Ledger Setup

A Ledger Device is a hardware wallet that is considered one of the most secure ways to store your digital assets. Ledger uses an offline, or cold storage, method of generating private keys, making it a preferred method for many crypto users. This guide will help you connect your Ledger device to a Casper account using the cspr.live block explorer to send and receive CSPR tokens.

4. Fill in the details for the transfer.

5. Click on the Next button.
6. On the next page, click Confirm and transfer.

1. On the Sign transaction page, click on the Sign with Ledger button.

8. Your Ledger hardware wallet will present you with transfer details. Verify the transfer details (txn hash, chain ID, source account, fee, target, and amount).

Verify the transaction on your Ledger device

Press the right button on your Ledger Device to review the transaction details (Amount and Address) until you see "Approve".

1. Verify the txn hash - make sure it matches the value displayed on cspr.live.

The txn hash value continues on a second screen.

2. The next page displays transaction type - for CSPR transfers, that will be Token transfer.

3. Verify the chain ID, which identifies the network on which you want to send the transaction.

4. Verify the account, which is the public key of the account that initiated the transaction.

The account value continues on a second screen.

5. Verify the fee. For CSPR token transfers, that value should be constant and equal to 10 000 motes = 0.00001 CSPR.

6. Verify target - NOTE this IS NOT a public key of the recipient but the hash of that key. Compare the public key with the value in the block explorer which shows you two fields for the recipient public key and target.

The target value continues on a second screen.

7. Verify the amount you want to transfer.

8. If you approve the transaction, click both buttons on the Ledger device.

After approving the transaction with your Ledger hardware wallet, the cspr.live block explorer will display a "Transfer completed" page.
