About Celestia
Celestia’s been heating up all the chatrooms on the interchain, and for good reason! It's modular technology scales securely depending on user requirements, making it easy for anyone to launch their own blockchain.
Following the conclusion of its Genesis Drop, which celebrated early believers and contributors, nearly 200k addresses successfully claimed $TIA. If you were among these users, $TIA should already be visible in your wallet, alongside the full suite of network capabilities.
How to access & explore Celestia Mainnet
There are two ways to access the Celestia Mainnet:
- Using Leap Wallet: Leap is a non-custodial super wallet that supports Celestia Mainnet and 60 other Cosmos chains. Whether through Leap’s browser extension or mobile apps, you have access to a suite of features including in-wallet staking, IBC transfers, bridging, and governance. Leap’s universal support across all Cosmos dApps enables you to fully engage with apps that support $TIA.
- Using MetaMask: Connect with MetaMask via Leap’s web dashboard to manage your Celestia Mainnet tokens and access functionalities like Send, Bridge, & Stake. This integration is made possible through MetaMask Snaps, a Cosmos Snap built by Leap Wallet. While several Cosmos dApps support Leap's MetaMask Snaps for a seamless experience, the number of supported applications may be more limited compared to using Leap Wallet directly.

Why Celestia Wallet address generated using Leap Snaps is different from one generated using Mystic Snaps?
Hey! The Genesis Airdrop dApp allowed you to connect to MetaMask using either Leap Snap or Mystic Labs Snap.
If you'd used Mystic Labs Snap for the claim, the Celestia wallet address it would've generated is different from the one you'd see today using any of Leap Snaps, Leap Wallet or Keplr, all of which produce the same Celestia address from the same seed phrase.
If you'd used Leap's MetaMask Snap for the claim, the address you'd see today would be consistent with the one earlier.
To confirm which Snap you had previously used, navigate to your MetaMask wallet's Settings, select 'Snaps', and then check the 'Connected sites' section at the bottom of each installed Snap page.

You can refer to this guide on How to transfer TIA from Mystic Snaps address to Leap/Keplr Wallet?
Have you imported from MetaMask Snaps to Keplr using a private key instead of a seed phrase/secret phrase?
We recommend using seed phrase/secret phrase while importing from Snaps to Keplr/Leap Wallet. Importing using the Private key will generate a different address than the original one.
Are there variations in addresses generated using seed phrase/secret phrase v/s private keys?
MetaMask Snaps works with seed phrase of only the Primary wallet. Currently, Snaps works with seed phrases/secret phrases.
How Snaps will work with the Ledger connected to MetaMask?
If you connected a Ledger to MetaMask, and even if this Ledger wallet is the one eligible for Celestia airdrop, you will need to use the seed phrase of the first wallet in MetaMask to generate the corresponding Celestia address on Leap/Leap Snaps. If you try to connect the same Ledger directly to Leap, it will generate a different address for you.
