Import your Magic Eden wallet into Phantom

  • Updated

Magic Eden wallet is deprecated. To keep access to your tokens and NFTs, export your private key from Magic Eden and import it into Phantom.

Your assets are tied to your private key, not the Magic Eden wallet app. Importing your private key into Phantom gives you access to the same address for that key, including the tokens, NFTs, and transaction history tied to it.

Before you start

Here's what you'll need:

  • Access to your Magic Eden wallet.
  • The Phantom app. Download it for free on iOS, Android, or as a browser extension at phantom.com/download.
  • A private moment. You will view your private key, so make sure no one can see your screen.

Warning: Never share your Secret Recovery Phrase or private key with anyone. Anyone with access to either has full control of your wallet. Phantom Support will never ask for your recovery phrase or private key.

Step 1: Export your private keys from Magic Eden

Follow Magic Eden's guide to export your private keys: How to Migrate Your Magic Eden Wallet Before April 1st.

If you used multiple networks in Magic Eden, such as Solana and Bitcoin, export a private key for each network you want to import.

Phantom supports importing private keys on the following networks: Solana, Bitcoin, Ethereum, Base, and Polygon. Private keys on other networks cannot be imported.

Step 2: Import your private key into Phantom

From the welcome screen

If you haven't set up a wallet in Phantom yet, start from the welcome screen in the Phantom mobile app or browser extension.

From inside Phantom

If you already have a wallet in Phantom, import the private key as an additional account.

Your wallet is now accessible in Phantom, including all NFTs and transaction history.

Step 3: Transfer your assets to a Phantom account

Imported private key accounts do not sync across devices. We recommend transferring your assets to a Phantom wallet backed by a Secret Recovery Phrase, which you can restore on another device.

You need enough of each network's native token to pay network fees before you can transfer assets. For example, you may need SOL on Solana, BTC on Bitcoin, or ETH on Ethereum.

  1. In Phantom, select the imported private key account that holds your Magic Eden assets.
  2. Choose the asset you want to transfer and select Send.
  3. Select your Phantom account as the destination.
  4. Confirm the transfer.

Repeat these steps for each asset and network you want to move. After the transfers are complete, your assets will be in your Phantom account.

Common issues

I see "incorrect format" when importing a private key from Magic Eden

This can happen for two reasons:

  • You copied and pasted the key. Type it in manually instead.
  • You selected the wrong network. For example, you may have Solana selected in Phantom but are entering a key for Ethereum. Make sure the network selected in Phantom matches the key you are importing.
