The private key for a Ledger-created Daedalus/Adalite wallet is hidden in the Ledger-device and the Ledger seed is not identical to the seed that I would need to restore this Daedalus/Adalite wallet without a Ledger-device. You can’t restore a Daedalus-Ledger-created wallet without having a Ledger-…

This is great. Could you please forward your solution to the Daedalus developers that they may add an option to the “Restore A Wallet”-dialog with the title “Restore from a Ledger seed”? This must be added to next Daedalus release and or to AdaLite/Yoroi. I’m just an end user and not a developer, a…

[image] bwbush: Use the aforementioned script at < https://repl.it/repls/EvenFairInformation#index.js > to compute the root private key. ( FYI: I plan to rewrite the script in Haskell, and will post a link here someday. ) FYI: Here is the link to Haskell code that computes the Ledger Nano X ro…

Does anybody on here know if this issue with the ledger and Cardano app was resolved? Basically Cardano has a custom way of deriving the root private key from a recovery phrase but Ledger instead uses the standard that other cryptocurrencies follow meaning you have to enter your recovery phrase int…

[image] Alex85: Does anybody on here know if this issue with the ledger and Cardano app was resolved? It’s not really an issue, something that someone wants to have resolved. It is well-known that Ledger and software wallet apps use different methods of deriving the master key and I’m not awa…

I totally understand the security of a ledger hardware wallet and protecting the private keys and would never advise anyone to enter there recovery phrase into a software wallet online. My reasoning behind the question is purely hypothetical. If for instance say ledger went out of business and there…

[image] Alex85: My reasoning behind the question is purely hypothetical. If for instance say ledger went out of business and there was very few hardware devices left and your ledger was damaged for some reason the question is this. In this hypothetical scenario, I’m sure there will be a lot o…

Yeah that’s fair enough and I suppose you’re right. I’m sure there would be plenty of devs implementing it within weeks if that happened :laughing: Thanks for the quick response

If I ever come to extending my seed recovery tool to a complete wallet app/client, I might be inclined to add that. For seed recovery, you definitely want it, anyway. And it’s only a couple of lines of code. The Icarus master key derivation I already have there are six lines (and 26 lines of docum…

[image] Alex85: No other crypto has this issue with a ledger recovery phrase only ADA This is the point. End users will loose trust in ADA, if a seed phrase does not lead to the same wallet, no matter, which hardware/software wallet you are using to recover a wallet. Always! To my knowledge …

I have never used another cryptocurrency and certainly did not expect Ledger phrases to work in software wallet apps. :man_shrugging: (They should – almost – never be put in there, anyway.) Your thinking is understandable on the first glance. But if you consider the scenario where you have an acc…
