Another visual bug here. The icon beside Shopping Corner under Special Features section is not visible. However it is visible in the sidebar. Please fix it & also enhance the overall visiblity in dark mode, especially of theme coloured texts.

Let's stay on topic please. This post/topic is about the ending of the crypto wallet, so let's keep the discussion about it.

If you want to talk about something else, there are other posts/topics more appropriate.

I figured out how to get my funds through METAMASK!
there are videos online that help with that, It took me a while and the problem with metamask is that you have to bridge the crypto depending on what coin you are trying to send and on what network. This was very frustrating but I got it.
Opera wallet money will be recoverable in METAMASK, just have to have the seed phrase and link the account that way. But I had to transfer some "gas" to METAMASK to get this done

@vbpw: Try using a different wallet that supports the Ethereum network.
Your transaction history and funds are recorded on the blockchain and can be recovered using a recovery phrase.
Make sure you import your wallet correctly into the new tool.

@tateunchained: I'm sorry to hear about the issues with your wallet. I recommend using a different wallet to transfer your assets.
Detailed instructions for the migration process can be found in this blog bost.

@gaedp: First, check your last transaction on a public blockchain explorer to make sure it has been recorded. If it's not there, it may indicate a problem with the sending. You can also start using another wallet, such as MetaMask, by following the instructions.

@krzy19 thank you for the response, I was able to do this through MetaMask fortunately, I haven’t had much experience with MetaMask so it took a bit but eventually I got it to work

I was always logged in to my crypto wallet, but this time it logged me out. Is there any way to recover my password?

@krzy19 Thanks boss but i already tried that several times with different wallets, it never goes through, always gets stuck on some insufficient error with me having $50 worth of Usdt in the bnb smart chain

The Opera Crypto Wallet password can’t be “recovered” in the traditional sense — it is not stored anywhere. It is only used to encrypt your seed phrase, and Opera has no access to it. There are two ways to unlock your wallet again:

Use your 12-word secret recovery phrase (backup phrase).
or
Sign in to your Opera Account and sync (if the wallet was saved there). In this case, you still need your wallet password, but not the recovery phrase.

In short:

Have the secret recovery phrase → restore the wallet and set a new password.

No phrase, but the wallet was saved to your Opera Account → log in, sync (you’ll still need the original wallet password), and recover the backup phrase.

@LL3D Sounds like the “insufficient …” message is really saying “insufficient BNB for gas.”
Even though you have USDT on BNB Smart Chain, every transaction still needs a bit of native BNB to pay network fees.

Import your wallet into MetaMask and make sure the balances of all your tokens match what you expect.

Next, check the balance of the network’s native token (for example, BNB on BNB Smart Chain, ETH on Ethereum, or MATIC on Polygon). This native coin is what pays the transaction fees.

If the native-token balance is zero or too low, top it up with a small amount so it can cover those fees. The USDT transaction will go through without the “insufficient” error only when MetaMask shows at least a minimal balance of that native token.
