Recover Aave sent via BSC to Ledger Nano S

I wanted to send Aave from Binance to my Ledger Nano S, but sent it vis BSC by mistake. How can I recover my tokens? Can somebody please help me?

Hi @rdamgaard77 Connecting MetaMask to Binance Smart Chain :point_down:

Open page https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/aave/ and click on fox :fox_face:

Sorry, did you get my message below, Luigi?

Could I talk to a real person please?

I’m real person :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: hehe

Hi Luigi,

I already did all this (see photos attached):

I already did:

- Create a Metamask wallet.

*- connect my Metamask instance to BSC (“Custom RPC”)

*- add Aave manually with contract adress following this

BUT!

My Metamask balance shows 0 Aave and 0 BNB despite a succesful transaction, so I have nothing to send back to Binance.

Please see 3 attachments. Tell my if you need additional details. And please help.

Regards

Rune

Hmm :thinking: and MetaMask wallet shows the correct ETH address?

You must select the correct address.

Thanks for helping me out, I really appreciate it. It’s quite a lot om money for me.
Thanks Luigi.
Yes, the adress is the right one for my Ethereum wallet on my Ledger Nano S.
I have read about others who had trouble with the balance showing ZERO. (is there no way we can exchange screen shots and the like, that would be convienient)

Send me your ETH address :slightly_smiling_face:

eth adress

Try uploading a picture here https://imgbb.com/upload and send me a link

Thanks Luigi here it is: 0x200fC63b991D39d001F411a0d800Cd321e1Cf88B
I would like to send you a link with something that might give a clue to the problem, but I can’t send links thru this messeging system, can I?

Want to send you screen shots and more but it keeps saying, ‘Sorry, you can’t include links in your post’

YES :grinning: It’s strict here…

Shows you 0 BNB? :thinking: and you have 0.0120496 BNB hmm

My next idea :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: try Binance Extension Wallet + Ledger Nano S

But in Metamask, next to the AAVE record it says: “We had trouble loading your token balances.” As if there is indeed a balance??

Another place on the internet I found this:

Are my messages still going thru?

YES :upside_down_face: I see them

Try Binance Extension Wallet + Ledger Nano S

You have to see your BNB

I could use some more Support. You mentioned 'try Binance Extension Wallet + Ledger Nano S". What do you mean exactly by this? Is this another way to recover the tokens? Or a way to get the balance to not show 0?

Try Chrome + Binance Extension Wallet + Ledger:

Maybe it will work better :slightly_smiling_face:
