I recently exported the private key for my Robinhood Chain wallet from the Fomo trading app, which I believe uses Privy for its wallet infrastructure, and imported the wallet into MetaMask.

I then sent ETH from another MetaMask wallet to Robinhood, converted it to ETH on Robinhood Chain, and sent that ETH to the wallet I had imported from Fomo into MetaMask. However, when the transaction arrived, I received WETH instead of native ETH.

I tried unwrapping the WETH to ETH on Robinhood Chain. For a few seconds, I could see the native ETH balance in my wallet, but it then appeared to automatically convert back into WETH.

No matter what I try, any ETH in this wallet seems to automatically get wrapped into WETH. Does anyone know why this might be happening or what I’m doing wrong?
