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
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.
