# Sign in with Ledger (via Xverse)

**Here's how to get started:**

* Once you have installed the Xverse extension proceed to the steps below

**Step 7:** Once the signature request is loaded into the Xverse browser extension, verify your wallet address and sign the on screen request, inside of the Xverse browser extension window.
