Service Shutdown Announced for Cosmos Ecosystem Wallet: User Migration Required
A non-custodial wallet provider within the Cosmos ecosystem has confirmed it will begin winding down its services, with the process taking effect starting September 1, 2026.
Service Wind-Down Timeline and Implications
Beginning on the specified date, the wallet's iOS and Android mobile apps, along with its browser extension, will enter a reduced-functionality phase. Only two core features will remain accessible: “Export Seed Phrase” and “Export Private Key.” All other functionalities for interacting with the blockchain will be progressively disabled.
Consequently, users will no longer be able to perform actions such as sending transactions, staking, voting, or connecting to decentralized applications through this wallet interface after the deadline.
Critical Actions for Users
As a non-custodial service, user assets are always secured directly on the blockchain and are not held by the provider. The safety of funds depends entirely on users safeguarding their own access keys.
The team has issued an urgent advisory: All users must securely back up their private keys or seed phrases before September 1, 2026.
- Step One: Immediately access your wallet and use the “Export Seed Phrase” or “Export Private Key” function to retrieve your credentials.
- Step Two: Back up this information in a secure, offline manner (e.g., using a steel backup tool or writing it in a protected physical location, away from digital devices).
- Step Three: Import your backed-up seed phrase or private key into another compatible Cosmos ecosystem wallet (such as Keplr or Leap Wallet) to restore access to your assets and continue operations.
Next Steps and Precautions
After migrating, it's wise to test the new wallet with a small transaction to confirm all assets are restored correctly. Always verify the authenticity of any new wallet software through official channels to avoid phishing sites or malware.
This service closure does not affect on-chain asset ownership; it merely signifies the discontinuation of one specific user interface. As long as keys are securely managed, users retain full control over their funds.
