      Hi I need help
      This is the first time I'm hearing about this. Idk why I didn't get an email they're retiring this service
      Have my bitcoin stored on Opera wallet for years

      Today I went to the browser wallet and it says I don't have one. I went to my phone browser bc that's where it always appeared
      It says to make the Recovery password (12 words thing). I press it. It says error encountered due to Android functionality
      Crypto wallet disappears from the options on my phone browser
      WTF????

      I sync accounts on phone and browser. Browser wallet still says I dont have a wallet.

        @krzy19 Hi there, I'm encountering a similar issue as well.
        I had my wallet on the android browser and when I went to it and pressed it to make the 12-word passkey (2 days ago, upon finding out the service is retiring for the first time and being prompted to make one in the first place), it errored out.
        The android browser no longer shows the crypto wallet - autoupdate?
        The accounts were supposed to be synced but the browser can't find the wallet.
        So, what do I do now?

          I assume you created a wallet on your mobile device, during which you were prompted to write down your 12-word seed phrase. It appears that later you didn’t sync the wallet with an Opera Account and only used it on your phone.

          Currently, the process for saving your backup phrase should look like this:

          02_crypto_wallet_button.jpeg
          03_onboard.jpeg
          04_unlock.jpeg
          05_backup.jpeg
          06_confirm_wipe.jpeg

          1. Find the Crypto Wallet button in your account tab – it’s only visible if a wallet has been created (and not removed).
          2. Unlock your wallet.
          3. Write down your 12-word phrase.
          4. Confirm that your backup phrase will no longer be accessible through Opera. Make sure it’s saved securely.
          5. Confirm understanding.

            @reesjank: Based on your message, it seems you are using the Crypto Wallet for Android, which was sunsetted over six months ago (https://blogs.opera.com/crypto/2024/12/how-to-migrate-your-opera-mobile-crypto-wallet/). I have double-checked, and exporting the backup phrase is still available. Please remember: with non-custodial wallets, you are fully responsible for the security of your 12-word backup phrase.

                @premsudheer: We are currently phasing out the Crypto Wallet — after this date, functionality has been limited to exporting the seed phrase only.
                If you have a saved 12-word seed phrase, you do not need to use this feature because you already have your wallet at hand.

                You can import it into any other wallet, such as MetaMask, following the instructions in the article.

                Please try to find your assets in the new wallet.

                  @krzy19: I tried importing into meta mask. But no assets available in the new wallet. that's why I have concerns

                    @premsudheer: After importing your wallet into MetaMask, try checking your portfolio using the website https://portfolio.metamask.io/
                    Portfolio can automatically show tokens that are not visible in the MetaMask Extension — thanks to aggregated data from the chain. If you do not see the token in your wallet, try using Portfolio - they are often detected there. Transactions should also be visible on public blockchain explorers like https://etherscan.io/ regardless of any wallet.

                      @krzy19 Dear krzy19,
                      Thanks so much for taking the time to respond and posting detailed step-by-step instructions with pictures 🙏

                      Exactly, I created the account back in 2020 and it never asked me to make a seed phrase. I also accessed it only via my phone browser. I could still log in this year several times to view it, but never received any update that the wallet was retiring…

                      I tried Step 1 on Thursday when I found out about this, and saw the icon there. Moving to Step 2 I logged in with my phone unlock pattern. It went to the screen you showed that asked me to create the password.

                      Suddenly a white popup appeared that said “Error - Android” smth and then the browser no longer had the wallet icon available. I don’t know if it went to the next step but probably not as it just crashed like that. I can’t access the wallet icon at all now (it doesn’t show up on my browser).

                        Ok thanks, yes I would like to export it! 🙏 I just don’t know how to access it as mentioned! My desktop says there is no wallet it knows, and the phone browser doesn’t show the icon.
