1. Adding Keystone to Nunchuk
1) Turn your Keystone hardware wallet on.
2) Tap [Menu] > [Multisig Wallet] > and then the [•••] button on the top right of the screen > then [Show/Export XPUB]. Your Keystone hardware wallet will display a QR code to be used to pair with a generic wallet.
3) Run the Nunchuk V1.9.0 or newer on your smartphone and log into your Nunchuk account.
4) Go to the “Wallets” interface and select [Add a key] or [+] icon on the right side of the "keys" column > [Add air-gapped key] > [Continue].
5) Set the [Key name] and press [Add key spec via QR], then use your smartphone's camera to scan the QR code displayed on your Keystone device.
6) Press [Add Key] > [Done]. Your Keystone should now be successfully added to Nunchuk.
2. Adding ColdCard to Nunchuk
1) Turn your ColdCard on and insert the microSD card into it.
2) Select [Settings] > [Multisig Wallets] > [Export XPUB] > confirm (√) to save the XPUB of the recovery phrase as a .json file to the microSD card.
3) Take out the microSD card from Coldcard and insert it into a PC/Mac. Then find and open the .json file.
4) On Nunchuk: Press [+] icon on the right side of the "keys" column > [Add air-gapped key] > [Continue].
5) Set your desired name for this key in the [Key name] space provided.
You would also need to set the [Key spec] using the Master Key Fingerprint, Path, and XPUB found in the ColdCard’s XPUB file so Nunchuck can properly and successfully read data from your ColdCard:
[5271C071/48'/0'/0'/2']Zpub755NbzNDFus6egJM22CLBqjabHyNV8PEWJHGBkfCSXN2W8HRPKEA2MyxvycgD4AxNMcrTuxSwKYiNJ19h9PLURGZoWyC2Tutr7SWaU1swYK
Notice the first section in square brackets is the Master Key fingerprint “5271C071” followed by the Path, in this case, “/48'/0'/0'/2'”. The remaining key spec data is the XPUB.
After you’ve properly copied the necessary data in the right format and pasted in the [Key spec] space provided, press [Add Key] > [Done]. Your ColdCard should now be successfully added to Nunchuk.
3. Adding Software Key to Nunchuk
1) Press [+] icon on the right side of the "keys” column > [Add software key] > [Create new seed].
2) Safely backup your recovery phrase and press [Continue] > Confirm the recovery phrase and press [Continue] > Give the key a name and press [Continue].
