TRUST WALLET MNEMONIC TO PRIVATE KEY

Since a lot of people keep asking me for help with converting their Trust Wallet mnemonic to a private key they can import into MetaMask, I decided to write this article. Sharing a link will cost me less time 😉.

This guide consists of only three parts:

1. Exporting your mnemonic from Trust Wallet
2. Converting mnemonic to private key
3. Importing private key into MetaMask

Exporting your mnemonic from Trust Wallet

• Open the Trust Wallet mobile app
• On the bottom right, click on ‘Settings’
• At the top, click on ‘Wallets’
• Click on the (i) after ‘Main Wallet’

• Click on Show Secret Phrase

• Click all three checkboxes to confirm you understand the sensitivity of this secret phrase.

• On the next screen, you will see your secret phrase (mnemonic).
  Click ‘Copy’.

🎉 Congratulations on finishing step 1!! 🎉
You now have your mnemonic that we will use in the next step.

Converting mnemonic to private key

• Go to https://github.com/iancoleman/bip39/releases
• Download the latest offline version bip39-standalone.html to your computer. (Turn off your internet connection now if you care about security)
• Open the html file with your browser

• Enter your mnemonic from step 1 in field BIP39 Mnemonic

• Choose ETH for ‘Coin’

• Go to the BIP44 tab

• Scroll down to the table
• Your public address should now match the first row of column ‘Address’!

• Copy your private key from the column ‘Private Key’ and import it to other wallets like MetaMask (next step).

Importing private key into MetaMask

• Open MetaMask mobile app
• On top, click on your avatar to open the bottom menu
• Click on ‘Import an Account’
• Paste the private key of the previous step
• Click on ‘Import’

IMPORT PRIVATE KEY INTO METAMASK

🎉 DONE!! 🎉
