🔑Export WIF from ME Ordinals Address

To use Auto Listing Tasks with Ordinals on a Magic Eden Wallet, it's necessary to add the Private Key (WIF) for the Ordinals Receive Address in your BTC Wallet first.

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

Adding new Wallet.
Adding Ordinals / Taproot WIF on existing ME Wallet

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).

  2. Next move to your Unisat Account Overview and add a New Account from there:

Go back to the Account Overview
Add a new Account
  1. From here we can import the previously exported seed phrase as 12 word mnemonic seed:

Restore from mnemonics seed phrase
Use "Other Wallet" here...
  1. Next step is to import your seed phrase by typing the 12 words in the correct order here:

Import 12 word Magic Eden Wallet seed

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:

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:

Clicking on my main Account
Then opening settings on Account 1
Hit "Export Private Key" to export it

Then enter your Unisat Password to confirm the export:

Enter Unisat app password
Copy the WIF Private Key and add it to the matching Wallet in Butler.

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!

The exported Private Key (WIF) can be imported to the right BTC Wallet in Butler with the matching Taproot (Ordinals Receive) Address.
