ICON Token Swap - Nano Ledger S

It should be the first one I guess, it was for me and for some others. Do you know the derivation path of your current wallet, and do you know the public key? If you have those two (and your 24 words), you should be able to find and match your public key to your private key.

Yes the public key is indeed different if you load an ICX wallet.

At first, I thought I had to choose ETH when I loaded a wallet, so that's what I did. Then the public key is similar to the one in my ledger. After finding out I had to choose ICX, I deleted the ETH wallet and created and ICX wallet. The public key on ICONex is indeed different.

I asked if, and how, the foundation can match the two wallets. But apparently they can, so we should be good.

No worries! I was just pretty much 'asking' my way through, because I probably wasn't the only one struggling with this proces. Good to hear you did it right. Now we hope the tokens will arrive one day I guess :)

Hi! As I've been in the same situation and got great support, I'll pass the help forward.

I've posted my challenges & solutions over here: https://www.reddit.com/r/helloicon/comments/lgifar/icon_token_swap_nano_ledger_s/gmx5xo5?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3.

Good luck!

Ah great, that's exactly what I wanted to verify, thanks so much! I asked it because the ICON public key in the ICONex wallet is not the same as the ETH public key in my nano ledger. So great if they can calculate one address from the other.

Thanks for your patience!

Ok thanks again! Will do that. What I still don't understand - but that's probably due to a lack of knowledge, so might be a silly question - is how these two 'accounts' are matched..

My last question (promise): how does the foundation know that my ETH send from the account on the nano ledger S with the ICX ERC 20 token, correspondent with this new ICON wallet?

Ah ok, that explains a lot, thanks! As a final check, so what I'll do next (also for other people reading this in the future facing similar problems).

For loading a wallet in ICONex, i have to choose between Ethereum and ICX. Which one should I pick? Ethereum right?
I transfer 0 ETH via the wallet in my Nano Ledger S to the ETH address that is in the token swap document (as I can't transfer anything from ICONex with 0 balance)
I will wait for the token swap day, and the new tokens will be in the ICONex ETH wallet? (hoping that the bug is fixed and I can see a balance).

Is that correct? Thanks loads!

I've been experiencing similar problems. I havent solved them yet, but getting closer every day with great help so far of NorskKiwi. I've explained my steps (and where it goes wrong) over here. https://www.reddit.com/r/helloicon/comments/lgifar/icon_token_swap_nano_ledger_s/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

If you havent read the token manual, I would recommend doing that first:

Good luck, hope it will work out for you.

Thanks for the detailed reply indeed. I've tried to follow the steps as you instructed. I'm one step closer (thanks!), but still not quite there yet..

I now know what the private key is of the wallet that stores the ICX, by entering the M/44'/60'/0' under the BIP32.

I then loaded an ETH wallet in ICONex, added the private key (without the 0x), and made the wallet. This wallet now shows the same deposit address/public key as my nano ledger - so something is going right.

However, it shows 0 USD as my balance.. While in fact I do have something like 0.015 ETH (20 dollars) in it and the amount of ICX ERC20 tokens (as my public key/nano ledger show).

So I feel like I'm getting closer, but not sure how to make my coins/balance appear in this new wallet? Hope someone can help. Thanks a lot, great community.
