A video that runs through a bug that exists which prevents some older (Pre 2015 era) blockchain.com (previously blockchain.info) wallets from working, even if you have the correct password. (Throws an incorrect password error)

If you are new to Crypto, my suggestion is that you start with buying ~$150 worth of Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin @ Coinbase and get familiar with storing it, moving it around, etc.
For your first purcahse, just stick with CoinBase:
For Trading, just start with Binance:
By sticking with large, reputable exchanges for your first purchase (Coinbase) and first trade (Binance) you can avoid getting scammed right at the start by purchasing a non-existing coin off a scammy exchange. (You would be surprised how many people fall into this trap)
Don’t have a hardware wallet?
Be safe and buy them direct from the manufacturer. (Not just through some random on eBay, Amazon, etc)
Get a Ledger:
(If you are just starting out, I would just recommend a Ledger Nano S)

HOW TO RECOVER MY ACCOUNT
My password will not work. My wallet is from 2015. Can you help me please.
I am getting an error – it says successfully dumped for my old Schildbach wallet, but then no documentation or text files are created. It says it is unable to do a full dump and can only do private keys which is okay with me – but When I test it with the example wallets provided, it works fine and creates the documents needed.
i have an entire bitcoin lost to this issue! help! what do I dooooo!
Positions 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 8, 10, 11 I have complete words,
Position 3 is completely forgotten,
Position 6 Remember only the words that start with C
Position 9 Remember only words that start with S
Position 12 is completely forgotten.
What command will I use to execute it?

i recently reinstalled my OS and reinstalled chrome, then reinstalled UNISAT extention on chrome and tried to get to my wallet with recovery pharse wich is 12 words and password, but it gets me to a different wallet, not my wallet adress, my wallet adress is there and it has my bitcoins as well, but i cant access it, what can i do?

Sir, help me please to withdraw my USDT TRC20, I have no knowledge of this, Please help me
Can you help me out directly? I didn’t save my 12 phrases and I tried all my passwords and none of it worked. It is close to 1 year. And the password I used is something I often use. I just found your channel now.
So basically I’m learning about the blockchain and this video pops up… I have a lost fund issue.. simply because I have lost my email password,which I used to register my wallet.. is the btcrecover helpful? Can it help generate 12 word phrase or private key for same wallet because I have the wallet ID? God bless you… I hit the subscribe button
Hello. Is there a btcrecover tool that will allow me to "download-blockchain-wallet" for a legacy account affected by the 'bug?' The download-blockchain-wallet,py script does not return any results when searching for my "Wallet ID." While I have my Wallet ID and correct password, I do not have my wallet file nor mnemonic phrase.
Do I understand correctly: I can run BTCRecover even on wallet file with the bug, and BTCRecover still spits out the correct password?
Please i need help, i can't login to my wallet on both phone/PC each time i try it say PAIRING FAILED TRY AGAIN.
Tried recovering my blockchain wallet with the correct password and 12 phrase but it keeps saying " Restoring Account Failed " please what do I do
Hello I sent my GMT for mistake using BEP20 on my bittrex wallet ERC 20, and they don't give me support for refund my coin, can you help me?
If we run this code its giving us the same code we are seeing in the test. I am trying to find reference on how to actually use the code. Where does the wallet and pass information go? This is sort of helpful but there is a missing piece here. Anyone? links? This is frustrating as its presented as JUST DO THIS. But there is a missing element here that has burned a lot of time. I would be more appreciative of a straight $100 pitch to help.
Once I recovered with my keys, all of the sudden it’s my account is trying to verify my identity. My account won’t let me buy or sell crypto and I’m not sure what to do. It’s been like this for a week.
