  1. 25:50 — FYI, the last word is always a checksum so with six words missing you only need to five more to know the phrase so it’s only 3.6e16 to one to guess. However, consider that (based on random Google search), a single ASIC can calculate 1e14 hashes per second. Generating and verifying a private key from the wordlist is probably a bit slower but even if it's ten times slower it means that if you’re missing five words a single ASIC can generate a private key in 3600 seconds, i.e. an hour. If you have a farm of them, you can guess the rest of the words faster.
