I moved my funds to another wallet. Really bad that i only can use my seed with one wallet.

I wonder how many other coins have this problem.

Hello,

Last year i bought some Groestlcoin and moved them to a wallet and backed it up with a 12 word mmonic seed. Earlier today i was going to move them. So i tried access my funds with the 12 word seed, i tried multiple wallets without any luck. Finally i tried Groestlpay on my android phone and got the seed to work.



I have one question after todays try of getting to my funds.

Shouldn't my seed work no matter what Groestlcoin app/site/program i use? If not what if the wallet i used stop working or the company go out of business?

Please move the thread if there is a better forum section for it.
I used various platform like ether waves and many more and usually i can open my seed in various wallet whatever kind of that wallet is. it should work but if the company goes out of the business and you can't access the wallet again because as far as i know that the wallet by synched with the blockchain or nodes. Move your amount as soon as possible.

Groestlcoin has its own blockchain and they have a specific wallet. Can you tell us what other wallet/s you tried accessing your coin? Next time you try to transfer, make sure that the other wallet supports your coin.

Yes i know Groestlcoin has it's own blockchain and i know i need to use Groestlcoin wallets which i did, but shouldn't every Groestlcoin wallet work with the same seed?

I used Electrum-GRS both on the computer and Android, i think i used 2 other wallets on my android phone(don't remember the names). Then i used Groestlpay(this is the only one that worked).
