st then the SEEDKEEPER will install successfully 😀. Might be faulty reasoning but that is what I had to do and then I could uninstall the Satodime/Satochip and all was perfect. Then this became 🤩. I ordered the Amazon DIY CARDS you left a review on. Satodime worked on my daughters iPhone 11 but for whatever reason it does not register on my iPhone 7… When it was loaded on her phone it stated not authentic ( I guess because it’s not from Satochip proper 🤷 but It still worked as it should - I don’t think I would ever use it but I wanted to see… AnywAy, thank you for the video - time flies I started and midnight and now 5:00am FTW 🙌🏻

The other coolest feeling after going through all this was when I went to sparrow and it so simply loaded and I couldn’t believe it. My daughter and I was like 👍🏻. - what a beautiful project we shared😊

Haha nice, yea NFC stuff is still a bit inconsistent with some older phones but it generally works well. (And some DIY cards can be a bit temperamental when first installing applets) Good job sorting it out.

You will need to make sure the partition is smaller than 32GB for windows to allow you to format it to fat32

@@CryptoGuide it worked, you're the best!

No worries :)

So where exactly did you get the address from that you sent the funds to? (Which wallet app, exchange or website)

If all you have is a wallet address than you have nothing. Your only hope is to find the mnemonic or a working copy of the wallet you originally used.

So what happens if you just start by copying/pasting the usage examples for basic Cardano seed recoveries? (From btcrecover.readthedocs.io)

Seedsigner only supports Bitcoin

Missing a word greatly increases the complexity to the point that it will take months, so depending on the wallet value, is may not be worth it. Missing an address is no problem if it's for a coin/chain where you can use an address database.

@@CryptoGuide yep,Yes, I am currently using the latest database file you shared, but due to a missing word and out of order, I don't know how to add those parameters. I have tested several times and have failed

@@CryptoGuide I wrote a script myself to generate 2048 mnemonic words (fill in the forgotten word) in a txt document, and then processed it in batches. However, the order seems to be out of order, and I am quite frustrated with how to attach parameters to achieve the desired effect

So are you saying that you know the correct position of some of the words?

@@CryptoGuide yep,I know the position. But don’t know how to use the seedrecover script‘s args correctly.

It doesn't support it

Do you have some idea what it should be?

Im try so many that i can think now , do you have the way to help me get the passphase 🙏

Around 3years ago i dont remember this thing

Basically if you have no idea your best bet is to use BTCRecover with other passwords you used around that time.

@@CryptoGuide that work for bnb ? Im watch your vid now start from 0

Your best bet is to use the Satochip tools utility here github.com/Toporin/Satochip-Utils It also includes the ability to perform a factory reset :)

Specifically you want the release that you can download here github.com/Toporin/Satochip-Utils/releases

@@CryptoGuide yes worked, reset satochip seedkeeper, thanks for the information

Good job sorting it out :)

The Eth chain has poor privacy, so it's normally straightforward to identify when funds are sent to an exchange.

@@CryptoGuide I see, thanks again.

No worries

How did you lose them?

@@CryptoGuide yesterday I was on my trust wallet app & I receive a link in my email address about winning free airdrops worth $600 I kinda knew it was a scam website, but I ignore my gut feeling interacted with the website once I connected they went into my trust wallet & stole over $2000 worth of tokens, I hope you can help me sir

​@@CryptoGuidehey sir, I'm not sure if you receive my original text to you, but how the scammers stole my crypto tokens yesterday I receive a message through my email address & it was a link saying I won $600 worth of airdrops tokens to link my account to my trust wallet I did connect with them, but my gut feeling told me not to do it, but I did anyway I lost a few thousands, can you help me recover my lost cryptos?

Unfortunately funds sent to a scammer are unrecoverable. I'm sorry for your loss.

@@CryptoGuide are you serious that's over $2000 I just lost, are you sure you can't help me? My head hurts even more, I thought you'd a solution

As long as you are not using one of the really new SLIP39 seed types (just launched last month) then seeds for Trezor and Ledger are totally interchangeable.

That's right, it was made for this video. (Like all my videos)

@@CryptoGuide Ok.

:)

No, if all you have is the wallet address then you have nothing. I'm sorry for your loss.

This depends entirely on what you mean by Coinbase. If you sent funds to the Coinbase wallet app where you have the private keys, it's a straightforward recovery. If you sent funds to the Coinbase exchange, then unfortunately since you sent the funds to a custodial wallet or exchange your only option is to contact their support and hope that they help you.

@@CryptoGuide i sent the crypto to an online address. it is a polymarket crypto usdc address where i sent my funds to. however that address only accepts usdc through polygon network. but i accidentally sent usdc to that address through a network called BASE because coinbase screwed me as that is the default network. it is my mistake that i did not check. do you think it is possible to recover my funds?

What does "online address" even mean? Do you have the private keys for the address?

@@CryptoGuide no private keys, it is like sending crypto to an address for your account to be credited. like those online poker/sports betting crypto sites where you just deposit in this address to receive your funds

You can set up Trezor suite to remember your Trezor and show you all the balances without the device connected. (Though it will still need to be connected to approve outbound transactions)

So for many words do you have and how many did you lose?

Don't spam multiple videos, one comment thread is enough

Does this have anything to do with Trezor or is this a BTCRecover related question?

No, if all you have is an address then unfortunately you have nothing.

And what is the question

@@CryptoGuide Hi, I'm trying to restore my Trezor safe 3 on my ledger s with the same seed is like cloning my Trezor but for some reason EI not working , both devices should be bip39 . Do you think ledger s the firmware doesn't work and only should work on ledger s+ , thank you.

When you say it's not working, what does this mean? Does it accept the seed and you are just having trouble seeing some of the funds? (If so, which coin/chain)

@@CryptoGuide the seed is accepted like should be is just l don't see any transactions or my funds and when I'm using my Trezor everything is fine the problem is just on my ledger , but I should be able to see in both devices because they're bip 39 so I'm concerned and confused 🤔 thank you for answering my questions so quickly.

So basically the seed is probably fine and the issue is that for some coins, Ledger and Trezor use different derivation paths. What are the coins/chains that you are trying to use on both devices?

If you only have an address, but no seed words, private keys, etc, the you have nothing and have unfortunately caused an unrecoverable loss.

You will need to either know the password or have a guess that is very close to correct

This video actually misses the most important point which is that the checksum for 24 words is much better. I'll probably redo it to include both this as well as SLIP39 type seeds as well.

@@CryptoGuide 128 bits is the MAXIMUM entropy of every single Bitcoin private key! Educate yourself... "ECDSA and Schnorr are themselves 128-bits secure." Adam Back, March 13th 2023 Period.

That's correct and it would be nice if it were that simple when it comes to seed length, but engineering doesn't work that way. For example, do you know what a checksum is and how strong it is for different seed lengths? (Or different schemes if you include SLIP39) Are you confident that data you selected on the input is actually 128bits of entropy? (If you used a TRNG it's probably fine, but if you used dice then maybe not)

@@CryptoGuide The checksum's length in a seed phrase has nothing to do with securing private keys. It's purely for integrity verification. The actual security lies in the seed's entropy, which is robust against brute force attacks. Claiming otherwise shows a lack of understanding of how cryptographic security works. Saying TRNGs are more reliable than dice rolls is flawed. Physical randomness from dice, when done right, can be more trustworthy than a potentially faulty TRNG.

Integrity of you backups is part of security of your overall setup, so I'm glad that you at least understand that such a thing exists. The issue with BIP39 is that the checksum strength is tied to the seed length, so 12 word seeds are extremely error prone. (Though this problem is resolved in SLIP39, so the 128 bit share groups are fine) Dice are better in an ideal world, but both compensation for the base conversation with dice and accounting for dice bias is basically an unknown, but if you do enough rolls for 24 words you have more than accounted for both and can be confident that you still have more than 128 bits of real entropy. There is no disagreement that 128 bit keys are cryptographically secure, but rather a question of what is best once all the factors for creation and use of a backup set are considered.

You can still use BIP39 with the Safe 5, so unless you plan to go to multi-share backups later, you can just leave it as-is.

It's probably fixable. Just follow my videos on BTCRecover

Not really. What wallet app are you using? Do you have any of your recovery seed words?

@@CryptoGuide Im using metamask. I remember the possible characters of my password, i just dont know the order.

So are you saying that you have all 12 of the words in the recovery seed, but the order is just scrambled?

@@CryptoGuide It might have been confusing what I said earlier, so I'll explain again. On my Android phone, I have Metamask, which is on the password entry screen. I remember the characters of the password, but I don’t know the order they should be in, so I wanted to use btcrecover. I wanted to know if there's any possibility of using it on Android, for example via Termux. I have some basic knowledge of Python

You still didn't clarify what exactly you are using in terms of wallet software, but it probably isn't recoverable without at least rooting the phone. (And doing so without triggering a wipe)

If you have zero words from your recovery phrase and don't have a working copy of your wallet, then unfortunately you have caused an unrecoverable loss.

@@CryptoGuide i created my ronin wallet with google account and now i only do is view-only in my ronin allet bcos i forgot the recovery password

Sounds like you have caused in unrecoverable loss. I'm sorry for your loss.

Do you mean that your private key is 51 characters long?

@@CryptoGuide yes sir

Then just follow the video

Because you are running BTCRecover from a folder on your PC, not mine. (So it's normal)

@@CryptoGuide sir, i have an interesting offer for you. in this wallet there are 3 btc, i will give you a private key that i try to fix. then you try to fix it, if it works i will give you 1 btc and the rest is for me. you don't have to worry about me not paying it, because all the control is on you

Basically you will need to import the private key like I demo here and make the transaction to Coinbase. When you make the transaction, you should see one output sending funds to Coinbase and a change output sending the remaining funds back to the paper wallet address. You need to be sure to check the change and there have been plenty of folk who will sweep a paper wallet, rather than importing it as a loose private key. (Which makes to easy to accidentally lose whatever change is left over)

Could you help me recover wallet? I don’t have money to pay you before recover. But you can recover have 50% of wallet ~ 150$

Sounds like you will just need to use the free support option here in the RUclips comments and run it yourself. What software/hardware did you use to generate the seed in the first place?

@@CryptoGuide I don’t remember which one I used as I found this seed in my old word file

@@CryptoGuide but its btc wallet as there are sats

Basically if it was Electrum, you will need to specify that wallet type, as opposed to BIP39.

No I haven't. That said, it's four of the same chip, so that isn't the same as something like a Coldcard which uses multiple secure elements from different vendors.

Yes it does. You can request private support or a trusted recovery here cryptoguide.tips/recovery-services-consultations/

It is odd but I don't see it as super unusual that a minor point release might be different between what is shipping compared to what is on their website.

Hidden wallet is BIP39 passphrase, so yes. The Q has calculator mode, but not the mk4, but it's really just a dumb meme... The have a very distinctive look and border folk are looking for crypto stuff, will spot it instantly...

The releases on my Github target the hardware used in the SeedSigner, so thats the ST7789, so in terms of official releases, they won't work with the ST7735S. That said, my fork of piTrezor makes use of the fbcp-ili9341 driver which can be found here: github.com/juj/fbcp-ili9341 which does support the display you are asking about. Basically you would just need to build piTrezor from source from my repository and edit this file: github.com/3rdIteration/yocto-pitrezor/blob/master/meta-pitrezor/recipes-graphics/fbcp-ili9341/fbcp-ili9341_git.bb so that it uses the ST7735S driver as opposed to the ST7789 driver for the display. (it's a one line change)

@@CryptoGuide I don't have the programming knowledge to be able to try to make this change.

Then your best bet is to just get the standard waveshare hat that the Seedsigner uses

@@CryptoGuide Can you indicate where this modification is?

I already give you exactly what to edit and what to change it to

It comes down to also the camera module, the ability to do the image processing that this requires and also needing more RAM to be able to do things like store and process the full transaction on-device, as opposed to having the connected PC handle some parts of this. (And maybe throwing a larger screen on there to make the camera usable too) In the simplest of terms, you can see this with a Jade, you can DIY one without the camera for $10 USD, but if you want to add a camera, the price basically doubles. (You can also take this further and have an even simpler smartcard based device like Satochip, no screen or buttons, that you can do for under $5 USD)

@@CryptoGuide Nice answer. Thanks.
