I successfully closed my position on PancakeSwap Perpetual with a small profit. swapped 8 USDT to BNB for future fees and left 100USDT for next day trading. Shortly after, when I checked my account, my USDT balance was completely zeroed out. No transaction history no reject/approve… can somebody explain to me whats goin on? :S

Hi @atagunbugra , welcome to MetaMask community

Can you check on bsc scan if you can still see USDT balance or check on debank about your portfolio.

If you see balance as mentioned above in block-explorer, follow this article [https://support.metamask.io/hc/en-us/articles/360028059272-What-to-do-when-your-balance-of-tokens-is-incorrect](https://support.metamask.io/hc/en-us/articles/360028059272-What-to-do-when-your-balance-of-tokens-is-incorrect)

If you don’t see any unauthorized transaction and still missing out USDT balance in block explorer , then contact pancakeswap support.

If you did not recognize the transaction on block-explorer or if you did not authorized, then kindly contact MetaMask support by following this article [Do you think your wallet has been hacked? - READ HERE](https://community.metamask.io/t/do-you-think-your-wallet-has-been-hacked-read-here/14059)

Hi @qahhaar,

“When you restore a wallet using your Secret Recovery Phrase, MetaMask will automatically re-add any additional accounts you had previously added — but only under certain conditions. **Accounts are automatically re-added if they have a non-zero ETH balance**. However, this process ends when MetaMask encounters an account with 0 ETH — so the first account with 0 ETH (and any beyond it) will _not_ be added.”

You need to create them one by one, the same way you have created them before. For further information in this regard, please refer to the following guide. Let us know in case you need further assistance.

Hi friend! I would to help you, but could you give a more detailed and precise overview.

When you use a seed phrase to recover a cryptocurrency wallet, it can only bring back the addresses that were originally created with that specific seed phrase. However, if you’ve added other addresses to your wallet that were made with a different seed phrase, you can’t recover these with the first seed phrase. To get those additional addresses back, you need the seed phrase that was originally used to create them.

NOTE: NEVER SHARE YOUR SEED PHRASE OR PRIVATE KEY WITH ANYEONE.

Hi @qahhaar,

As it is written in the guide that I have shared: " Any **imported** accounts will **not** be re-added when you restore your wallet using your Secret Recovery Phrase. [They need to be manually re-added](https://support.metamask.io/hc/en-us/articles/360015489331) in the same way you imported them originally."

For the other accounts under the secret recovery of the main wallet, you need to add them one by one, the same way you have created them, as I mentioned in my first response.

By the way, I have checked the addresses you’ve shared and the balance of all is zero. Are you aware?

hi…thanks for helping. I rewrote the recovery phase and after it was successful there was only an import wallet. another wallet has disappeared and it is very important because I have a smart contract with that wallet address. Satisfied, I tried but got stuck…

Hi Maryam, thank you for your help. i am puzzled when my import account is there and other account is missing from metamusk. I have tried many times but the original address of my wallet is not visible. I have a contract with the wallet account and this makes me stuck. yes maryam, my wallet balance is empty because of the transfer to binance and the smart contract is still valid for the wallet account. this story happened when I tried to transfer coins from smart contract many times but failed… from there I tried to fix it but failed when all my wallet addresses from metamusk were lost

Hi @qahhaar

> [@qahhaar](#):

The account appearing after restoring a wallet using Secret Recovery Phrase is the main account and not the imported one. You have most possibly confused the main account with the imported one.

You may have backed up the missing wallet’s Secret Recovery Phrase (SRP) somewhere. You need to have the SRP of the missing account to restore it.

Reminder: **NEVER** share your wallets Secret Recovery Phrase with anyone and **NEVER** enter them on any sites.

Hi Maryam…thanks for your information. I have 2 metamusk apps (2 iphones) and I create a wallet in each metamusk app. I save every secret phase of metamusk apps. In the first metamusk I created 7 wallet addresses. in the second metamusk there is only 1 wallet and I import this wallet to the first metamusk with the private key. so in the first wallet I deleted the apps and reinstalled with the secret phase but there was only an import wallet. 7 wallets I made before are gone. thats 5 wallets address from 7 wallets have a smart contract. that’s why I’m stuck and can’t sleep well

Hi,  
You have most possibly entered the other wallet’s SRP and not the one you are looking for. Since you have the SRP of the wallet, I suggest to install it again.

hi see you again after these few days the condition of the body is not healthy after this event… have repeated the way you mean but still failed. I have tried my best to ensure that the key is correct but the condition is still the same… I tried to refer to MetaMask to recover the wallet step but it didn’t work… there is no problem with the secret phase but the wallet is lost
