For this new wallet release, Ledger teamed up with Tony Fadell, the designer of the iPod.

What’s new with this device is that it has a curved E Ink touchscreen display that shows the user’s favorite artwork or NFT even when the device is turned off, among other cool new specs.

Therefore, if you want to know all about that, we suggest you keep reading!

What makes Ledger Stax different from other hardware wallets?

Ledger Stax has a lot of new features compared to the other Ledger hardware wallets. It has a customizable exterior, wireless charging, a magnetic case, and an E Ink touch screen.

In addition, the device also connects to laptops through a USB-C port and to smartphones that have the Ledger Live Mobile app via Bluetooth.

However, what makes it stand out the most is that it’s built for everyday use and understanding. According to their website, here is the unique selling point of this new device:

Clear Sign-In Comfort

Compared to the old models, the ledger Stax has a touch screen, which makes reading, understanding, and signing transactions easy.

E Ink Touchscreen

The device screen is not just another touchscreen display. It uses an E-ink display, which is considered to be easier to read. It is battery-saving and almost paper-like. Plus, it has higher contrast, no glare, and a more natural reading experience.

Palm-sized

We know we often prefer bigger sizes, but not with hardware wallets. This device is built for convenience. Therefore, it has the length and width similar to a credit card that you can bring everywhere with you.

Moreover, to help you understand what we’re talking about, here is the full revealed specification of Ledger Stax.

  • Weight: 45g
  • Connectivity: USB C, Bluetooth 5.2

Why Is Ledger Stax Important?

The release of Ledger’s new wallet comes at an important time. Following the FTX cryptocurrency scandal, both Web3 fans and skeptics are looking for ways to improve their security.

The whole “not your keys, not your coins” thing became mainstream, and people started to realize that storing their digital assets on exchanges might not be the best option.

Pascal Gauthier, CEO and Chairman of Ledger, said, “With the Ledger Nano series, we created the most successful digital asset security hardware of all time—with more than 5 million sold and none ever hacked. Digital assets are increasingly about identity and digital ownership, not just crypto like Bitcoin. The time is now for a device for more mainstream users. At the same time, we must not compromise on security.”

The new Ledger wallet is far more user-friendly than its old versions. Users can now manage their NFT collection and more than 500 coins using a touch interface, which is a real game changer.

Plus, every Ledger Stax comes with an Infinity Pass, which grants the user a free NFT that will have useful utilities soon.

Besides that, you can also mint a Ledger Stax NFT on Ledger Market to get access to special NFT artwork made by the company’s network of hand-picked artists.

Holders of the Ledger Market Genesis Pass will be the first to get their hands on this piece of art.

Where Can You Buy Ledger Stax?

We know you’re just as excited as we are, but Ledger Stax won’t be available until the first quarter of 2023.

Don’t worry. While you wait, you can pre-order it ahead of time on Ledger’s website right now. In the coming months, it will also be sold in stores like Best Buy in the United States.

What Will Happen Next?

This is one of the first times a big company that makes hardware wallets has tried to make the security of digital assets more “Apple-like.”

Given the success of brands like Apple, which have made significant investments in their user interfaces over the years, this could be the beginning of a trend that makes it easier for people to get started with Web 3.0.

Ledger is already recognized as one of the best Web3 hardware wallet companies. Therefore, security might be the least of Web3’s problems when it comes to getting more people on board.

Skeptics keep saying that the biggest problem in the space is the lack of protection against scams and the volatility of cryptocurrencies, but new hardware like this can potentially change that narrative.
