So I’m typing one word per line in a txt file like this: ee tt But when I run btcrecover.py, I’m only getting two combinations: ee and tt. But the output should actually include eett, ee, tt, and ttee. Am I missing something here? Anyone got a clue?

python btcrecover.py  --listpass --passwordlist token.txt contents of token.txt      line1: ee   line2: tt output: 2 combinations ee tt there are no combinations at all. the correct output i think is as follows: ee tt eett ttee right? should there be many combinations when the txt contents as   ee%3d but the actual output is as follows: *          Security: Warning          * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Notice: Loading File:  token.txt ee%3d Notice: Finished File:  token.txt 1 password combinations i dont know where is the problem

That's the issue, you're using --passwordlist instead of --tokenlist. The former will take each line as the complete possible password while the latter generates a number of possible combinations of each line. Help command results for reference:
