  • USB, HID

Adding Ledger Account

Account icon → setting icon → Add account → Create a new ledger account → Account name → HD path setting → Done

HD path setting

Up to 101 Ledger accounts and wallets can be derived from a single set of mnemonics in a Ledger by assigning any number smaller than 101 to HD paths when creating a Ledger account.

Connecting Ledger

Select the new Ledger account to connect on home screen.

Cosmos Networks

Cosmostation extension wallet supports Cosmos SDK chain wallets derived from HD paths 44'/118'/0'/0/n. Connecting to any Cosmos SDK chain with a Ledger automatically derives all the Cosmos SDK chain wallets supported by a Ledger account.

EVM Networks

Cosmostation extension wallet supports EVM wallets derived from HD paths 44'/60'/0'/0/n. Connecting to any EVM network with a Ledger automatically derives all the EVM network wallets supported by a Ledger account.

Not Supported Networks

44'/118'/0'/0/n is a generic HD path for Cosmos SDK chains, but some networks use custom HD paths assigned by their network foundations. For example, a Cosmos SDK chain Crypto.org’s official HD path used by the foundation and Ledger (opens in a new tab) is 44'/394'/0'/0/n.

In an effort to sync with the network foundations and Ledger, Cosmostation extension wallet derives wallets solely from HD paths used by the foundations and Ledger. Instead of deriving all the Cosmos SDK chain wallets from 44'/118'/0'/0/n path, Cosmostation only supports the wallets of Cosmos SDK chains whose official HD path is 44'/118'/0'/0/n for now.

Custom HD path wallets will be supported in future updates.
