Shiba Inu has announced an extension for its The Shib (magazine) NFT recovery process, giving collectors until September 23, 2025 to migrate their digital collectibles. This final extension provides extra time for those affected by the recent removal of email login functionality, which temporarily blocked access to the NFTs.
Key Points
- Deadline Extended: Shiba Inu NFT holders now have until September 23, 2025 to recover their magazine cover NFTs.
- How to Recover: Export your private key from the recovery portal and import it into a self-custodial wallet like MetaMask to regain full control.
- Security Reminder: Never share your private key; official Shiba Inu channels will never request it.
The recovery tool was initially created to allow users to regain access to magazine cover NFTs minted through email logins and transfer them safely to self-custodial wallets such as MetaMask. The original deadline of September 15 was extended to ensure all affected holders had ample time to secure their assets. After September 23, the tool will be permanently decommissioned.
Why the Recovery is Necessary
The update that disabled email logins inadvertently locked out users who had relied on that method to access their Shib Magazine cover NFTs. In response, Shiba Inu launched recovery.shib.io, a dedicated portal for users to bridge this gap and regain control of their digital collectibles.
Through this portal, users can export the private key linked to their email-generated wallet. Once exported, the key can be imported into a fully decentralized wallet like MetaMask, granting permanent access and full ownership of the NFTs.
Step-by-Step Recovery Process
- Visit recovery.shib.io and enter the email address used to mint your NFTs.
- Approve the login request sent to your email.
- Copy the private key displayed in the orange box.
- Import the key into your preferred self-custodial wallet (e.g., MetaMask → “Add account or wallet” → Import via private key).
- Your NFTs will now appear in your newly added account.
Security Precautions
Shiba Inu strongly advises all users to never share their private key. Official Shiba Inu channels or team members will never ask for your private key under any circumstances. This step is critical to prevent scams and ensure the safety of your digital assets.
With the extended deadline, collectors have one last chance to secure and control their Shib Magazine NFT collection. Failing to act before September 23 could result in permanent loss, as the recovery tool will be retired, leaving email-based wallets inaccessible.
