Solana Coin Disappears from Phantom Wallet: What’s Going On?
Late last week, Solana Coin appeared to have disappeared from a user’s Phantom wallet, leaving them frustrated and scratching their heads. The issue is not limited to one wallet, as several users have reported similar issues with the same coin.
The coin in question was last seen on blockchain explorer Solscan, where it was listed in the trades and transactions list. However, when checking the user’s Phantom wallet, the coin is no longer visible, although it can still be accessed via the online interface.
One user expressed his frustration on Twitter:
“I’ve checked the settings at the bottom of my phantom wallet, and the coin is just not there. It’s like it was never even transferred. I can still see it in solscan, but it’s not showing up in phantom mode.”
Despite efforts to verify the issue with Phantom support and check for possible inconsistencies between wallets, the issue persists.
A Closer Look at Phantom Wallets
Phantom is a mobile wallet developed by Solana Labs that allows users to store, send, and receive cryptocurrencies on their Android devices. While Phantom has been praised for its user-friendly interface and powerful features, some users have reported issues with cryptocurrency disappearing or not being available.
According to reports from other users who have experienced similar issues, the issue can be attributed to a combination of factors, including:
- Incorrect wallet settings: Users who have forgotten to update their wallet configuration or set up additional settings may notice their coin disappearing.
- Coin presence on Solscan
: As mentioned above, even if a coin is visible in the Solscan blockchain explorer, it may not appear in the Phantom wallet due to differences in how these platforms handle cryptocurrency listings.
Phantom Support Response
In response to user inquiries about the issue, Phantom Support has acknowledged the issue and assured users that they are working on a solution. The company has stated that they will provide additional assistance and troubleshooting steps to help resolve the issue.
However, some users have expressed skepticism about the speed of resolution and the level of support provided by Phantom’s customer service team.
