Import into Another Wallet #41

Closed nik-g-second closed 4 years ago

nik-g-second commented 4 years ago

I was recently playing with another wallet (Galleon) and tried to import my account (15 word seed and passphrase). It was originally created with Kukai. That didn't work. Does Kukai use a proprietary seed format, which is not used in other wallets? How can I reveal the private key, so I can try importing it into another wallet?

Kukai uses the same seed format (BIP-39) as Galleon and many other wallets. Just make sure you leave the passphrase empty.

Ah, so the password must be empty! I tried without password and that didn't work.

It worked this time, thanks!

However, I have 2 accounts in Kukai (in addition to the identity). Once I imported in Galleon, I can only see one of the accounts. Do you have any idea why or is it a bug in Galleon?

I'm not sure if it's a bug in Galleon or if they simply have made a different design decision. Can for example be that they decided to not display KT accounts originated after Babylon.
