Migrate tokens, NFTs and tez

  2. Send Tokens to your new address. Select each token you own from the right panel and then on the send tab and enter your new hardware wallet address in the recipient field.

  3. Send your NFTs to your new address. Select the NFT gallery tab, select your NFT and then on the send tab enter your new hardware wallet address in the recipient field. If you have NFTs on OBJKT you can use their site to send NFTs you own to any new address as well.

  4. Send your Tez to your new address. Select “Manager Address” on the right panel to navigate back home. Select the send tab and enter your new hardware wallet address in the recipient field. Select “use max” when sending these funds.

**Start with sending your tokens and NFTs to this new address so that you have enough gas funds later to send your funds.
