Follow the official step-by-step process to migrate your assets from Legacy Zelcore to BIP-44 Zelcore for enhanced security and compatibility.
Legacy (username and password) login is deprecated and will be phased out. It still works in the current release, and no cut-off date has been announced, so move to a BIP-44 seed phrase account now. Please follow the steps below carefully and refer to the official PDF guide for detailed instructions.
Legacy (username and password) login is deprecated and will be phased out. It still works in the current release, but no cut-off date has been announced, so we recommend moving to a BIP-44 seed phrase account now. This involves downloading the latest Zelcore, creating a new BIP-44 account, and manually transferring your assets. The new BIP-44 standard provides better security, improved backup and recovery options, and enhanced compatibility with other wallet applications.
Follow these steps exactly as outlined in the official PDF guide. Always test with small amounts first before transferring larger balances.
Get the latest Zelcore from the official website: https://zelcore.io/ and install it on your preferred device. You can use the same device as your legacy Zelcore or a different one.
Open Zelcore and choose 'Sign/Register with BIP-44 seed phrase account' on the welcome screen. Generate your 24-word seed phrase, write it down and store it securely—do not copy/paste it into a document on your computer.
In BIP-44 Zelcore, add all the assets you'll be migrating. Get your new receive addresses by copying them or scanning QR codes. From your legacy Zelcore, send your assets to your BIP-44 Zelcore addresses. Always test with a small amount first.
If you have Flux nodes: Delete each node from the legacy Nodes app and immediately send collateral to your BIP-44 Flux wallet. Set up each node in the BIP-44 FluxNodes app, wait for 100 confirmations, update node details, and start your nodes.
Once the lock period ends, your stake will appear in the Expired section. Select Redeem, choose the Redeem Address, and sign the redemption. Funds are processed on Thursdays and Sundays. Export all transactions as CSV for documentation. You may restake using your BIP-44 wallet if desired.
If you encounter any issues during the migration process, please contact Zelcore support for assistance. Moving your assets to a BIP-44 seed phrase account now means you will not be affected when legacy login is phased out.
