A growing number of people are voicing frustrations after being unable to send their FTM coins via Ledger wallets. The issue escalated following an announcement from exchanges that they would terminate FTM services after May 2nd and convert to a new platform, Sonic. With time running out, users are desperate for solutions.
Context of the Concern
The clamor began when numerous people reported technical difficulties while attempting to transfer FTM to the PWA wallet through their Ledger devices. Many express they had successfully carried out such transactions previously but are now met with unresponsiveness when sending coins. Confusion reigns as the deadline for exchanges approaches.
Technical Takeaways from User Comments
Key points from discussions on forums include:
App Installation Needed: Several commenters emphasized the importance of having the Fantom app installed and open on Ledger devices. Closing Ledger Live while using the PWA wallet may help resolve conflicts.
Browser Compatibility Matters: Users suggest switching browsers. One advised using Chrome or Brave, as issues might stem from browser incompatibility.
Manual Network Addition: Not all wallets auto-detect Fantom tokens. It appears that users need to add the Fantom network manually in wallets like Rabby, a step many are struggling with.
"If nothing happens when you click send, it might be a browser issue," one user noted, highlighting the tech hurdles facing many.
User Responses Highlight the Tension
The sentiment is a mix of frustration and confusion:
"I have the latest versions, but nothing works!"
One user succinctly stated, "Ledger does not support the Fantom app," pointing to possible limitations with the device.
Keep the Following in Mind
