Seed Scanner help
Search anything — fee, key, SmartScreen, withdraw — or jump a topic.
Seed Scanner is a desktop app for Windows and Mac that searches for forgotten crypto wallets. Install on your computer, activate with a Telegram key, and start scanning. Live finds and updates live in the official channel.
Yes for the key, channel, and support. Scanning runs on your desktop — not inside Telegram. Find alerts can still arrive in Telegram while the app is running.
Yes to install and scan. After a successful find, fees shown in the app apply before the seed is released. Then you withdraw the full wallet balance. Optional Lifetime removes the software fee forever. See Fees & payment.
No for the desktop app. Free scanning + success fee, or one-time Lifetime. Mini App node plans are a separate product and not required here.
Native apps for both. Mac covers Apple Silicon and Intel. One key works on either platform — download page.
From the Telegram bot. Installers are in the channel; the key comes from the bot so it stays tied to your Telegram account.
Common for new publishers. Chrome: Downloads → ⋮ → Keep anyway. SmartScreen: More info → Run anyway. Or use the ZIP from the download page.
Install → open Seed Scanner → paste key → Activate → Start. Leaving it in the tray / menu bar is fine — scanning continues.
Yes. Re-activate with the same key; progress and finds can restore. Only one active scan session at a time.
A second launch focuses the open app. That avoids duplicate scans and conflicting finds on one account.
The app runs on your computer and searches for recoverable wallets with balance. On a match you get a find in the app (and usually Telegram). The seed stays locked until you pay the fee or have Lifetime.
The recovery phrase for a wallet — whoever holds it controls the funds. Seed Scanner shows it only after unlock, so you can import into a wallet you trust and withdraw.
Major chains including Bitcoin and common EVM networks. The live list is in the app and channel updates.
No fixed schedule — continuous while the app runs. Overnight is normal. Nobody can honestly promise a find in X hours.
No. You spend time and electricity to search. Free to try; pay only if you unlock a find.
Lost seeds, abandoned early wallets, dust that later grew. Public chain data shows many funded inactive addresses. Seed Scanner looks for recoverable wallets — it does not hack exchanges or take over active accounts.
Usually no — it stays in the tray (Windows) or menu bar (Mac). Fully quit only to stop. Telegram alerts can still arrive while it runs in the background.
20% of that find’s USD value — paid separately to unlock the seed. Then you withdraw the full balance to your wallet. Example: $1,600 find → ~$320 fee → withdraw ~$1,600 on-chain → net ~$1,280.
Only after a successful find, if you unlock the seed. Scanning is free. Ignore a find past the reservation and you lose that slot.
After a find is yours, you have 48 hours to pay and unlock. It keeps finds fair across users — not a fake marketing timer.
A one-time $249 account activation. It is charged once per account when you release the seed after a find is claimed — not per find. Later finds are the software fee only. Scanning and the activation key stay free.
Optional one-time $2500 — removes the 20% fee forever. Not required to scan. Details appear in the app / channel when offered.
Shown in the app when unlocking (typically crypto). Follow that flow only. Support never asks you to pay a random personal wallet outside it.
It appears in the app with balance and a timer. Pay → unlock seed → import into your wallet → withdraw. Never share the seed — including with support.
Never reverse that. Never paste a seed into Telegram or a website form.
You do. After unlock you hold the seed and withdraw yourself. The fee is for the find/unlock service — not custodial payout.
So you can verify on-chain activity before unlocking. Always double-check balances on a trusted explorer.
Usually the reservation expired, or another device hasn’t synced. Re-activate with the same key. Still missing inside 48h? Message @Seed_Scanner with your Telegram username and approx. find time.
New apps often trip SmartScreen / heuristics until reputation builds. Download only from cryptosoftware.tech or the official channel. Anyone asking for your seed in chat is a scam.
Official support @Seed_Scanner will never ask for your seed or private key. Anyone who does is a scammer. After unlock, only you handle the seed.
Only @Seed_ScannerBot, @Seed_Scanner, and cryptosoftware.tech. Bookmark them. Ignore lookalikes and “admin” DMs offering to unlock for you.
No — it doesn’t harvest seeds from your extensions or local wallet apps. Keep personal wallets separate; never paste your own seeds into the app or Telegram.

Nothing matched. Try another word or pick a topic.
Real support on Telegram — never share a seed there.
