Hello, I have a short request for help.
I have 7 words. the last 5 of the mnemonic words of a bitcoin address are missing. but there is no need to do 2048 attempts for the last 5. because the lengths are known. the initials of some of them are known.
I couldn't doa it with seedlist. Also I think seedrecovery only checks compressed addresses.... We don't know which one this address is. Maybe uncompressed

@Gameligo It seems like you're trying to recover the last 5 missing words of a Bitcoin mnemonic seed phrase. Since you have some initial letters and the lengths of the missing words?

yes i have lengths of the missing words...

@Gameligo Please be aware that user "Darrenpeaker" is newly registered, and the domain they referred you to is also newly registered. Do not share your (even partial) mnemonic with anyone or any service that asks for it—it's a sure way to lose your funds.

I know idiots like this very well. Thank you for the warning. Congratulations for your project. I am trying this with SeedRecovery.py. We don't know if the address is compressed or uncompressed. Does SeedRecovery.py check that words are compressed or uncompressed... A short answer should be enough. Thank you.

Hi @Gameligo

Don't complicate things, just run a quick bruteforce over the remaining 5 words, that will save you a lot of time and efforts.
This shouldn't take long.

Regards
