I understand how frustrating it can be when your NFT doesn't appear where you expect it. Let me help you troubleshoot this common issue with a few simple steps.
First, check if your NFT is hidden or marked as spam
Many wallets and marketplaces automatically filter NFTs they suspect might be spam:
- On OpenSea: Visit your profile and check the "Hidden" tab - newly airdropped or purchased NFTs are sometimes placed here automatically
- In MetaMask: Look for a "Hidden" or "Spam" section in your NFT tab
- In Coinbase Wallet: Check for filter settings that might hide certain tokens
- In Phantom: Look for hidden items in your collectibles section
Verify you're connected to the correct blockchain
Your NFT might be on a different network than what your wallet is showing:
- Open your wallet (MetaMask, Coinbase Wallet, Phantom, etc.)
- Check which network you're currently connected to
- Switch to the blockchain where your NFT was minted (Ethereum, Polygon, Solana, Base, etc.)
Import the NFT token contract
Some wallets require manually importing the token:
- Find your NFT's contract address (check your purchase confirmation or transaction details)
- In your wallet, look for "Import tokens" or "Import NFTs" option
- Enter the contract address, token ID, and other requested information
Check a blockchain explorer to verify ownership
Confirm your NFT exists on the blockchain:
- Visit the appropriate blockchain explorer:
- Ethereum/most EVM chains: etherscan.io or nftscan.com
- Solana: solscan.io or solana.nftscan.com
- Enter your wallet address and check the "NFT Transfers" or "Tokens" section
- Look for your specific NFT transaction to confirm it was delivered
If problems persist
If you've tried all these steps and still can't see your NFT:
- Wait at least 30 minutes - blockchain transactions can sometimes take time
- Check if the marketplace supports the blockchain your NFT is on
- Contact our support team with details about your NFT and wallet address
