Thank You All for your answers.

I logged in to my Blockchain account and I found the old address with the Bitcoin in it.

There is a description that says:

"Imported Bitcoin addresses

Imported funds are not protected by your Recovery Phrase. To ensure these funds are secured, please transfer them directly into your wallet.

'Verify Message'  (button)"


"Address  12D....
Balance 0,00127 BTC

'Actions'
Manage  (menu)

  • Archive
  • Private Key
  • Sign Message
  • Send
"

What does this mean - what would happen if I pressed 'Verify Message' button?

I'm a little anxious, because earlier when I tried to use the Bitcoin in my Blockchain account a popup appeared and asked me to tap it to transfer the Bitcoin to the wallet from my address, unfortunately I did tap it and I regretted this action immediately, because I lost more than 10 $ by tapping it.

What should I do, which 'Action' could I choose that would maximize the amount of Bitcoin I can use?

If I choose the 'Send' option I can send the full amount of Bitcoin (minus the transaction fee) to an another Bitcoin address?

Thank You for your answer in advance!

Bitcoin address - wallet restoration

Hi, I need some advice on how I could get my Bitcoin address back.

I have an old Bitcoin address created in 2014 with 0.00127 Bitcoin on it, I would like to get this Bitcoin back.

The Bitcoin address probably is a blockchain.com address, but I don't know for sure. How could I find out if that address is a blockchain.com address? If it's even important in this case.

I have an old blockchain.com wallet, in 2018 I saved the 12 secret words for it.

I logged in to blockchain.com in 2024 and I saw my Bitcoin address with the Bitcoin amount, but I couldn't use it because it wasn't in a wallet.

I needed validate my blockchain.com account, after I did that, I got a new wallet (probably a DeFi wallet?) and I didn't see the address anymore.

Should I restore my old wallet to solve this problem?

Can I only restore my old wallet at blockchain.com or could I restore it at another provider?

Thank You for your answer in advance!
