STRAT blockchain no longer active
The STRAT blockchain will be replaced by the STRAX blockchain. The former Startis blockchain doesn't work correctly anymore due to a lack of miners on the blockchain. To migrate your STRAT tokens to STRAX tokens, you may follow the instructions detailed here. These instructions require you to import your 24-word recovery phrase into the new Stratis software wallet (at your own risk).
You should never ever share your 24-word recovery phrase, in any form, with anyone. Exporting your accounts by entering your 24 words is highly insecure and should only be used for recovery as a last resort.
If you decide to follow the Stratis instructions, we advise you to first transfer all your valuable assets to another Ledger device, for which you already own the recovery phrase.
Install the Stratis app on your Ledger device to manage Stratis (STRAT) with Ledger Live. The Stratis app is developed and supported by Ledger.
Before you start
- Set up Ledger Live with your device.
- Update the firmware on your Ledger device.
- Install the Bitcoin app, as Stratis requires it.
Instructions
- Open the Manager in Ledger Live.
- Connect and unlock your device.
- If asked, allow the manager on your device.
- Find Stratis in the app catalog.
- Click the Install button of the app.
- An installation window appears.
- Your device will display Processing...
- The app installation is confirmed.
The Stratis app can export your extended public key (xpub) to web apps in a U2F compatible web browser (Chrome, Opera or Firefox). The xpub is privacy-sensitive information, as all public addresses can be generated from it.
Public key exports by default require manual approval on the device to prevent inadvertent sharing of your public addresses. This setting can be configured as follows:
- Open the Stratis app.
- Navigate to Settings > Public key export approval.
- Choose one of two options:
- Manual approval (default): public key exports require a confirmation on the device.
- Auto approval: public key exports are automatically approved.
Stratis addresses start with an S. This is Stratis' only address format.
Address privacy
Stratis transactions are public information. Do not re-use your addresses for optimal privacy. Ledger Live automatically generates new addresses and keeps track of your previous ones. Previous addresses do remain valid, but they don't offer an optimal level of privacy.
Next steps
- Add your accounts to Portfolio.
- Send or receive crypto assets.
