I completely forgot 🤦‍♂️

All I have is a phrase in my manual notebook, and it says parity. When I look for it now there is not a single clue about wallet parity. I really forgot. I only found continuity with MEW when I searched with the keyword parity on google, but when I tried to enter my phrase, access was unsuccessful 😭

Well maybe I'll try Polkadot Vault and Mycrypto wallet (https://mycrypto.com/)

I really forgot because this was several years ago and in the last few years I have rarely dealt with crypto. I just accessed my Jaxx wallet last week via exodus. I hope to be able to access the funds I have stored in parity

I am not sure if you still know how much was in the address or addresses, but you can recover the wallet using Both MEW and mycryptowallet. For MEW, after entering the seed and recovering the first account. If you see nothing in it. Just keep creating new accounts. For each new account you create, it will be in the same order of the addresses in the HD wallet. I prefer Mycryptowallet because it's more direct.

Are you talking about parity signer, right?

I remember using it a couple of years back. I think your problem could be the derivation path used. Furthermore, I also noticed that the wallet or app is now called Polkadot vault. I am not sure where this leaves its compatibility with Ethereum, but I believe your old seed phrase should be able to generate your addresses on MEW or Mycrypto wallet (https://mycrypto.com/)

Hello guys. I want to ask about how to recover wallet parity. All I have here is my parity wallet phrase
[...]

As logfiles already said, I also assume that you mean the parity signer from Polkadot. If not, please specify exactly what you mean by parity.

Polkadot has written a very simple guide on how to restore the wallet here: Parity Signer: How to Restore Your Account

However, you should definitely take the tips and advice to heart: The app should be installed on a mobile phone that is NOT (and will not be) connected to the internet. This way you can ensure that your private key actually remains offline.
