Using my Phantom wallet, I was trying to convert USDC to a shitcoin on Raydium. It kept failing. 

Feeling FOMO, I reach into my web3 fren network and someone recommends Photon. 

I sign up, skip saving my seed phrase, and send the USDC to the addy

  1/3

Two major mistakes

1) Thought i could get the seed phrase later on again in the app (like metamask or phantom). FOMO makes ppl dumb

- turns out you can’t

2) I didnt follow instructions. You aren’t allowed to send USDC to Photon. Must be sol (or eth)

2/3

I could login to Phantom with my Photon wallet if i knew my Photon seed phrase. This would allow me to send the USDC anywhere I wanted.

I think my best best now is to see if there are USDC pairs on Photon, and then sell them for SOL, then use the transfer funds option to withdraw it to my sign up wallet

Ideas?
