It happened to me! My phone with my wallets was destroyed!

Hello!

So, it happened to me. My cell phone, which is where I have a few wallets, including MetaMask, CB Wallet, my Reddit vault, etc. was destroyed. So, no longer could I get to my crypto by typing in a PIN or opening an app.

I got a new cell phone and got my seed to my MetaMask and typed it in and boom, my wallet was restored. I did the same thing for my CB Wallet, and that worked too.

Then I tried my Reddit Vault. I typed in my seed but the vault wouldn't reinstall. Now, I do have some fake seeds hidden in certain places and I may have typed in one of the fake seeds or an old seed. The app indicated I would need either my password or my seed. Since apparently I had typed in either a fake seed or a seed to an older version of a vault, I tried my password and my vault reappeared.

There are 2 points/issues with this post:

  1. Make sure you have your seed phrases stored safely! I did and I was able to restore a few wallets easily (such as MetaMask and CB Wallet). I have one wallet with about $10 that I haven't located my seed phrase for yet. I believe I know where that is, but it will take me some time to get to it, so I'm not concerned. But, because I did have my seed phrases, I am NOT posting about how I lost all of my crypto. I'm posting about how I easily recreated my wallets on a new cell phone.
  2. It seemed that I was able to restore my Reddit vault with only my password. Is this accurate or do you think it restored because I had entered a seed phrase already and when I added the password the combo restored it? If you can restore your Reddit vault with only your password, doesn't that mean anyone who can guess your password can access your Reddit vault?

Thanks!
