Deleting Your OpenSea Account

OpenSea is an NFT marketplace that operates in a decentralized environment. Contacting others to check their NFT collections is effortless on the website.

What’s more, you can easily find a comment about someone saying that the commissions and security measures of the website are among the best out there.

But nothing is perfect, not even the biggest NFT marketplace in the world.

We are talking about a fairly new platform, and some bugs, such as the “ Unlock Currency on OpenSea,” might appear out of nowhere.

Can You Delete Opensea Account?

There isn’t a feature to directly delete OpenSea account. Nonetheless, you can indeed request the deletion of your data if you please.

In the typical sense of words, you don’t have a “user” account - your OpenSea account lives in your Ethereum address.

Of course, your email, username, profile picture, and more info, are stored on the website when you update it.

On OpenSea’s Privacy website, you can see that they “cannot or delete any information stored on a blockchain.” Consequently, you have two alternatives here:

  • Contacting support team and asking them to delete your data;
  • Manually erasing your info and abandoning your account.

You must just tap on the “delete collection” mark on the platform. Learn more about this matter here: Delete NFT Collection OpenSea.

How to Delete OpenSea Account Information

Now you know it - you either edit your data and erase it from the site, or you contact OpenSea with a subject line that says that you want to delete your profile.

In any case, we will show you how to do both. Continue reading so you can get precise information on how to do this.

Step 1: Open Your Account Settings Page

Log in to OpenSea (preferably on your web browser) and click on your account’s menu.

There, the account settings page will open. From this page, you can Change Username on OpenSea, set up your account’s biography, and more.

Step 2: Manually Delete Your Data

Now, proceed to erase everything related to your personal info: username, bio, cover banner, and more.

You might as well change your set email address to one you don’t use at all - that will completely do the trick.

Now, log out from OpenSea and unlink your wallet. Since you cannot delete a crypto wallet, you are just abandoning the connection your wallet had with the platform.

With your wallet disconnected and your data entirely erased from the platform, your profile won’t have anything else to do with you from now on.

Pro Tip: You can Change Wallet on OpenSea by using the email address associated with your main profile.

Alternatively: Send an Email to OpenSea Support

Alternatively, you can request that OpenSea delete your account manually.

This OpenSea Delete alternative might take a while, but it will be efficient.

Although some users have mentioned that emailing OpenSea with the subject line “delete my personal data,” we recommend you follow these steps instead:

  • Log in to OpenSea and find the support page;
  • Access OpenSea Support Form. Select “My Account,” and then under the section that says “What Can We Help With?,” select “Deleting Account;”
  • Elaborate on your decision and complete all the info requested by the form. Finally, click on “Submit.”

This method has worked in the past for many OpenSea account holders, but it usually takes a while.

Just remember that since OpenSea hardly saves your data (there isn’t any proof of identity required), changing your profile info and abandoning your account is more than enough.
