Using the Wormhole Portal bridge, users can seamlessly move assets from different chains onto Evmos to deploy into Tashi. When using Portal Bridge to move assets onto Tashi, Evmos automatically converts them to ERC-20 standard, which is not visible in your Keplr wallet.. For these assets to be visible on your Meta Mask wallet users can import their Keplr Wallet onto their existing Metamask Wallet.
Note: The following steps assume you have a Keplr wallet with a mnemonic seed phrase and an existing MetaMask wallet with an Account that you wish to import.
Before starting the process, ensure you have noted down the private key for your existing MetaMask, we will refer to this as Account 1. This key will be needed to regain access to your original wallet.
To create a fresh wallet, uninstall MetaMask from your browser or mobile device.
Reinstall MetaMask from your browser extension store or mobile app store.
Launch MetaMask and create a new wallet.
Select the option to import a wallet using a seed phrase.
Enter the mnemonic seed phrase provided by Keplr when prompted. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the setup.
With the Keplr wallet now integrated into MetaMask, locate the "Account" section in MetaMask.
Click on "Import Account" or a similar option.
Enter the private key of your existing MetaMask Account 1 (the one you noted down in Step 1).
Confirm the import process.

Ensure that both your Keplr wallet and the original MetaMask Account 1 (now imported as Account 2 or 3) are visible in your MetaMask wallet.
Double-check the balances and transactions for each account to confirm their accuracy.
You have successfully imported your Keplr wallet onto your existing MetaMask wallet, incorporating your original MetaMask Account 1. Now, you can manage both wallets seamlessly within the MetaMask interface.
Note: Be cautious with your private keys and seed phrases. Keep them secure and never share them with anyone. Additionally, this process may vary slightly based on updates to MetaMask or Keplr; refer to their respective documentation for the most current instructions.
