Hey guys,
I have some BTC on my Ledger Nano S and I want to link them for the Airdrop of Stellar Lumen.
However when I try to sign the message I get this response:
"Failed to Sign Message: Invalid index offset"
I have researched a bit and it seems to be an issue with Ledger Nano S right now.
Is there a reliable OFFLINE tool, which I can download, to sign messages from Bitcoin in general since I have the private keys, but don't want to insert my details into a website form?

Best regards

According to NIST and ECRYPT II, the cryptographic algorithms used in Bitcoin are expected to be strong until at least 2030. (After that, it will not be too difficult to transition to different algorithms.)

Yes, I checked it but it still doesn't work. Could it be because I use a macbook?

But that is also a problem, for that I would have to get the private key out of my Ledger Nano S which kind of defeats cold storage.
I tried it on windows again now and also the same error code. Is it currently not working for anyone to sign messages in Ledger nano S?
