Build your handoff packet

This assembles everything your helper needs into one block — after a final safety check. If any part looks like a secret, it won't build the packet. All in your browser; nothing is uploaded.

What makes a good hint

The strongest hints are personal — not dictionary words. Automated recovery already tries millions of common words with every number and symbol; what usually unlocks a wallet is something that meant something to you.

Think back to around when you set up the wallet:

  • Names of people close to you then — a partner, family, or children (and their birth years).
  • Pets, including old or childhood ones.
  • Places — a street, neighbourhood, or town you lived in.
  • Nicknames, terms of endearment, or inside jokes.
  • Bands, artists, teams, or hobbies you were into then.
  • Other passwords you reused around that time — even similar-looking ones.

About the numbers and symbols

  • A number usually means something — a birth year, an anniversary, a lucky number. Say which if you can.
  • Where does the number sit — at the end (word2016!), in the middle (name84surname), or the start?
  • Capitalisation — first letter capital, ALL CAPS, or none?

Even a fragment helps — "it began with my dog's name" or "a two-digit number, but not 01".
