[ELI5] why don't people mine wallets?
For pre-HD wallets, see brainflayer https://github.com/ryancdotorg/brainflayer
-
How to make a custom private key [in python] and import it in a Bitcoin wallet?
If you want to use a password like this consider a key derivation function like pbkdf2. (This does not make it safe but you begin to stray away from old brain wallets that are all compromised already see https://github.com/ryancdotorg/brainflayer )
-
What is your view on brain wallets.
Your wording attempts to fool people into using brainwallets by appealing to ego. Nobody has the ability to make a passphrase from their brain with sufficient entropy to be secure. Stop promoting insecure methods https://github.com/ryancdotorg/brainflayer
-
How do you make litecoin brainwallets in python?
Brainflayer is a Proof-of-Concept brainwallet cracking tool
-
Do people still use brain wallets?
Brainflayer is still running, but does not find new keys because the whole world switched to deterministic wallets https://github.com/ryancdotorg/brainflayer
- Self-proclaimed Bitcoin inventor largely prevails in $54B Bitcoin trial

where can I download software on PC to brute force bitcoin? just for the fun to try
Brainflayer discovers single keys created by hashing low-entropy "brain passwords". It pre-dates HD wallets, pre-dates SegWit https://github.com/ryancdotorg/brainflayer

Completely custom seed phrase
For fun, read about brainflayer https://github.com/ryancdotorg/brainflayer

How is Bitcoin 'unconfiscatable' if you should not use a brainwallet?
Brainwallet normally means something easy to remember, and therefore easy to brute force. See brainflayer, a tool for stealing coins from brainwallets https://github.com/ryancdotorg/brainflayer
-
Downside of brainwallet for long term hodling?
People don't talk about brain wallets because nobody uses the same definition. The commonly accepted definition, from when they were popular, is "easy to remember, easy to steal". See brainflayer https://github.com/ryancdotorg/brainflayer

Seed working but not displaying bitcoin
Edit: I GOT IT!!!, had to use https://btcrecover.readthedocs.io/. Turns out I had the wrong word. Thank you u/Crypto-Guide, you are a lifesaver. My week just got a whole lot better.

Sound off if you have atomic wallet and your coins are still there.
I'm not aware of any such list, and I don't think atomic has even disclosed all of their derivation paths. For example the derivation path to ethereum had to be reverse-engineered, it is possible to get the private key to ethereum address made with atomic using the recovery software btcrecover. However it can be a little painful to get running and the documentation is quite extensive because it caters to so many different wallets.
-
Is multisig safer?
BTCRecover (https://btcrecover.readthedocs.io/) does this (I maintain the tool), basically something like an M1 Mac can easily check about 200,000 seeds per second.

The story of how I recovered my buddy's mnemonic phrase for his validator.
Also, for anyone without your coding skills, BTCRecover is a free open-source program from /u/Crypto-Guide that traces its origins nearly a decade.

Help a buddy out, please!
One of the most used and trusted tools for this is btcrecover (current fork of 3rdIteration). It can run offline if you are concerned about security, but it's not the most user-friendly tool.
- $100 in ETH if you guess the order of my seed phrase (24 words)
-
Hidden Wallet and 0 funds
You can try and go it manually, but if you get fed up with that then you can also use tools like BTCRecover to attempt to speed up checking https://btcrecover.readthedocs.io/ (I also have a bunch of videos about it on my channel)
-
Friend forgot his PIN we recovered his Trezor but the Founds are gone
You need to be sure you have the right seed... The passphrase is easy to mess up, so you can try a bunch of things by hand or use BTCRecover to help test a bunch of seeds very quickly. (https://btcrecover.readthedocs.io/)

I lost the last 2 words of my seed phrase.
BTCRecover can be used for this https://btcrecover.readthedocs.io/
