Ledger has announced its next-generation devices, Ledger Stax and Ledger Flex, featuring secure touchscreens. Ledger Stax provides a premium option, while Ledger Flex offers comparable features at a more accessible price.

According to Ledger, the company has introduced its next-generation hardware wallets, Ledger Stax and Ledger Flex, both utilizing Secure Element chips and secure operating systems to enhance digital asset protection. These devices incorporate advanced technology to provide secure and user-friendly experiences.

Both Ledger Stax and Ledger Flex feature larger, improved displays that enhance user interaction by making it easier to read and verify transaction details. This is crucial for preventing crypto theft, as smaller screens can obscure transaction information, leading to increased risk. The larger screens offer a clearer view and a more intuitive user experience, akin to using a smartphone, thereby reducing potential errors and misunderstandings.

Ledger’s new devices boast the world’s first secure E-Ink touchscreens, which are directly driven by the Secure Element chip. This setup prevents the common vulnerabilities associated with traditional screens, which are prone to malware attacks. By utilizing tamper-resistant technology, Ledger Flex and Ledger Stax allow users to confidently verify transaction details, minimizing the risk of falling victim to spoofing or phishing schemes. This advancement aims to provide safer digital transactions compared to standard devices reliant on general-purpose chips.

Founded in 2014, Ledger specializes in developing products and services for securely managing digital assets. With over 700 employees across multiple global offices, the company is known for its devices powered by a Secure Element chip and a proprietary operating system. These devices, along with the Ledger Live app, are designed to protect and manage cryptocurrencies and other digital assets. The company also offers customizable infrastructure solutions for enterprises, including banks and hedge funds, to safeguard crypto assets.
