Hello tried sending mine keeps saying checking account info what should do
Hello. I wrongly sent VET from binance to ledger main wallet address. How can I recover them?
And where do I see my coins on my Ledger device? I don´t get it.
Great Video, how do you connect the Sync app with VechainThor wallet on your cel?
why did you change the sittings?
Do you vtho on sync just by holding? I can't seem to transfer my vtho into ledger and i don't want my vet stuck there cus I don't have vtho
How do you deposit from vechain manager to binance?
Where di I find the recipient Adress fck it. ========
I have 121 vtho but sync wallet kept saying insufficient vtho revert? Maximum requirement is 42 vtho so I am being held hostage here. Please let me know how much vtho do I need to accumulate in order go move my Vet coinz?
You are a wizard! ♂️
I have VET in my wallet, I can confirm this by using the ‘Manager App’. It neglects to show how many VET I have. just my equity?
Whilst attempting a transfer to an exchange my ‘TX’ transfer is unsuccessful and asks me to “retry” . Can you please shed some light on why this may be occurring?
I think I need a hearing aid.
Please tell me how to withdraw VTHO ?
Where do I find the recipient address?
Hey crypto dad, can you help me? Where do you get the recipient address for the transfer to the ledger?
When I navigate to the app it's like ledger disconnects. Vechain sync goes to the first step. connecting. until I go out of vechain app.
I don't get it, from where did you get the recipient address? I now only have VETs in my local wallet. So how do I transfer it to the Ledger wallet, and then eventually to Ledger X ??
Can anyone assist me please. I’m testing the wallet via the ledger and attempting to send back to binance US wallet; however the status continues to fail and states I have “insufficient energy”. I assume it’s referring to the VTHO as the insufficient energy. Before I move my coins to the wallet, I want to ensure I’ll be able to send to binance. Do I need to purchase vtho to complete the transaction. Am I doing something wrong? After reading some other comments, I understand it takes time for VTHO to generate, every ten seconds or so. Approximately how long will it take to generate enough VTHO for a 50,000 VET transaction?
Dude ,where the hell do you find the adress from the ledger . You’re not showing it you just paste the adress but where do you get it from. ,please help!
Hello, hope you can help me. I downloaded the Sync app and synced it with my ledger nano s but i saved my funds in the wrong wallet, they are currently in the Local wallet and I've tried to send the funds to my ledger or back to the exchange and its just not allowing me to. A message keeps coming up saying insufficient power and I press more rocket power and its still not allowing the transfer.
Как перевести vechain на ledger
Latest news about Bitcoin and all cryptocurrencies. Your daily crypto news habit.

Ledger support for VeChain hit the market this afternoon in my time zone, and I just went through the entire process. There’s been tons of questions thrown around about how it’s done exactly — that, in combination with the time-sensitivity of X Node binding, has lead to more than a few panics from VeChain fans that want to preserve their well-earned X Nodes as loyal, early enthusiasts.
I feel like I’m now trained enough to diffuse a bomb. Anyway, here’s a detailed guide on how to set up an X Node with the Nano Ledger app!
- Install the VEN application onto your Ledger
- Access Your Wallet Via Desktop App
- Add Your Address To Your Mobile App
- Bind the X Node
- (Optional) Swap VEN for VET and Transfer To Your X Node
What you’ll need:
- A Ledger Nano S
- A mobile device with the official VeChain mobile app installed
- A computer
- Optional: an L Bank account (affiliate link).
1. Install the VEN Application
To do this, first you’ll need to install Ledger Live if you haven’t already. Once you open it, you’ll first need to make sure that both your Ledger and your Ledger Live are up-to-date. In order to do that, click on the Settings icon in the top right side of the program.

Within Settings, go to About. It should have your Version info. If it isn’t at least Version 1.1.4, then you’ll need to update your Ledger Live software because Version 1.1.4 has VET wallet support. Similarly, you’ll have to update your Ledger firmware as well — should be 1.4.2 or above.
NOTE: If your Ledger is giving you an error about lack of space while it tries to install the firmware, you can delete your other blockchain apps on the ledger to make room for the firmware update. Deleting the apps will not delete you wallet, you can always restore it and get your wallet back. For example, if you have 1 BTC in your existing Ledger wallet and you delete the BTC app on your device, once you reinstall it, you will see the 1 BTC again on your device and will be able to access/move it. So don’t worry about deleting the apps.
Once that’s up-to-date, open up your Ledger Live again if it had to restart. After you open it again, go into the Manager tab and search for VeChain. The VeChain wallet should appear; click Install.

2. Accessing Your Wallet
After you’ve installed it, open up the VeChain app on your Ledger device, and head over to https://vault.veforge.com/ and you should see the following screen:

Bookmark this website, it is where you’ll go to be able to access your VET wallets.
NOTE: If you go on the website and it gives you the text “ Unlock your Ledger and Open the VeChain App to get started” then you have to first open up the VeChain app on your ledger. You do this by clicking both buttons on your Ledger when you see the VeChain app centered on the display.
Once you click Launch Wallet, it’ll say Getting Addresses. This part may take a few minutes, unsure why. Once it’s open, you’ll see a page with five addresses on the bottom right, under Accounts.

Now it’s time to connect your address to your mobile wallet, so that you can bind the X Node. Make sure that you have downloaded the Mobile Wallet for iOS or Android.
3. Add Your Address To Your Mobile App
After you have downloaded the Mobile Wallet for iOS or Android, keep your laptop/desktop and mobile device closeby. After you go through the whole account creation on the VeChain Mobile Wallet (you don’t have to create a wallet during the setup process because you’ll be using one that you import from your Ledger wallet), you’ll be able to either import or create a wallet. To do so, click on “Me” at the bottom right of the app (maybe it’s different on Android, I’m doing this on iOS), and then click on Manage Wallets.
Click Me -> Manage Wallets -> Import a wallet -> Observe Wallet
On the next screen, you’ll see two options at the bottom: Create a wallet and Import a wallet. Click on Import a wallet. On the next screen, at the top right, click on Observe Wallet.
Now go back to your Desktop and click on the address you want to use. It’ll open up a new page with details. On the right-hand side, for the address you want to use, click on Receive. A QR Code will appear.

Scan the QR Code with your mobile device by clicking on the purple scanning icon at the right side of the text box that says “Scan QR code or input wallet address.” The scan should automatically enter the wallet address into the box.
Underneath that, just enter a New Wallet Name, click “I accept” and click Import afterwards. Now, on your mobile device, you’ll be greeted with a new page that is a bit confusing.

All you have to worry abut right now is that big red six-digit code, which you’ll type into your desktop in just a minute. Don’t worry about the QR code scanner for now, we’ll get to it in just a minute as well. Keep the screen open on your Mobile app, but now check out your Desktop app. On your Desktop app, click on Settings, and under settings click on Observe Wallet Authorization.

A popup labeled “Observe Wallet Authorization” will appear. Just click Start.

On the next screen, select the address you are trying to bind. A QR Code will pop up. IGNORE IT. Click next.

Finally, the Desktop app will ask you to enter the 6-digit authentication code, which is the big red six-digits. Click next, and go to your Ledger device and click “Sign the Message.” Click next.
A new QR code will appear. Use this one, and scan it like you did previously through your mobile app. Then on your Mobile App, click Verify Signature. A message will appear saying “Observe wallet successful!”

4. Bind the X Node
This part is all done on the mobile app, so you don’t need your Ledger device or your VeForge account anymore (i.e., your Desktop app). You can close those.
Now, revisit your mobile app and click on Assets on the bottom left. You should see the wallet you just set up, and a button that says X Node Binding. Click it. It will take you to the next screen, which is Step 1 of the binding. Click on your wallet, then click confirm. It’ll take you to Step 2.

Step 2 is where the app verifies that you have an X Node from the ERC-20 wallet. So just enter the Ethereum address that you have your ERC-20 VEN on, or scan the QR code to automatically have it entered, and then click X Node verification. If it qualifies, then congratulations, you’ll reach Step 3. Otherwise, you can’t bind your X Node.
Remember, on Step 2, you need to enter the ETHEREUM address that has your ERC-20 VEN stored, so that VeChain can check if it is X Node qualified. DO NOT enter your new VeChain wallet address into that space, because it will not qualify.
Step 3 should look like this. I screenshot this from the actual video because I didn’t take one before, and now I have no other X Node to bind so I can’t get to step three again on my own phone. Anyway, just click “Understood, start binding.”

On the final screen, you’ll see three things:
- Sender’s Address: this is the Ethereum address that you MUST send from, because this is the address that is X-node qualified and you said you owned it; now VeChain is asking you to prove that you own it. Don’t send ERC-20 VEN from any other wallet.
- Receiver’s Address: this is the address you are sending a 0.01 VEN to. You can click COPY on the right to make it easier for oyu.
- Amount: should be 0.01
To send the 0.01 VEN (ERC-20 token, not VET), you’ll need to make sure you have enough Ethereum in your wallet to pay for the gas. So if you don’t, do that first. Now you just wait. I know the app says wait ten minutes but I had to wait 30. Unsure of how many confirmations that VeChain needs before they accept the transaction. You don’t have to have your app open, once the transaction is verified, your X Node will automatically be bound, you don’t even have to click next.
You’ve successfully bound your X Node to your Ledger Wallet Address, congratulations!
Now, where the button that said X Node Binding once was, you should now see VeThor X Node. Next, you’ll want to transfer over all your VET, but before you can do that, you need to swap your Ethereum-based VEN for VeChain’s main-net VET.
5. (Optional) Swap VEN for VET
If you want to swap immediately, the only way to swap is through L Bank right now (Binance swap is over, and so are most other exchanges). So you can sign up for an account here (note: affiliate link). If you don’t want to swap immediately, you can wait for the VeChain Mobile Wallet Swap support, which will come out on August 11th, 2018. You will have until September 1, 2018, to 1) swap your VEN to VET, and 2) transfer your VET over to your X Node wallet.
After you sign up, the first thing you need to do is set up Google 2-factor authentication. Without setting it up, you won’t be able to withdraw anything. After you do, you can withdraw up to 20 BTC per day.

After you do that, it’s time to deposit your VEN, which LBank will convert into VET. Search for “VET” under the “List of Asset, which can be accessed by clicking “My Account” on the top right of the portal and then clicking “My Account” again in the dropdown menu that appears.
Once you find the VET_ERC20(VEN) Cryptocurrency (NOT the VET cryptocurrency), click on Deposit on the right-hand side. It will take you to the deposit page, where it will show you a warning first. Click Agree, and a deposit address will appear.

You can deposit your ERC-20 VEN into that address, and LBank should automatically swap it for you. If it doesn’t happen, you can always just click Convert under List of assets next to “VET_ERC20(VEN)” cryptocurrency once the deposit happens.
Recommendation: send just a small amount to the deposit address first to test and see if you have received it. Once that’s confirmed, you can send the rest over. Furthermore, you need to make sure that you have enough Ethereum in your Ethereum wallet that has your VEN in order to make the transfer!
After your VEN tokens are sent over and swapped to VET (it happens instantly), you can withdraw out your VET. The transfer fee is 200 VET (2 VEN). Transfer it to the new wallet address that is X-node bound. Now you’re all set, and your X Node on the VeChain main net is good to go! Just sit back and watch the VeTHOR pile up.

VEN to VET: X Node Ledger Bind Tutorial was originally published in Hacker Noon on Medium, where people are continuing the conversation by highlighting and responding to this story.
How to move a VeChain (X-)Node token to a Ledger Nano hardware wallet
![]()
Aim of this guide: This guide will walk you through the process of moving your (X-)Node token and the required funds to a Leder Nano S/X.
Requirements for this guide:
- Have your Ledger Nano set up, including a PIN and verified Seed Words.
- Leder Nano Firmware “Secure Element”: 1.6.0 (or higher)
- Leder Nano Firmware “Microcontroller”: 1.11 (or higher)
- Leder NanoVeChain App Version: 1.0.6 (or higher)
- Inside the VeChain App enable “Contract data” and “Multi Clause”
- Have Sync installed with a version higher or equal to 1.2.1
- Have your mobile device holding the (X-)Node token charged and ready
IMPORTANT: If you start the process of moving your (X-)Node token to your Ledger, you have to complete the process in one session. Otherwise you might lose your (X-)Node status!
This guide will have the following steps:
- Connect Ledger to Sync
- Test transfer TO Ledger
- Test transfer FROM Ledger
- Moving (X-)Node token and VET to your Ledger
Part 1: Moving the (X-)Node token
Part 2: Moving VET
Connect Ledger to Sync
To import your VeChain Ledger wallets, start the VeChain app on the Ledger, start Sync and click the Ledger symbol in the upper right.
Sync will find your Ledger and import five wallets.
Now give your Leder a name and import the wallets
Test transfer TO Ledger
If you move a (X-)Node token and VET to your ledger, it is important to assure that this wallet is functional. To test this, send 100 VTHO from your wallet (on your mobile device) to your Ledger wallet (in Sync).
Open Sync and click on the upper right symbol to access your wallets. Then switch to your Ledger and select the wallet you want to move your token to.
Click on the QR-Code button to easily scan it with your mobile wallet.
Now open your mobile wallet (with your (X-)Node token on it), select “VTHO” and then “Transfer”. You will see a warning not to send VET token on the Ethereum blockchain; accept that.
Now you can scan the destination address by tapping on the upper right scan symbol. After that, “Reciever’s Address” is filled out and you have to enter the amount of VTHO to transfer (100 VTHO) and tap “Next”.
Optional: You can lower your transaction priority to the minimum, to lower the transaction costs.
A summary is then displayed and after tapping “Next” again, your wallet password needs to be entered. A few seconds later, you should be able to see 100 VTHO in your Sync wallet.
The transfered VTHO will be displayed on Sync.
Test transfer FROM Ledger
Now you need to send 40 VTHO back to your mobile wallet. The easiest way to do this, is to open the VeChainstats Manager inside Sync.
You can now click “login / start dApp” and accept the terms of use.
You now have to select your ledger in the upper left, then choose the appropriate target wallet and click “NEXT”.
Now a certificate hash will be displayed in Sync and on your Ledger. Check those values and acknowledge the certificate by pressing the right button on the ledger.
After logging into the VeChainStats Manager, select “SEND FUNDS” to initiate the VTHO transfer.
Enter the address of your (X-)Node on your VeChain mobile wallet into the “TO” field, set the Token to “VeThor”, select the amount (40 VTHO) you want to send and click “SEND FUNDS”.
Sync will now show you the transaction details and you need to click “NEXT”.
Now a summary about the transaction will be shown on your Ledger and you need to press the right button to proceed.
Now you can see the returning 40 VTHO on your mobile wallet again. If you can reproduce the steps above, your Ledger wallet is tested and you are ready to go.
Moving (X-)Node token and VET to your Ledger
IMPORTANT: If you want to move a (X-)Node token and VET, ALWAYS start with the token. After you have moved the token, you will have four hours to fulfill the requirements for VET on the new token wallet!
Part 1: Moving the (X-)Node token
On your VeChain mobile wallet (holding your node token) tap on “Discover” and then on the “Manager” symbol. This will load the “Manager” dApp and you can log in with your (X-)Node token wallet.
After logging in, you can see your (X-)Node token and click on “manage”. To transfer the (X-)aNode token, select “Direct node token transfer”.
Read the following warings carefully and be aware that you have to do Step 2 during the next four hours!
Enter the address of the new wallet into the “To” field. Double and tripe check this step. If you send your token to a wrong address, it is destroyed forever! Then click “Transfer Node token”.
The VeChainStats Manager dApp will now check for unmet requirements on the destination wallet and warn you again if requirements are not met. You can then tap “accept warning and transfer my node”. A summary of the contract will be shown and after you tap “sign” you will need to enter your password.
The transaction is now sent to the blockchain, which can take about 20 seconds. The VeChainStats Manager dApp will inform you when the transaction was successfully written to the blockchain.
You can now check the wallet stored on your Ledger with Sync. After logging into the VeChainStats Manager dApp, it will show you, that you still have 0 VET but already have the VeChain (X-)Node token. Confirm this before you proceed! It will also inform you about missing VET required to maintain your (X-)Node status.
Part 2: Moving VET
The most complicated step is now done. You now just need to send the required VET to the Ledger wallet.
To do so, switch back to your mobile wallet, open the VeChainStats Manager dApp and log in as described in Part 1. Now tap “SEND FUNDS” and fill in the same destination address you send your (X-)Node token to. Then select “VeChain” as a token and send at least the minimum amount required to maintain your node token.
Optional: send 100 VET more so make sure you never accidentally lose your node status because of a rounding error in any dApp/wallet.
Double and triple check the recipient address. If you enter a wrong address, your VET will be lost. Then tap “SEND FUNDS”.
You will now again see a summary of the transaction, you will need to sign the transaction and enter your password as you did in Step 1. The VeChainStats Manager dApp will inform you when the transaction was written to the blockchain.
If you followed the steps above carefully, you will now be able to see your (X-)Node token and your VET on the Ledger wallet. If so, congratulations on moving your node token to a Ledger Nano!
If you run into problems, check the VeChainstats Telegram channel. There are always friendly people who will point you in the right direction.
