You need to way more specific than that. What kind of wallet hash, from which wallet software etc?


The normal steps for any attack are

  1. Extract a hash using the right hash extraction script, see here a link to John The ripper extract scripts, they also work for hashcat https://github.com/openwall/john/tree/bleeding-jumbo/run
  2. Chose the right attack mode based on the knowledge you have of the password and using the right hash mode (-m some number). See here a list of modes and example hashes
    https://hashcat.net/wiki/doku.php?id=example_hashes
  3. Read here more on Attack modes under heading Core attacks modes: https://hashcat.net/wiki/ and choose the right attack mode for the job.

Lastly, please do not be so lazy in asking questions. Be specific and first read a bit yourself. The policy on this forum is not to "spoon feed" solutions. I put this answer as a courtesy to all beginning users who still need to learn how to extract and attack a hash. We all have been beginners at one point.
