Meetup Recap & Recording: SecondFi Asset Migration & Safety Guide

With the planned service wind-down of the SecondFi wallet, securing and properly migrating your funds is essential for every user. To guide the community through this transition, Cardano Africa Academy organized an urgent virtual meetup on Monday, August 24, 2026, at 7:00 PM UTC via Google Meet.

The session was facilitated by Jeremiah Baani, who delivered an in-depth presentation on the overall asset migration strategy. He walked attendees through the platform’s current status, including its non-transactional isolation mode, the built-in official migration module, and the upcoming claims verification portal designed to safeguard user balances.

The practical walkthrough covered the entire transfer workflow - from setting up destination wallets (such as Eternl, Vespr, Lace ) and migrating ADA, native tokens, and NFTs, to critical post-migration steps like redelegating staked ADA. The guide also emphasized crucial security best practices, such as storing seed phrases offline, avoiding third-party links or unofficial APKs, and always running a test transaction first.

Overall, the meetup was a major success. As part of measuring the impact, four participants who attended the live session reached out directly to confirm they were able to successfully migrate their assets without any issues. Furthermore, the uploaded recording has already gathered over 95+ views on YouTube in the past 3 days demonstrating that many more community members across the ecosystem are actively engaging with the walkthrough and likely securing their funds.
If you missed the live event, you can follow the exact same steps via the full YouTube recording below.

Great work dear @Jeremiah !!!
Having the recording available is especially valuable, as it can continue to guide other SecondFi users who were affected and still need support with the migration.

If the data is available, do you have an estimate of how many participants successfully migrated their assets following the session? It would be great to understand the measurable impact of the meetup.

Hi @mwatsimulamo! I don’t have any document that collated participants details of how many migrated their assets successfully. But then I had feedbacks from 4 of the members who joined the Meetup that they were able to migrate their assets successfully. Also, looking at the number of engagement the video has gained in the past 2 days (90+ views on YouTube) shows that some other more community members find this lesson helpful and are able to follow the lesson to successfully migrate theirs as well.. I hope my response brings clarity? :blush:

Your response definitely brings more clarity, and I appreciate the additional context.

My comment was mainly to highlight how valuable it is to include measurable outcomes like these whenever possible. Knowing that at least 4 participants confirmed successful migrations, alongside the 90+ views on the recording, gives more context to the meetup’s reach and impact.

I think including such stats in future recaps can make the impact of these community activities even clearer.

Keep up the great work, Ambassador @Jeremiah :star_struck:

Initiative très précieuse, surtout en cette période de transition délicate. Des instructions claires pour identifier les canaux de migration officiels peuvent éviter aux utilisateurs d’être victimes d’escroqueries et de faux liens de récupération. Bravo à la communauté pour son soutien.
