How to Restore Your Electrum Wallet Using Hashcat

1. Prepare Your Environment:
   • Install Hashcat on your computer. You can download it from the official Hashcat website and follow the installation instructions for your operating system.
   • Ensure you have the required dependencies, such as OpenCL or CUDA drivers, for GPU acceleration if applicable.
2. Obtain Wallet Files:
   • Locate the Electrum wallet files you need to restore. Specifically, you'll need your wallet’s backup file or the wallet’s seed phrase file.
3. Extract Hashes from Wallet File:
   • Electrum wallet backups typically use the wallet file format. To extract hash data from your wallet file, you might need to use a script or tool to convert it into a format that Hashcat can work with. A common tool for this is electrum2hashcat.
   • Example command to use electrum2hashcat (assuming you have it installed):

   python electrum2hashcat.py -i wallet_file -o hash_file

4. Prepare Hashcat for Cracking:
   • Hashcat requires a specific format for input hashes. Ensure the hash_file is in the correct format for Hashcat, usually a plain text file with hashes.
5. Select Appropriate Hashcat Mode:
   • Electrum wallet passwords are usually protected with the SHA-256 hash algorithm. Identify the mode Hashcat should use to crack these hashes. For SHA-256, Hashcat mode 1400 is commonly used.
6. Run Hashcat:
   • Execute Hashcat with the appropriate parameters to start cracking the password. Here's an example command:

   hashcat -m 1400 -a 0 hash_file wordlist.txt

   • -m 1400 specifies the SHA-256 hash mode.
   • -a 0 specifies a dictionary attack mode.
   • hash_file is the file containing the hashes.
   • wordlist.txt is a file containing potential passwords or passphrases.
7. Monitor and Analyze Results:
   • Hashcat will begin processing and attempting to crack the password. Monitor the progress through the console output. Once completed, check the output file or console for the cracked password.
8. Restore Your Wallet:
   • Use the recovered password to decrypt and access your Electrum wallet. Open Electrum and use the password to restore your wallet file or seed phrase as needed.

Note: This process assumes you have basic knowledge of using command-line tools and understanding hash cracking concepts. Always ensure you use these tools responsibly and ethically.
