Xverse allows you to connect hardware wallets like Ledger and Keystone so you can securely manage your assets, including Bitcoin, Ordinals, Runes, Stacks, and Starknet.
Before You Start
Hardware wallet support is currently available on the Xverse browser extension only.
Make sure your device is:
- Connected to your computer
- Unlocked
- Updated to the latest firmware
Use Google Chrome for the best experience
Step 1: Start Hardware Wallet Setup
In the Xverse extension, go to Account (in the top left corner) > select Add hardware wallet account. This will direct you to the Connect Hardware Wallet page and choose your hardware device.
Xverse will begin scanning for your device. Make sure your device is properly connected and unlocked.
Step 2: Connect Your Device
Follow the on-screen instructions Confirm connection on your hardware wallet if prompted
If your device is not detected, try reconnecting it or refreshing the page.
Troubleshooting: Device Not Connecting
- Ensure your hardware wallet device is properly connected and unlocked.
- Check that your hardware wallet firmware is updated to the latest version.
- Make sure your Bitcoin/Starknet/Stacks App on Ledger is up-to-date and open during the connection process.
- Use Chrome as your browser for Xverse, and confirm that your Xverse extension is updated to the latest version.
- Avoid using multiple apps (e.g. Ledger Live + Xverse) with the same device at the same time
Step 3: Select Bitcoin Layers
Choose the assets you want to manage:
Depending on the assets selected:
- Open the Bitcoin app on your Ledger for BTC/Ordinals/Runes
- Open the Stacks app for STX
- Open the Starknet app for Starknet
Step 4: Select Accounts to Add
With the new connection flow, you can add up to 10 hardware wallet accounts.
Xverse will scan and display accounts in both Legacy derivation path (previous Xverse supported path for Ledger accounts) and Standard derivation path (similar to Ledger Live).
