Lost access to my account, can I recover it?

110 sats \ 6 comments \ @020ba85200 12 Dec bitcoin

This was my account: BTC_Commons.

I used my Phoenix wallet to log in. Back in October 2023 my phone was lost during a Halloween party. I recovered my Phoenix wallet using my seed words, and tried logging in to Stacker News.

To my surprise, it didn't log me in to my old account, but a new anon account.

Is there a way to recover access to the old account? I didn't link any other login method, because I thought having my Phoenix wallet seed words were enough.

You might want to reach out to Phoenix. They'd probably be able to tell you if it's lost forever or not.

They actually respond

I contacted tech support once a few months ago

If they can't help, you may have enough in your bio that we might be able to authenticate you that way.

Yeah, Phoenix is not serving US based customers anymore. Probably won't get very lucky with that avenue. How can I authenticate with info from bio? Thank you!
