Seeing someone claim that Grok 4.20 cracked a wallet with years of forgotten mnemonic words in just 492 seconds, actually standard encrypted wallets (BIP39 / Bitcoin / Ethereum) cannot be brute-forced like that.
128/256-bit key space is astronomically large, and AI cannot bypass mathematics. It can only assist in brute-forcing the remaining possibilities when you already remember most of the mnemonic words and have only 1 to 3 words missing. Therefore, any story claiming "completely forgot wallet information, AI can help me crack the private key in a few minutes" either omits the premise or is purely marketing.
