Unable to claim unstaked DOT in Trust Wallet

8

If you’re experiencing the same issue I had, where you are unable to unstake your staked DOT via Trust Wallet due to an “insufficient balance” error, here’s how I resolved it.

Requirements:

  1. A PC
  2. The Nova wallet app installed on your mobile device

Steps to Unstake:

  1. On your PC, run the WalletConsole utility. To do this, ensure you have Docker installed on your PC. Follow the steps in this guide to import your wallet and obtain your wallet’s private key.
  2. Open the Nova wallet app on your mobile device. Use the “Raw seed” import method, paste the private key obtained in the previous step, and set the derivation path to “Edwards (ed25519, alternative)” (you can find the settings button in the top right corner of the private key input screen).

If you followed these steps correctly, you should have successfully imported your existing Polkadot wallet (created with TW). You will now be able to manage your staked DOT using the Nova wallet. :blush:
