If you’ve deposited Ordinal inscriptions into the “wrong” Bitcoin address in Hiro Wallet (shown as Bitcoin when you select “Receive” in the header of the home screen), you can use these instructions to migrate them to the “write” address for viewing and safekeeping in your wallet.

⚠️ Important: These instructions involve the use of a third-party wallet called Sparrow that is not owned or created by Hiro. Use them at your own risk with no guarantees on the part of Hiro that they will work properly. If you run into issues while following them, Hiro’s support team may have very limited ability to help you.
