Ledger Accounts (Kadena)

How to add a Ledger account to your Linx Wallet

From the Homescreen tap your currently selected account, or go to settings on the bottom right and click 'My Wallets'.

Click the button at the bottom to add a wallet.

Click on 'Import from Ledger'.

Now turn on your ledger, login and open the kadena app. Make sure it shows 'Kadena Ready' on the ledger screen, if you see something else, please update the ledger through Ledger Live.

Click 'Next' inside Linx Wallet and the wallet will try to connect to your Ledger device over bluetooth. Your phone will ask you the first to allow Linx Wallet to access your bluetooth.

Once connected, click 'Next' again

If you only have 1 account on your ledger, just click the button at the bottom 'Get Account from Ledger'. If you have (or want to have) multiple Kadena accounts on your ledger, click the 'Advanced' button and enter the account index on your ledger. (For example your default account lives on index 0, the next account on index 1 etc. These indexes are fixed, meaning you will always get the same account for index 1 for example.)

Now Linx Wallet will show you the account it found. If you click import, the account is added to your wallet and you can now use it to Transfer, Swap, connect with Dapps through WalletConnect and connect it to Dapps through the in-app Dapp browser in the 'Collection' tab.

You can keep every token that lives on the Kadena chain on your Ledger account.

Please be aware that Linx Wallet does not have access to any secure data of your ledger device, this stays on your Ledger. This means, for every type of transaction (Swap, Transfer, WalletConnect etc) you will have to approve the transaction(s) on your ledger device.

How to transfer funds, swap or use WalletConnect from your Ledger Account

A transfer from your Ledger account is not different than a transfer from a 'normal' account, but you will have to approve each transaction on your Ledger Device.

Every transaction that needs to be signed will show you a preview of the transaction, this is for a transfer, swap, walletconnect or in-app dapp transaction.

Make sure you have your Ledger turned on and opened the Kadena app on the device. Then click the button at the bottom of Linx Wallet 'Confirm and send'. You will be taken through the Ledger Signing process now and if there are multiple transactions it will show you that with an indicator (1/2 for 1 of 2 transactions for example). I will subsequently try to connect to your Ledger, send the transaction to your Ledger and then ask you to review your transaction on your Ledger device. (you have 30 seconds to do this, else the transaction will fail and you need to 'approve' again. Once approved on your Ledger device, the Wallet will continue with the next transaction or send the signed transaction(s) to the Kadena network and monitor its status in 'pending transactions'.
