Unveiling LEDGER FLEX: The Future of Secure Self-Custody is Here!

Introducing LEDGER FLEX

LEDGER FLEX, announced by Pascal Gauthier and Ian Rogers at The Bitcoin Conference, sets a new standard for secure self-custody. This innovative product is designed to provide easy, secure self-custody, free from compromise.

Introducing LEDGER FLEX

Product Launch

The Ledger Flex is now available for purchase at $249. It features a secure E Ink® touchscreen and NFC capabilities, emphasizing Ledger's commitment to security and usability. This device marks Ledger's second product launch in 2024, coinciding with the company's tenth anniversary.

Key Features

  • High-resolution 2.8” display for clarity in transactions.
  • Unmatched energy efficiency—the battery can last for weeks on a single charge.
  • Supports Proof of You, essential for identity verification as digital value increases.

Pascal Gauthier, Chairman & CEO of Ledger, stated: "I’m proud to say we’re raising the bar again" in self-custody technology. The Ledger Flex and the previously released Ledger Stax redefine the user experience for consumers and enterprises.

Security and Identity

The importance of secure signing devices is highlighted by the need for Proof of You in a digitized world. As AI advances, the challenge of verifying identity becomes crucial. Ledger devices are the only ones globally with secure touchscreens, providing essential protection for both digital assets and personal identity.

New Applications

This secure alternative to traditional passwords enhances security significantly, reducing the risk of phishing attacks. Users can simply tap their Ledger devices to log in to various services, streamlining the process while maintaining security.
