Title: Nano ledger s problem with electrum
Post by: stefantt on December 03, 2017, 03:56:12 AM
Okay so I purchased a Nano ledger s ;D
So I wanted to import my seed from electrum to the ledger so I can claim my BCC.
But now I see the my electrum wallet has a 13 word seed and my ledger wallet only supports 12-18-24 word seed.
Anyone have a Idea how I can solve this issue?

You can't import an Electrum wallet into Ledger.

Instead, download Electron Cash[1] (Electrum fork for Bitcoin Cash) and use it to import your Electrum wallet seed and send your BCH to your Ledger Nano S Bitcoin Cash address.
