Hardware Wallet Support on BlockWallet

Ever since the launch of BlockWallet, hardware wallet support has been the missing piece and our top priority. We've completed tons of testing for the past few months to deliver a flawless release, testing internally with our team, then transitioning to a beta program with our community. The result is a battle-tested integration that we’re so excited for you to experience. It's time to make the switch!

Currently we support Ledger and Trezor hardware wallets and plan to integrate Keystone in the near future.

How to connect your hardware device
