Leap Wallet: Sunset Notice

After careful consideration, we've made the decision to sunset Leap Wallet and its associated products.

The products will be sunsetted on 28th May, 2026, and all users should complete their migration before then.

We started Leap in 2022 to redefine what wallet experiences in crypto mean. Over time, that journey expanded across multiple ecosystems and 100+ chains. Through every phase, the team approached the work with conviction, care, and a deep sense of responsibility to the users and communities we served.

This decision was not made lightly. We continue to believe in the long-term future of crypto and the interchain ecosystem, and we remain supporters of the builders still in the arena.

What's being sunset

The following products will be sunset after 28th May, 2026:

  • Leap Wallet (Extension, iOS, Android)

  • Compass Wallet (Extension, iOS, Android)

  • Leap WebApp

  • Swapfast

  • Leap Cosmos Hub Validator

  • Leap Cosmos Snaps

Until that date, all wallet products listed above will retain their existing core functionality. You will still be able to view balances, send tokens, manage staking positions, and export your recovery phrase and private keys. All other products listed above will likewise retain their existing functionality until 28th May, 2026.

What users need to do

If you are using one of Leap’s wallet products, we recommend migrating your wallets to another wallet like Keplr, MetaMask, Phantom, or Rabby.

Because Leap is a non-custodial wallet, your assets live on the blockchain, not in our apps. As long as you have your recovery phrase, you can continue to access your assets through another compatible wallet by importing that recovery phrase. Your addresses and balances will carry over automatically.

If you have ATOM delegated to Leap’s Cosmos Hub validator, please redelegate to another validator to continue earning staking rewards. We encourage doing this as early as possible to account for network unbonding periods.

Detailed migration guide and FAQs can be found below.

What to expect next

After 28th May, 2026, all Leap products will be sunset and will no longer function, including applications already installed in your browser or on your mobile device.

Even if you do not migrate from Leap to another wallet before that date, you can still recover access to your assets by importing your recovery phrase into another supported wallet.

Migration support will be available through our official support channels until 28th May, 2026 at support@leapwallet.io

FAQs

The following FAQs apply to all Leap and Compass wallet products, including browser extensions and mobile applications (iOS and Android).

Assets Safety

Q - Will my assets be lost when Leap shuts down?

A - No. Your assets will remain safe. Leap is a non-custodial wallet, meaning your assets are stored on the blockchain, not within the wallet/app. As long as you have your recovery phrase or private key, you can access your assets using another wallet like Keplr, MetaMask, Phantom, or Rabby.

Transfers vs Importing

Q - Do I need to withdraw everything before 28th May?

A - No. There is no need to withdraw or send your assets to a new address. Importing your recovery phrase or private key restores the same address, so your assets remain where they are.

We recommend exporting your recovery phrase or private key from Leap and importing it into another compatible wallet to regain access to your addresses and assets. We also recommend migrating early to ensure a smoother transition before app access ends on 28th May.

Q - What happens if I don’t migrate before the deadline?

A - Your assets are still safe on-chain, but the Leap Wallet app (and all other products) will no longer be available. You’ll need to import your recovery phrase or private key into another wallet like Keplr, MetaMask, Phantom, or Rabby to access them.

We recommend migrating as soon as possible.

Recovery Phrase / Private Key

Q - Where can I find my recovery phrase in Leap?

A - You can export your recovery phrase from the wallet’s security settings inside the app. For step-by-step instructions, refer to our migration guide. 

Q - Why do I have multiple recovery phrases?

A - Each wallet you created may have its own recovery phrase. You’ll need to export and migrate each one separately to ensure all your addresses are restored.

Q - What’s the difference between a recovery phrase and a private key?

A - Both give access to your wallet. A recovery phrase controls multiple addresses, while a private key typically controls a single address.

Q - Can I still export my recovery phrase after 28th May?

A - The Leap Wallet app (and all other products) will not be accessible after 28th May. We recommend that you export your recovery phrase/ private key before that date.

Migration

Q - Which wallet should I migrate to?

A - You can migrate to any compatible wallet that supports the chains you use (Cosmos, EVM, Solana, etc.) like Keplr, MetaMask, Phantom, or Rabby.

Q -  I have multiple wallets in Leap. What should I do?

A - Each wallet may have a different recovery phrase or private key. You will need to migrate them individually:

  • If a wallet was added using a private key, export each private key separately and import them one by one into your new wallet.

  • If wallets were added using different recovery phrases, export each recovery phrase and import them individually into your new wallet.

This ensures all your addresses and associated assets are restored correctly.

Q - Will my NFTs and tokens appear in the new wallet?

A - Yes, your on-chain assets are already tied to your address. When you import the same recovery phrase, you’re just accessing that same address in another wallet. If you don’t see some of your assets, it may be because they’re not visible by default in your chosen wallet’s interface. In such cases, you may need to manually add them. Please refer to your wallet’s support for specific instructions on how to do this.

For example, in Keplr wallet, you need to tap on “Manage asset list” and add token details manually for it to appear in your wallet, if it doesn’t appear already. Similar flows can be found on MetaMask, Phantom, and Rabby as well.

Missing Assets After Import

Q - I imported my phrase but my tokens aren’t showing.

A - If you don’t see some of your assets after importing, it may be because they’re not visible by default in your chosen wallet’s interface. In such cases, you may need to manually add them. Please refer to your wallet’s support for specific instructions on how to do this.

Q - I don’t see my staked tokens after migrating.

A - Staked tokens may not appear automatically in all wallets, but they remain delegated on-chain. 

Follow the staking section in the migration guide to troubleshoot.

Staking / Validator

Q - What happens to my ATOM staked with Leap’s validator?

A - To continue earning staking rewards without disruption, please redelegate your staked ATOM from the “Leap Wallet” validator to another validator before the 28th May deadline.

You may also choose to unstake your ATOM from the “Leap Wallet” validator. However, unstaking will trigger a 21-day unbonding period during which your tokens will not earn rewards and cannot be transferred.

Q -  What is unbonding and why does it take time?

A - Unbonding is the process of releasing your staked tokens back into your available balance. This period is defined at the blockchain network level and applies to all validators. During the unbonding period, your tokens are locked, do not earn rewards, and cannot be transferred until the process completes.

Q - Can I still claim staking rewards after the deadline?

A - Yes, rewards are recorded on-chain. You can claim them through another compatible wallet after importing your recovery phrase or private key.

MetaMask Snaps

Q - What happens to my Cosmos accounts in MetaMask Snaps?

A - You can export your recovery phrase or key and import it into another Cosmos-compatible wallet to access those addresses. 

Follow the Snaps section in the migration guide.

Other Products

Q - I used Swapfast / Leap Dashboard. Do I need to take any action?

A - All Leap products will be rendered inaccessible after 28th May, 2026 including Swapfast & Leap Dashboard. You don't need to do anything to migrate away from those platforms.

Swapfast and Leap Dashboard are user interfaces that allow you to view your portfolio and carry out transactions when connected to your wallet. To continue managing your assets with a similar experience, you can connect your wallet to other compatible dApps that offer comparable functionality.

Access Issues

Q - I forgot my app password, what should I do?

A - Your password protects the app, but your recovery phrase is what controls your assets. You’ll need the phrase to restore access in another wallet app.

Q - I lost my recovery phrase, can you recover my wallet?

A - Leap is a non-custodial wallet, we do not store recovery phrases and cannot restore access. Access is only possible with your phrase or private key.

After the Deadline

Q - I didn’t migrate before 28th May, are my assets gone?

A - No, your assets are still safe on-chain. You’ll just need to use your recovery phrase in another compatible wallet to access them.

We strongly recommend migrating before the 28th May deadline.

Migration Guide

Leap Wallet

Account Migration: Recovery Phrase Account users

If you created or imported a wallet using a recovery (seed) phrase:

  • Open Leap Wallet and tap the hamburger menu (☰) in the top-left corner.

  • Select Export Recovery Phrase under Security and Privacy and securely copy your recovery phrase.

  • Import your recovery phrase into a compatible wallet to access the same addresses and assets. This works across Cosmos, Ethereum, Solana, Sui, and other supported networks, depending on the wallet you choose.

  • If you manage multiple wallets in Leap, repeat this process for each individual recovery phrase. For example, Wallet 1 and Wallet 2 may share one recovery phrase, while Wallet 3 may have a different recovery phrase. In that case, switch to each wallet, export its corresponding recovery phrase, and import each one into your new wallet.

Security reminder: Never share your recovery phrase with anyone, and store it offline in a secure location.

Account Migration: Private Key Account users

If your wallet was created or imported using a private key:

  • Open Leap Wallet and tap the hamburger menu (☰) in the top-left corner.

  • Select Export Private Key under Security and Privacy and securely copy it.

  • Import your private key into a compatible wallet to access the same addresses and assets. This works across Cosmos, Ethereum, Solana, Sui, and other supported networks, depending on the wallet you choose.

  • If you have multiple private-key-based wallets, export and migrate each one individually. For example, Wallet 1, Wallet 2, and Wallet 3 may each have different private keys. In that case, switch to each wallet, export its private key, and import each one into your new wallet.

Note: You do not need to send or withdraw assets to a new wallet address. Importing your recovery phrase or private key into another compatible wallet will restore the same addresses, allowing you to access your assets directly across supported Cosmos, EVM, Solana, and Sui networks.

Ledger / Keystone Users

If you use a Ledger or Keystone hardware wallet, simply connect your device to another compatible wallet. Once connected, you will be able to access the same Cosmos, EVM, Solana, and Sui addresses and assets associated with your hardware wallet.

Validator & Staking Actions

Leap Wallet Cosmos Hub Validator

  • If you’ve staked ATOM with “Leap Wallet” Cosmos Hub validator, please redelegate your stake to another validator as soon as possible.

  • Leap Wallet validator will be shut down on 28th May, 2026, and rewards will stop accruing after that.

Other Validators

  • If you’ve staked with other validators via Leap Wallet, your stake remains on-chain. After importing your recovery phrase into another wallet, you should be able to view and manage it there.

MetaMask Snaps

If you’ve been using MetaMask Snaps, export the recovery phrase from your primary wallet (the wallet you first imported using a recovery phrase) on MetaMask and import it into a Cosmos wallet like Keplr to access your Cosmos addresses.

To export your recovery phrase from MetaMask:

  • Open the app and go to the account selector at the top

  • Tap the three-dot menu next to your account

  • Select Account details

  • Scroll down and tap Secret Recovery Phrase

  • Enter your password

  • Tap and hold Hold to reveal SRP

  • View and copy your recovery phrase securely

Reminder: All Leap products will be fully shut down on 28th May, 2026.

We strongly recommend completing your wallet migration well before the deadline to avoid last-minute issues.
