Importing your private keys to an external wallet

Once you've reconstructed your Derived Addresses Private Keys using the Fireblocks Vault Key Derivation Tool, you can import them into a third-party wallet. The exact wallet depends on the blockchain. For most EVM-compatible chains, the recommended wallet is MetaMask, and the procedure is identical except for the network parameters. Non-EVM chains use chain-specific wallets and have their own sections below.

MetaMask (EVM-compatible chains)

MetaMask is a cross-platform application for managing any Ethereum-compatible blockchain network. It supports importing private keys. Download MetaMask.

Import procedure

1. Open MetaMask.
2. Select the target network from the network menu. If it's not listed, select Add Network and enter the Network Name, New RPC URL, Chain ID, Currency Symbol, and Blockchain Explorer URL from the table below.
3. Confirm the currently selected network is now set to the target network.
4. Select Import Account from the avatar menu.
5. Select Private Key as the type.
6. Enter your Derived Addresses Private Key retrieved using the Fireblocks Vault Key Derivation Tool.
7. Select Import.
