Today, I had a crash.

100 wallets, just gone like that.

It’s not theft, not accidental deletion, and I didn’t update anything — I just opened the App and everything was empty. I was completely stunned.

Usually, I advise beginners to back up their "private key and seed phrase three times," but now it’s my turn to face the nightmare — having to re-import the damn 100 seed phrases.

Some wallets were created casually for airdrop testing; I can't remember which document or cloud storage I saved the seed phrases in. Maybe on that old phone that’s already out of battery? I completely can't recall.

This has been a lesson for me: don’t open wallets randomly, and if you do, make sure to mark and archive them properly. Otherwise, when something goes wrong, you’ll regret that self who “just created a new address casually.”

Now I can only hope those seed phrases still match… headache.

Damn, a hundred wallets all emptied out directly, how despairing is that... Wait, don't you have a notebook for your seed phrases, brother? Now you know what karma is, haha. Really, don't learn from him. Private keys are something you shouldn't underestimate; it's not about fearing ten thousand, but fearing the one in ten thousand. Now I feel a bit psychologically shadowed because I have over a dozen wallets. But speaking of which, is there a problem with the app itself or... Praying for an increase of , but it feels most likely that it can't be recovered, uh. Just remember it in the future. Wallet management is like marriage; you can't take it lightly.

Oh my, all 100 wallets are gone directly, how desperate is that hahaha --- Serves you right, who told you to create wallets randomly back then, now you regret it, right? --- Honestly, this is just karma for messing up. Still have the nerve to teach others. --- Oh my, you didn't even memorize the seed phrase properly but dare to say you understand wallet management, hilarious. --- All 100 wallets are gone, how long would it take to recover them one by one? --- Haha, I knew opening wallets randomly would eventually lead to debt repayment, it finally happened today. --- Now you've truly experienced what "reaping what you sow" means, serves you right.

Oh my God, this must be the legendary karma and retribution hahaha Me too. A hundred wallets, I’d go crazy. The key issue is that I really can’t remember which mnemonic corresponds to which address. Now I understand. The cost of randomly opening addresses is a bit high. I better organize mine as well.

Damn, 100 wallets were wiped clean directly. That must be so hopeless. But then again, who hasn't done such stupid things... Serves me right. I should have made a spreadsheet to organize everything long ago. Now I guess I have to dig through the entire hard drive to find the mnemonic phrases. Crash site, now there's a story to tell. This is why I only keep two wallets. Having more really becomes unmanageable. Going through 100 mnemonic phrases slowly, since there aren't many coins in there anyway, right... How are there still people opening wallets like this? Such confidence. Looking at this, I feel lucky I was lazy back then and only made a few necessary ones.
