Deployment issue using hardhat-ledger, error message vague about hardhat HOT 4 OPEN

Are you able to run this script (or a similar script) without using ledger?
Basically can we isolate whether the RPC error is due to hardhat-ledger or the general interaction of Hardhat and the skaleChain.

you're right, I could run the script using accounts["PRIVATE_KEY"](not using ledgerAccounts). Error seems to be specific to hardhat-ledger. I need to deploy using these contracts using the hardware wallet though @kanej any suggestions on how to go about this. I cannot export the hardware wallets private key

We will have to investigate what is happening in hardhat-ledger - intuitively a transaction that works without going through ledger should work when it does so.
Is there any information in skaleChain community that suggests with Ledger based transactions?

I will check with the Skale chain community and get back. In the mean time;
