PANews reported on October 23rd that according to CoinDesk, cryptocurrency hardware wallet provider Ledger has comprehensively updated its product line to prepare for the new "era of ownership." It launched the Ledger Nano Gen5, a redesigned version of its iconic device; the Ledger Wallet, an upgraded version of the Ledger Live application; and the Ledger Enterprise Multisig platform for institutional asset management.
The new Nano is no longer just a cryptocurrency wallet; Ledger calls it a "signer," a repository for digital assets and identities. This name change reflects the company's shift in its understanding of the core security of the digital age. As a secure signing device, it can handle cryptocurrency transactions, smart contracts, and identity verification. It supports "Clear Signature," allowing users to verify transactions directly on the device before approving them. It also features Bluetooth and NFC, mobile signing capabilities, and a recovery key for added security. It costs $179 / €179.
