Hardware wallet manufacturer Ledger has announced a new device. The Stax wallet has been built on Ledger architecture with unprecedented accessibility and interactivity with crypto assets.
On Dec. 6, the firm announced its latest product, the Ledger Stax. The new hardware wallet was developed in partnership with iPod co-creator Tony Fadell.
The credit card-sized touchscreen device allows users to manage over 500 digital assets. It can also hold NFT collections and integrate with a number of Web3 apps through the Ledger Live app.
Connectivity also extends to smartphones via Bluetooth, the announcement added. The new wallet ships in March 2023, but interested customers can pre-order one at a hefty $279.

In an Apple-Esque promotional spiel, the company touted curved E-ink displays and “unmatched energy efficiency.” Furthermore, integrated magnets make the devices stackable for customers that need more than one.
Ledger CEO Pascal Gauthier boasted that the Nano series had sold 5 million and “none ever hacked,” adding.
“The time is now for a device for more mainstream users. At the same time, we must not compromise on security.”
