UniversalKit request: Ledger

[bbbeeeee]

It would be really helpful to see how one could integrate Ledger, and other hardware wallets, whether as part of UniversalKit or just as a tutorial to start.

While Ledger can be used through wallets like XDEFI to sign, having native support can enable more users who are more comfortable using Ledger more purely. It'd be great to investigate more to see if it's possible to add -- especially signing from the Bitcoin side.

If I understand correctly, the request is to be able to sign transaction using Ledger directly without an extension wallet.

From what I can tell, nobody is doing that. Hardware Ledger stores a key and is capable of signing, but you need to tell it what to sign.

If you look at wallet connector libs like Dynamic, RainbowKit, they support Ledger Live, which is a mobile and desktop app that essentially acts as a software wallet for the Ledger hardware.

Ok, apparently, ThorSwap connects to Ledger directly. I'll look into this.
