Reset password

Tue Apr 23, 2019 10:34 am

Does anyone know how to reset your Bitcoin password? I'm trying to buy Bitcoin Cash, but I can't remember my password 😖. I can't see a link to 'forgot password' either.

Thanks.

Is this a password like a PIN or other entry method to the wallet, or is it a password on a private key?

Is it a wallet at all? :) What do you mean by Bitcoin password? You can buy Bitcoin Cash and load it up somewhere without a password.

If what you want is a password associated with an existing wallet which already has coins in it, the password recovery process is more involved than a simple password reset (there is no such option, it doesn't make sense). You would have to export a password protected key and crack the hash with hashcat on very expensive hardware, and that depends on how much you can remember about the password.
