Summary
Ledger introduced its next-generation security lineup at its Op3n event, featuring the new Ledger Nano Gen5 device, a redesigned Ledger Wallet app (formerly Ledger Live), and an upgraded Enterprise Multisig platform. These releases signal an evolution toward tools that integrate asset protection, identity verification, and enterprise security for the AI era. The hardware wallets are now termed "Ledger signers." The Nano Gen5 includes Bluetooth, NFC, an E Ink touchscreen, Clear Signing, and the Ledger Recovery Key feature. CEO Pascal Gauthier emphasized that the new device is built for current and future challenges, noting the success of the previous series without hacks. The Ledger Wallet app now serves as a control center supporting DeFi connections and a fee-free fiat-to-USDC conversion feature. For institutions, the Ledger Enterprise Multisig enhances treasury management and governance security. The Nano Gen5 is available for shipping at $179 after internal and external security reviews.
