Recover funds from non conventional passphrases
You have a non standard passphrase and your funds are locked? No problem!
The other day on the Lisk chat there was a user saying that he had a 15 words passphrase and Lisk Hub wouldn't allow to transfer the funds. We started to debug together and I built this tool for him.
This super simple tool allows you to transfer funds from a wallet, using any passphrase.
The script is nothing else than calling lisk-elements in order to sign the transaction and then broadcast it.
Getting started
You will need a file editor, a terminal and have installed NodeJS. That's all.
- Open your terminal
git clone https://github.com/nerdvibe/lisk-rescue.gitcd lisk-rescue- Now open the file generate.js and add your details to the fields
- Double check that the receiver address is correct.
npm installnode generate.js- Now copy the output (including the {}) into broadcast.js
- Triple check that the receiver is correct.
- execute broadcast.js by running
node broadcast.js
Recomendations: For the first attempt, try with a very low amount of LSK, e.g. 1 (which corresponds to 0.00000001 LSK)
