Exporting Your Proof of Play Wallet Private Key

Last updated 4 months ago

Was this helpful?

If you created a Proof of Play (PoP) wallet with your email when you created your Pirate Nation account, this process will let you export your private key or seed phrase and self-custody your onchain Pirate Nation account with all its items.

Before you begin to export your private key or seed phrase, read this warning very carefully:

DO NOT share your private key or your seed phrase with anyone! If someone has access to your private key or your seed phrase, they have full access to your account and all of its assets across all compatible blockchains, including Ethereum, Apex and Boss. Pirate Nation and Proof of Play will NEVER ask you for your private key nor your seed phrase.

Export the Private Key

In order to export your private key, make sure you’re signed into Pirate Nation with the account you want to export. Click the wallet menu in the upper-right corner next to the ‘Play’ button. Click ‘Export Private Key’ from the dropdown menu.

Select ‘copy key’ or ‘copy phrase’ from the new menu that pops up, to add it to your computer’s clipboard.

Paste the private key or seed phrase somewhere temporarily while you note it down safe & preferably offline. If you lose access to the your wallet you will need either one of these to recover it.

Be very careful with your private key and seed phrase. Do not share either of them with anyone or store them anywhere insecure.

Import the Private Key/Seed Phrase into a Wallet

The next step is to add your private key or seed phrase into the wallet of your choosing. We’ve added directions here for Rabby and MetaMask.

Open your Rabby wallet and click ‘Add an Address.’

Click ‘Import Address’ and paste your private key or seed phrase in the appropriate fields provided. After that, you can access your Pirate Nation account with your Rabby wallet.

MetaMask

Click the account selector at the top of your wallet. Select 'Add account or hardware wallet' at the bottom of the list.

On the next menu, select 'Import account.’

You will be directed to the Import page. Select the private key option, paste your private key and click the 'Import' button.

After that, you’ll be able to access your Pirate Nation account with all your items in your MetaMask wallet. The ‘Imported’ tag will help you identify your Pirate Nation wallet.
