Crypto Wallets - Convert from legacy to current

[miguelslvn]

Hello!

I have a 24 word seed phrase from a legacy wallet that I want to convert to the newer, more standardized 12 word seed phrase. As I understand it, the old 24 word legacy wallet was not compatible with any other wallet system such as Trezor, Metamask and the like as they would resolve a completely different Ethereum address.

I was hoping there was a tool, similar to the old 16 phrase to 24 phrase that Samson created that would convert the 24 phrase to a standard 12 phrase that I can import to other wallet systems.

Unfortunately there’s no way to upgrade from a legacy 24-word to a more standard seed phrase. You’d have to do an on chain transfer to do it and simply stop using the old wallet. That being said, we’ll continue to support the legacy format.
