Title: Is Legder NANO X SAFE??
Post by: alexey14 on January 31, 2021, 01:49:24 PM
I have a very imported question?
Nano X charge you about 20 XRP to active your wallet and My question IS If they have no access to your private key How they can take 20 XRP from your wallet???

Who've you sent 20 xrp to and why? If it was ledger surely they'd have to explain why they wanted you to send the funds?

Most hardware wallets don't allow you to send funds from them without confirming the transfer.

1. The 20 XRP "wallet activation" thing that you can't withdraw from a wallet is implemented in the XRP protocol itself by Ripple Labs, it's not something that Ledger Labs did. The 20 XRP thing is literally a think with any other XRP non-custodial wallet.

2. Ledger Labs, the company itself, doesn't have access to your private keys.

what is your problem so that the nano ledger wallet asks for 20 XRP? I am a nano ledger user since 2018 without experiencing any problems and there has never been a request to transfer 20 XRP to date. You have to be more vigilant on the incident. investigate deeper and do not believe it before doing further investigation

It is not only the Ledger Nano X that asks for 20 XRP. It is all of the XRP wallets that you'll use. I think people who are conservative with the fee are thinking that it's quite expensive.
That will be the payment for the activation that you cannot refund forever whether it's on Ledger or any other XRP wallet.

I don't understand the last part of your statement. OP is new to this 20 XRP thing so the question was raised.

There was actually no problem with OP and just needs some clarification so stay calm lol. Maybe you are a Ledger user but have no experience yet installing the XRP app on your Ledger device. A new XRP address costs 20 XRP.

If you want to make use of any noncustodial wallet that support ripple, you will need to have 20 ripple in the ripple wallet, it is called ripple reserve, it will be there in the wallet forever, you will not be able to transfer it to any other wallet. This is just the norm of a centralized coin called ripple while such can not be implemented on decentralized coin like bitcoin.
