PARIS & NASHVILLE, Tennessee | Ledger, the global leader in securing digital assets for consumers and enterprises, today launched Ledger Flex, the second new product launch in 2024. Ledger Flex, along with the previously released Ledger Stax, launched during Ledger’s 10th anniversary, mark the start of a new generation of Ledger hardware, featuring secure E Ink® touchscreen displays powered by Ledger’s Secure OS. Ledger Flex is available for purchase today at Ledger.com and through our selling partners worldwide for $249,- with immediate shipping.
Ledger Flex marks the new standard for Ledger devices, featuring NFC and a secure E Ink® touchscreen, at an attractive price. Ledger Flex pays homage to the iconic black and steel motif seen on Ledger devices for the past decade, a reminder of Ledger’s heritage of uncompromising security. The 2.8” high-resolution display provides clarity when signing transactions or approving credentials. E Ink® offers unmatched power efficiency, allowing the battery to last weeks or even months on a single charge.
“After a decade of setting the standard for security and self-custody in crypto and digital assets, I am proud to say we are raising the bar again,” say Pascal Gauthier, Chairman and CEO of Ledger. “By launching both Ledger Flex and Ledger Stax this year, we are redefining the self-custody experience. Ledger devices already secure over 20% of the world’s digital assets, and our new secure touchscreen category will make self-custody more accessible than ever to more consumers and enterprises.”
Secure signing devices are the key to a future where Proof of you is becoming essential — as more of our value becomes digitized, society will need reliable methods to prove identity. The rapid advancement of AI is pushing provenance to the forefront of technology’s biggest challenges, and it’s becoming increasingly difficult to trust what you see. Ledger devices are the only products in the world with secure touchscreens, making them essential for protecting both your digital value and your identity. Ledger devices bring security to your inherently insecure devices.
After a decade of building uncompromisingly secure devices and a robust open-source developer ecosystem, Ledger is ready to secure a world that embraces AI. Where AI creates abundance, blockchain is a natural partner by creating scarcity and authenticity. Ledger is securing the blockchain and will build applications to meet the need for Proof of You.
This starts with a new app for Ledger Stax and Ledger Flex: Ledger Security Key, which brings Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) and Passkey capabilities. Passkeys offer a secure and convenient alternative to traditional passwords and can eliminate phishing from your security risk factors. With Ledger Security Key, you can use your Ledger wallet to log in without having to figure out your password or use less secure 2FA like a browser extension or SMS. This feature is built on the open FIDO 2 specification, which enables decentralized access across all platforms, and is already compatible with Google, Amazon, Binance, Coinbase, and many more. Simply tap your Ledger Flex or Ledger Stax to your phone to log in to supported services, or connect to your laptop or PC via USB.
“Without a secure screen, you are not secure. Period. Ledger Stax and Ledger Flex’s easy-to-use secure touchscreens are the only truly secure touchscreens in the world, as tested by the Donjon and third parties,” say Ian Rogers, Chief Experience Officer at Ledger. “With growing digital ownership and AI fakes, digital asset security, proof of humanity, and proof of identity are more important than ever. Ledger Stax and Ledger Flex are the secure touchscreens to match the insecure touchscreen in your pocket.”
Ledger Flex has partnered with Ledger Live, the leading omni-chain companion app, allowing users to seamlessly connect to their Ledger device. Ledger Live is the safest way to buy, sell, exchange and earn yield on your crypto, integrated with global providers such as Moonpay, Coinbase, PayPal and Lido. To date, Ledger supports over 10,000 coins and tokens across 70+ blockchains in Ledger Live, and around 200 dApps have been integrated into the Ledger ecosystem. Developers looking to build on the Ledger ecosystem can check out our updated Developer Portal here.
Embracing a future built on digital value requires secure recovery options so that your digital asset or identity is never lost. In 2023, Ledger launched Ledger Recover, powered by Coincover, a service that allows users to encrypt, shard, and backup their Secret Recovery Phrase, which will support Ledger Flex at launch, alongside the already available Ledger Stax. With Ledger Recover, you never have to worry about regaining access to your wallet, even if your physical Secret Recovery Phrase backup is lost or destroyed. With Ledger Live, ™Ledger Security Key, and Ledger Recover, the complete digital ownership experience is only available and possible in the Ledger ecosystem.
