Greetings all.
I have an old Litecoin wallet (with very little in it) - I wanted to try to crack it as an exercise. First I tried patterns and masks that SHOULD have worked, but didn't. Eventually, in desperation, I switched to using a Dictionary that ONLY has the known correct password in it, and I still can't get hashcat to win with it.
I've made sure the hash is in the right format (from https://hashcat.net/wiki/doku.php?id=example_hashes) but hashcat fails to recognize the password.
NOTE: I've used the same hash with btcrecovery.py and JohnTheRipper with success, so I believe the hash is valid. Here is the output of what I'm trying.
Can anyone point me in the right direction? I'm stymied. Thanks!

The wordlist or mask that you are using is too small.
This means that hashcat cannot use the full parallel power of your device(s).
Unless you supply more work, your cracking speed will drop.
