Key recovery

Bring your HandCash wallet with you

The new HandCash keeps your keys on your device. Move your old wallet with the two recovery keys the HandCash app exports. Nothing moves until you review it and confirm.

  1. 1

    Export your keys from the HandCash app

    The export is two keys that start with xprv. Anyone with both can spend your wallet, so never paste them into a website or share them with anyone.

  2. 2

    Paste them into key recovery

    Open HandCash Mobile and go to Settings → Import → HandCash export, then paste both keys.

    Review, then sweep what is compatible

    Your wallet scans the old addresses and lists your BSV, items and tokens. Sweep moves only plain BSV, 1-sat items and valid BSV-21 tokens, and only after you confirm the preview. Anything else stays where it is, and the wallet shows you why.

Your $handle is separate from your funds. Claim your handle to get paid by name in the new wallet.
