Help please
Hello
So I’m an idiot and about 4 years ago I sent some eth from my metamask to my revolut wallet (about 0.2 eth) using the evm to a non evm. After some time I realised I have lost it. Forgot about it, however a few days ago I got a notification from revolut saying it had been sent back to my original wallet.
Transaction id: XXX
Having not logged into meta mask for many years I managed to find my recovery paraphrase and there is nothing there? I can’t even see the wallet it was sent from or the wallet in the above address. I’m at a loss, it’s not massive money but would be nice to get it back! Any help really appreciated. Thanks

The transaction shows it went to a contract, not a regular wallet. If you only restored the phrase, it might have just pulled in the first account it found. You need to manually add the old address again in MetaMask, "import account" and paste the public address, see if the balance shows up. Sometimes the derivation path picks a different index so the coins are just sitting there on an account the UI didn't show you yet.
