A large wordlist of over 20 million passphrase phrases paired with two hashcat rule files that generate 1,000+ permutations per phrase for GPU-based offline password cracking. It is maintained in Python with sources scraped from Wikipedia, Wiktionary, IMDB, Billboard, and other datasets.

Use cases

• crack long complex passphrases offline with hashcat
• audit password policies that require passphrases
• generate candidate passphrase permutations for pentesting
• recover NTLMv2 or other password hashes during authorized engagements
• build custom wordlists from pop culture and geographic data sources

When to choose

• you need a curated passphrase wordlist with hashcat rules for GPU cracking
• you are doing authorized penetration testing or password audits
• you want regularly updated phrase sources like memes, movies, and music titles

When to avoid

• you need a general-purpose dictionary for brute-forcing short random passwords
• you want an automated cracking tool rather than wordlist data
• you lack authorization to test the target systems
