How to import Electroneum from Paper Wallet to Online or Mobile Wallet

Good morning… Send it again. This is because of the last update to aurora. Nothing to worry about just needs to migrate to the new chain, so sending it again will fix that. If it doesnt work, create a single ticket at https://support.electroneum.com/hc/en-gb and the team will look into it for you, but im sure it will be fine. Cheers p

Id guess if you dont know the ballance of a paper wallet you probably dont own said wallet

Heres a way to do it 101 guide but IMO if you need to transfer that ballance over to the new chain anyway, just use the app, transfer that over then ypu get the balance, recreate a new paper wallet ( offline ) then start again.

Thats a good point, however if it was done a few years ago and you didnt take records then its easily forgotten. Especially if you have added to that wallet balance since it was created.
