Unable to connect Brave Rewards to new Solana wallet – unexpected error

Title: Unable to connect Brave Rewards to new Solana wallet – unexpected error

Hi,

I’m trying to connect Brave Rewards for the first time to a newly created Solana self-custody wallet.

I get this error after going through the connection process:

“Something went wrong. There was an unexpected error and we weren’t able to finalize the connection.”

Details:

  • The Solana wallet/address is brand new and has never been connected to Brave Rewards before.
  • I currently have about 1.745 USD worth of SOL in the wallet. 0.017
  • Brave was freshly installed.
  • I completely disabled my VPN.
  • I tried on Android and Linux desktop.
  • The exact same error occurs on both devices.
  • The connection process gets through the signing/approval stage, but fails when finalizing the connection.
  • I’m located in Argentina.

Could someone please check whether there is an issue with my Rewards profile or the Solana connection on Brave’s backend?

Thanks.
