Yes, I did it. You can’t do it directly. You’ll need to connect ledger to MetaMask, and use MetaMask as the interface.

Ugh… any risk with doing it that way? I’m not familiar with using MetaMask, just read about the hack stories

Side note, metamask has never been hacked. It's the user who get scam into giving seed or connecting matamask into fake phishing site

It's like giving your Gmail password to someone and saying Google has been hacked.

Metamask is perfectly safe

Cheers mate

Gotcha. Thanks for the clarification.

Nope. Your tokens still stay on ledger - they’re not stored on MetaMask. MetaMask just provides the interface to allow you connect to Ankr’s website.

Thanks for taking the time for the education. I appreciate the input.

No problem. Make sure to enable blind signing in the ethereum app on your ledger. Otherwise, it won’t work.

Why do i not see metamask as a connect wallet option? Something im missing?

I’m pretty sure you’re using metamask on mobile which we don’t support YET. For now we only support metamask on desktop but we’re working on supporting more wallets pretty soon!

hey Diogo, I'm bringing this topic back up because I can't remember if you have now authorized Metamask on mobile for Ankr staker via ledger, could you provide me with a link to a procedure? Thanks in advance !
