As of right now, with my recovery efforts, ALL of my BCH is unreachable.. all due to the bitcoin.com wallet update on iOS. Through multiple avenues, I have still not been able to recover anything. I’m really bummed
I managed open my Bitcoin.com wallet using other wallets such as Electron Cash. If you want, I'd be glad to help if you have your seed phrase (don't share them).
I think I’m quitting for the night.. I downloaded electron cash but the only option I saw (quickly looking) was importing from a file.. not a seed phrase... I’m really upset..
Electron Cash uses files to save wallet settings. After specifying that file, you get to define hiw you want your wallet prepared, such as creating a new wallet or from a seed.
Also, by any chance, did you (ever) have more than 1 BCH wallet setup? Although using the same derivation path, each new wallet uses a different 'account' path.
Many people put a lot of effort in building what becomes https://iancoleman.io/bip39/ tool. It works just like a calculator. I do not condone calling it names such as a scam. (cont.)
1) I checked the code myself. 2) I checked the network traffic myself. 3) I also suggested an offline use to demonstrate nothing is sent back. Have you?
As I just said.. I was joking.. no offense to be taken... I was playing off of what the previous user had said.. I thought that was obvious. So again, no seriousness to that comment!
I did not. I’m at work right now. I’m going to check it out later when I get home. first, I’m going to give the Bitcoin.com desktop wallet another shot as that was Reccom again
Regarding Ian's site, it helps map out addresses without actually creating a wallet — clarifying the correct derivation path. But the legacy format asks for an extra /0 at the end.
To double check: 1) open https://iancoleman.io/bip39/ then go offline (opt.) 2) enter mnemonic phrases 3) choose BCH coin 4) choose BIP 32 tab 5) enter m/44'/0'/0'/0 (extra /0)
Check if the addresses listed here matches the one in Electron Cash on iOS. If they are the same, then you did your Electron Cash setup correctly and we'd have to look deeper.
electron cash uses seed phrase. If you have your seed, your funds are safu. Create a new name for your wallet file, click next, Standard wallet (if it was), next, I already have a seed
