Question 2

How to connect a Ledger hardware wallet to Yoroi?

Accepted Answer

Before you start, make sure your devices are ready. Here are some key points to check:

You have the latest version of Yoroi. In principle, browser extensions are updated automatically but you can also update them manually in your browser's settings.
You have connected your device in Ledger Live and downloaded the Cardano app.
Your Ledger is up to date. To upgrade, you should update your firmware through Ledger Live first, then update the Cardano app.

At this point, close Ledger Live and make sure to keep it closed at all times when using Yoroi as it can conflict with Yoroi and result in having issues using your Ledger to manage your ADA.

Now, open Yoroi and go to Connect hardware wallet > Cardano > Ledger Hardware wallet.

Question 4

How to safely store my ADA?

Accepted Answer

With worldwide interest in blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies increasing at a fast pace, many newcomers are starting to learn about the industry and how to transact with cryptocurrencies, including Cardano ADA.

We have put together a checklist for new Cardano ADA users on how to do this with a few simple tips.

Self-custody and store your Cardano ADA in Yoroi or a hardware walletAfter acquiring Cardano ADA, it is best to always move it off an exchange or any third-party custodian and purely into your own control via an official Cardano wallet such as Yoroi.
If you keep your Cardano ADA on an exchange or with a third-party custodian, you can be susceptible to getting blocked from accessing your ADA and/or even a loss of your funds as you technically do not have complete control over your ADA.
Yoroi is compatible with hardware wallets such as Ledger and Trezor which allows you to connect Yoroi to safely store your Cardano ADA there.As there are many unofficial, fake versions of Yoroi and other wallets, please double check to confirm that you are downloading official versions only by doing a simple search online prior to downloading. Never rely on links posted by others on unofficial channels.
Trusted download links are posted on official websites such as Yoroi’s (https://yoroi-wallet.com).
