The reward was increased to 0.5 BTC (~30k USD) In 2013, someone created a Bitcoin Core wallet and encrypted it without giving it much thought. blockchain.com/explorer/addr… Over the course of that year, he made DCA. When they eventually wanted to cash out, they had completely forgotten that they had even encrypted it in the first place. As part of an early recovery attempt, they filled out the form shown in the attached image with some password patterns that he uses in other sites. (check image) Today, the owner believes the password may contain the word "wallet" or "billetera" (Spanish for "wallet"), or mix of multiple words. His name is Guillermo Ariel Ramirez, and he was born on November 21, 1969. For anyone who wants to test password candidates manually, there is an offline page available: mrbianchi.github.io/decrypte… For those who prefer brute force or dictionary attacks with Hashcat, here is the wallet hash: $bitcoin$96$1bbd24dc0f23175483d619a24e15f4a06e7e1d3d8b13d9a979b7f4223792836f50520c27c698fa9468ff95f481b888f0$16$65e1017f33467568$63533$2$00$2$00 I made dozens of crypto wallets recoveries since almost 10 years in the one of the most popular and pioneers Bitcoin communities in spanish.

The whole of hashcat is one line: hashcat -m <mode> -a <attack> <hashes> <wordlist-or-mask> Get the two numbers right and the tool stops being scary.

Point hashcat at an NTLM hash with the MD5 mode and it'll run, report progress, and crack nothing. Wrong function. Identifying the hash is the step people skip.

Set hash file, wordlist and format once at the top; every command updates. Extractor table covers ZIP/RAR/PDF/Office/7z/KeePass/SSH/GPG, mapped to hashcat modes.

All verified on hashcat 7.1.2, including the zsh gotcha: quote your masks or the shell globs the ? and aborts.

Nobody actually memorises hashcat mode numbers. So I built an interactive cheat sheet that does it for you.

The rule I use: hashcat for raw hashes and Wi-Fi, John for any encrypted file. Keep both.

People think John the Ripper is obsolete now that hashcat owns the GPU. One feature says otherwise.

This is how you get temporarily muted for a week on the #hashcat discord. The broader lesson is don’t join random discords and ask to be a mod after a week, it never goes well. Haven’t y’all learned IRC OP etiquette

Any domain user can request a service ticket. That ticket is encrypted with the service account's hash. Hashcat does the rest. #infosec #kerberoast

Hashcat sigue siendo una de las herramientas más conocidas para auditoría y recuperación de contraseñas 👾 Les dejé una guía rápida con comandos, modos de ataque y configuraciones básicas para entender mejor cómo funciona 🚀 De esas imágenes que terminas guardando “por si acaso” 😎 #Hashcat #CyberSecurity #InfoSec #Linux #KaliLinux #EthicalHacking #CyberSec #Tech #Programacion #RedTeam

Fired up Hashcat and jwt_tool for offline dictionary attacks against an HS256 signature using the rockyou.txt wordlist. Ran into a few syntax hurdles with token hyphens misfiring as terminal arguments, but forcing proper string quotes fixed the parser right up.

Spent the weekend deep into terminal auditing cryptographic structures and cracking JWT tokens. 🛠️💀 What took my time: 🔹 Decoding Base64, Caesar, Vigenère, & Monoalphabetic ciphers. 🔹 Analyzing JWT flaws. 🔹 Cracking legacy secrets. #Cybersecurity #Hashcat #JWT #EthicalHacking
