[How to add a BTC Wallet to Butler](/nft-butler/nft-butler/getting-started/add-bitcoin-wallet-ordinals.md)
{% endhint %}

This can be done when adding a new Wallet to Butler or when checking Details of an existing Wallet:

<div><figure><img src="/files/nqCSMgXsgkZeZDgfnn3Q" alt=""><figcaption><p>Adding new Wallet.</p></figcaption></figure> <figure><img src="/files/m86edW52ZzJyCqsSI40q" alt=""><figcaption><p>Adding Ordinals / Taproot WIF on existing ME Wallet</p></figcaption></figure></div>

Now unfortunately ME Wallet doesn't support an option to export the Private Key (WIF) from the Ordinals Receive Address. However the ME Wallet can be imported as new Account to the Unisat wallet with the MagicEden Wallet seed phrase.

This will provide access to the Taproot Addresses (Ordinal Receive Addresses) with the option to export the Private Key.

## Importing MagicEden wallet seed to Unisat

1. First you need to save your seed phrase from MagicEden Wallet -> Security Settings to your local Secret Store (best to store seed and passwords in a keystore like [KeePass](https://keepass.info/)).
2. Next move to your Unisat Account Overview and add a New Account from there:

3. From here we can import the previously exported seed phrase as 12 word mnemonic seed:

4. Next step is to import your seed phrase by typing the 12 words in the correct order here:

Now on this next step you'll have to specify which MagicEden Wallet Account you want to import as new Account on Unisat. See the below listto check the right paths for each ME Account:

* Account 4: `m/86'/0'/3'/0`
* Account 5: `m/86'/0'/4'/0`
* Account 6: `m/86'/0'/5'/0`
* Account 7: `m/86'/0'/6'/0`
* Account 8: `m/86'/0'/7'/0`
* Account 9: `m/86'/0'/8'/0`
* Account 10: `m/86'/0'/9'/0`
  {% endhint %}

## Exporting Private Key from Unisat Account

On your import ME Wallet Account you can now click on your first Wallet Address and export the private key from the Account list:

Then enter your Unisat Password to confirm the export:

{% hint style="info" %}
Only use the exported Private Key to import it to Butler. It will be stored strongly encrypted on your local computer only.

No one from the NFT Butler Team will ever ask for your BTC Private Key / WIF in Discord or anywhere else. Never share it with anyone in chat!
