EGLD Is Now Available On The Ledger Live Wallet App

Published on: 14.12.2021

Elrond Network announce that EGLD is now available in the popular Ledger Live wallet app that more than 1.5 million people use to manage their crypto holdings.

Furthermore, with the newly released Elrond Ledger app v1.0.17, more than 4 million hardware wallet owners can now securely store their MEX, RIDE, NFTs and any other kind of ESDT token.

As a result, Maiar DEX users and NFT owners can now enjoy an additional layer of security by managing their assets and operations directly from cold storage. Thanks to the easy integration of Ledger authentication with any dApp, security is further boosted for any Elrond user.

“The Elrond Network is a radically new blockchain architecture, designed from the ground up for unprecedented scalability and efficiency. We took it upon ourselves to write the integration with the powerful capabilities of the Ledger hardware wallet and applications, to ensure that our users get maximum security and compatibility for their EGLD, NFTs and ESDT assets.” — Lucian Mincu, Elrond Network CIO.

In continuous close collaboration with the Ledger development team, the Elrond core devs will add more functionality to the Ledger Live application, such as ESDTs,  staking, NFTs and smart contract management.

“The Elrond team developed the Elrond Nano application and the support of Elrond in Ledger Live in full autonomy using our SDK and documentation. We are happy to offer best-in class security for this project. This is just the beginning of our collaboration. Many more features and services on the Elrond blockchain will arrive soon.” — Fabrice Dautriat, Head of Platform at Ledger.

EGLD is now fully available on the Ledger Live desktop app, with the mobile app integration to follow shortly.
