Anyone knows a good tool that can make a password dictionary? I need something that can mix up cases and layouts, like trying different keyboards. Wanna save all those variations to a file for later use.

Check out Hashcat with PrinceProcessor mode. It does exactly what you need. Way easier than trying to create all the rules yourself. Just look into the combinator options, it’s super fast too.

BTCRecover can do that as well. Just set your rules like typos-capslock and use the listpass option. It’ll only list passwords in a file, but it's kinda tricky to set up compared to Hashcat.

Honestly, Hashcat with PP is the way to go. You input your base words, and it generates variations on the fly without needing a huge wordlist. For wallet recovery, BTCRecover is solid too, but yeah, setup can be a pain.

Using Hashcat is cool, but you gotta follow some steps first. Write your base word in a file called base.txt. If you’re using ‘this forum’ as the word, then save it like that. Then create a rule file named leet.rule and put both files in the same folder as hashcat.exe. Run a command in terminal, and your output will show up in output.txt.

There’s also this tool I love: github.com/sc0tfree/mentalist. It’s neat and does the job well!
