Electrum bitcoin wallet - duhblow7 - 05-12-2017
Can I use hashcat against electrum bitcoin wallet?
Algorithm:
SHA256
AES_256_CBC
--aes_cuda.cu, aes_opencl.c
These wallets are only hashed with 2 rounds of SHA256 so it shouldn't be too difficult.

Electrum's KDF does not seem to be supported by hashcat currently, at least from what I can tell. There are other tools that do support electrum wallet cracking available, though you may not have GPU support. My personal suggestion in this case would be Gurnec's BTCRecover: https://github.com/gurnec/btcrecover/tree/master/btcrecover
According to https://github.com/magnumripper/JohnTheRipper/issues/2504 work is being done to add support for Electrum's KDF to JTR.
If you would like to see it added to hashcat, you can submit a request via the hashcat Github page here: https://github.com/hashcat/hashcat/issues
Just make sure you follow the format explained in the FAQ here: https://hashcat.net/wiki/doku.php?id=frequently_asked_questions#i_want_to_request_some_new_algorithms_or_features_how_can_i_accomplish_this
If if helps you, here is a good example of an algorithm request that was accepted and added to hashcat: https://github.com/hashcat/hashcat/issues/1204
