Claim Hex with Ledger
First off, I’m not that technical of a guy. I just tinkered for several hours until I got this to work. I used this process for 3 bitcoin addresses I have on ledger and it worked each time. If this helps you then help me by using my link to claim your hex, you get an extra 10% bonus I also get a bonus we all win. Ok here goes my process. You will need your ledger of course, a text editor and the old ledger wallet bitcoin chrome extension. The new ledger live app does not have a function to sign transactions. If you don’t have this extension already installed it won’t work. I didn’t find it on the chrome store anymore even when using the ID number. I did however see some shady ledger extensions on the chrome store with misspelled words. Please don’t use any of those unless you like losing money. If you don’t have an old ledger wallet bitcoin chrome extension you may need to download the electrum wallet and follow similar steps. FYI at this point I do not recommend buying any hex with Eth but you should free claim if you can. You never know what the future holds.
Step 1: Open the ledger wallet bitcoin extension app and connect your ledger. (Sometimes I had to exit and re-enter the bitcoin app on my physical ledger a couple of times to get the app to connect). You will be asked to choose bitcoin or bitcoin cash. Choose bitcoin of course then choose segwit.
Step 2: Click on the bitcoin account you want to claim then click on see all operations. Depending on how active your account is you may have several operations listed.
Step 3: Click on an operation to pull up the operation detail. At this point make sure your text editor is open. You will now see the “From” and “To” sections. Highlight all of the “To” addresses copy and paste them into the text editor. You may only have one address or you may have
Multiple. DELETE all addresses that do not begin with a 3.
Step 4: If you had multiple “To” addresses under your operation detail, now comes the time consuming part. Click on settings, then tools, then sign message. Click on address under sign message. Now in the search field copy and paste an address from your text editor list into the search field. If it’s an invalid address it should say “No results match”. Delete that address from your list and repeat the process with another address until you find an address that returns a match. (One of my accounts had 87 address. It took 10-15 mins, not to bad, but still annoying. If anyone has a better process please share to help others out.)
Step 4: Shameless shill….. use my link which will take you to hex.win. Then click on the link go.hex.winn. Click the claim tab. Enter the valid bitcoin address from your text editor list into the bitcoin address field then click claim this address.
Step 5: Click the copy icon to copy the message under the “please sign this message with your Bitcoin address” field. Go back to sign message in your ledger wallet bitcoin chrome extension. Make sure you have the valid address you found selected and then paste the message in the message box and click sign. Confirm sign message on your ledger device.
Step 6: Highlight and Copy everything between ----BEGIN SIGNATURE---- and ---END BITCOIN SIGNED MESSAGE---. Then paste this into the signature field on go.hex claim page and submit. Congratulations you’re done.
Tip: If for some reason you run into an error message in the ledger wallet bitcoin app. Make sure your nano ledger is unlocked. You many need to exit the app on ledger then re-open it or even close app extension and disconnect ledger and reopen everything. This happened to me and it worked.
