I sent Vechain to my Ethereum wallet on my ledger nano X by accident. Now I need the private key in order to get my funds back. Ive tried numerous times to find my private key and my ethereum address is not showing up. Ive tried bip44, bip32, and even bip32 while changing the derivation path to m/44'/60'/0'/0. I am using 24 words and also using my ledgers passphrase. Im completely lost at this point does anybody have any idea what I might be doing wrong?

Have you tried BIP32 derivation path m/44'/60'/0' already? So that the 1st key itself is m/44'/60'/0'/0? Ledger wallet is "special" and they are not 100% compatible with BIP44 separating receiving and change addresses.
