Hi, at present I have 3 wallets set up in Daedalus and I stake from all 3. I want to continue to use Daedalus with a Ledger Nano X. I would like to confirm that I need a separate Ledger for each wallet which means I need to purchase 2 more. I want to be as secure as possible so if this is what I need to do then that is fine but if there is another option now or in the near future than I would love to know. Thank you!
Currently its not possible to use multiple wallets on your Ledger, however id say it should be possible in the future.
Cheers
Fabian

However you can have the same ledger for unlimited wallet restores.
-
Create a wallet with ledger (get new seed words)
-
Access that in Daedalus, send ada to it.
-
Reset ledger and start new - get new seed words, save them.
-
Access that in daedalus, it’s a different wallet. Send ada there.
Repeat again until you have the desired wallets all protected by your hardware wallet.
It is a little time consuming as you need to reset your ledger each time for new seed words. You can see all your wallets in daedalus and send ada to them without a ledger. However when you want to make a transaction from a certain wallet, you will need to know which seed words are protecting that specific wallet, to reset and restore your ledger using the seed words to gain control of those funds.
Time consuming, especially to set up, but it does protect all your different wallets with a single hardware wallet

Thank you for the creative solution… much appreciated.

There is also an easier way without resetting Ledger all the time. The feature is called “temporary passphrase”. It uses the 24 words, which are set once, plus a temporary passphrase, which is set in every session, to generate the set of keys. So you can assign one passphrase for every Daedalus wallet you want to use. The feature is described here on the Ledger support pages. It is also possible to assign a passphrase (but only one) to an alternative PIN.
But please pay attention: In order to recover the wallets, you likewise need the passphrase in addition to the 24 words, so make sure to back them up on paper too.

Thank you waldmops. Much appreciated!
Nice, I did not know this! Will look into it
I tried, but the Daedalus shows me the same old ledger x account when I try to add a new account and connect a ledger with a new passphrase. have you tried it?
It works if you delete the wallet in Daedalus first and then re-add it after starting it with the new passphrase.
This seems to be a bug in Daedalus. I wish the developers would focus more on fixing core functionality like this instead of tweaking pool rankings and the like.
Good morning ADAists 
I have a slightly different challenge but it´s related to using the Ledger X, so i put it here. Hope that fits!
My ADAs were staked right from the beginning via Ledger X through ADAlite.io. For upcoming projects i read more and more that only Yoroi and Deadalus wallets are supported, so i am rather uncertain if i can connect to Y or D with the same first on ADAlite initiated / seeded wallet through it without loosing any of those luvly ADAs.
If i can´t easily switch from ADAlite.io to Y or D [no new seed], the best way then would be the mentioned one from @Lgbeano aye?
Just to get it most saved, i would need to setup my Ledger X fresh [new seed], then download the Cardano app on Live Manager and then take that new one to Y or D.
Hopefully that would be the way.
Thanks in advance for helping me on that one!
Regards 
Edit: Just stumpled over ADAlite,io Twitter account where they are mentioning support of native tokens but with the expression “is going to support” … makes it quite more uncertain for me here 
Hi adapt,
You can connect your hardware wallet to any cardano wallet client that supports your hardware wallet. Both yoroi and daedalus do. Just have the cardano app selected and your nano connected to your device, go to yoroi and access hardware wallet, via shelley era.
You won’t lose anything, you can see the same wallet on multiple wallet clients.
Yoroi and daedalus support other native tokens also, you can see them in your wallet. To easily see them just go to send where you will see a drop down list to select the tokens you want to send

Thanks for the reply, i will check that one later! Those handling of mostly unknown terrain around native tokens, as minted on Cardano but rls via ETH, is still something i have to get more known to - besides a hole ADAverse that comes up in the next time.
If there is anything that can go wrong, i´ll take it - for sure. Even with the best videos, i already proven that with my first stake on ADAlite a little time ago.
Parallel i asked via Twitter directly ADAlite team, unfortunately already filled and sent the form for ADAX airdrop and now i have to wait for their feedback, cz i still dont know if ADAX is either supported by ADAlite. If not, i try to contact the team from ADAX to correct the wallet adress. As u see, i have a lucky hand for that kind of handling
Again,i thank you for your answer, makes it little more comfortable dealing with the situation!
Regards
