How to claim your sol from Photon Trading wallet - Step by Step explanation

  1. To be able to claim from Photon on Sol you must already possess the Private Key of this wallet, which is only shown once to the user, upon Photon wallet creation!

This is clearly stated in Photon's documentation:

To ensure that we keep your account as secure as possible, the private key for your Photon trading wallet is only revealed to you only once. You'll need to use the slider to reveal the private key.

PLEASE NOTE: Your private key will be revealed ONLY ONCE at this step. Please take a moment to save your private key in a safe place before clicking "Continue."

The only chance to view the Private Key

We've questioned Photon's team directly and publicly on X about the issue, and if there was a way to recover the private key later on. This was their reply:
