Step 1. You will need your wallet ID.
If you forget your password but know what email created your wallet, you are able to request an email. They will send you all wallets ever created with that mail. The link for that service is:
NEW 2024 UPDATE
Step 2. Get a backup of your wallet from blockchain.com server — THIS NO LONGER WORKS.
Instead you need to use web developer tools. When entering a password and the 2fa, enter ANY password.
You will be greeted with with a “Password is wrong” message.
Now head to the web developer tools, open the network tag.
Choose the wallet call, and on the right click on RESPONSE
Mark the data and save it to a file called wallet.aes.json
Now go inside and for every /” in the string, remove the /
With this file, it is possible to bruteforce the password.
In order to do this, you will need to install a bunch of python libraries and be a bit familiar with the command prompt. Its not a GUI.
If you have a wallet.aes.json backup and do not remember the wallet ID, it is possible to import the wallet into a new blockchain.com wallet.
The following link is to import the wallet.aes.json into a new wallet.
Step 3. Extract a hash of the wallet file
You would be able to brute force the password if you have a GPU rig (an NVIDIA or AMD video card) which is able to try thousands of different passwords per second.
Aside from owning a GPU card, you could use a software like hashcat to run the password cracking for you.
Hashcat could be downloaded from
If you are not able to find any password you could use a bunch of different word lists. You can download many different word lists from here:
Make sure you have plenty of space and bandwith. Many of these word lists are 10–30 GB.
