The project for hacking your crypto wallet

TreasureHunter

A project for hacking crypto wallets protected with naive mnemonics.

See https://www.badykov.com/common/hack/

Description

For each blockchain, it does the following:

1. Generates 10_240 master keys from naive mnemonics
2. Derives a fixed number of private keys from the master keys
3. For each generated child key, it generates some addresses according to BIP-32 and BIP44
4. Each generated address is checked against a block explorer. Since block explorer APIs are not consistent across all blockchains, the project implements API wrappers for each of them
5. If the address is found in a block explorer, it means we succeeded and found a mnemonic that can unlock it

For steps 1 - 3 my crypto wallet library "Cryptopunk" is used, it contains the required logic for generating different types of addresses from public keys.

Installation

If available in Hex, the package can be installed by adding treasure_hunter to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:

def deps do
  [
    {:treasure_hunter, "~> 0.1.0"}
  ]
end

Documentation can be generated with ExDoc and published on HexDocs. Once published, the docs can be found at https://hexdocs.pm/treasure_hunter.

Queries

Found mnemonics

SELECT DISTINCT mnemonic, addresses.path FROM mnemonics
INNER JOIN addresses ON mnemonics.id = addresses.mnemonic_id
where addresses.tx_count > 0;

Checking bigger ranges

alias Cryptopunk.Crypto.Bitcoin
bech32_path = "m/84'/0'"

mnemonic = "word word word word word word word word word word word word"


Enum.map(0..20, fn idx ->
  {:ok, path} = Cryptopunk.parse_path(bech32_path <> "/0'/0/#{idx}");

    master_key = mnemonic
    |> Cryptopunk.create_seed()
    |> Cryptopunk.master_key_from_seed()

    key = Cryptopunk.derive_key(master_key, path)
    Bitcoin.bech32_address(key, :mainnet) |> IO.inspect() |>  TreasureHunter.Bitcoin.ExplorerAPI.fetch_info() |> IO.inspect
end)
