Ledger Expands Tezos Support With Etherlink Integration and Native Staking
Ledger has expanded its support for the Tezos ecosystem by integrating Etherlink, Tezos' EVM-compatible smart rollup, into its Ledger signers and Ledger Wallet. This update provides users with full support for Etherlink and the tez (XTZ) token, including secure self-custody, Clear Signing for transactions, and the ability to send, receive, and manage assets directly through Ledger’s desktop and mobile apps. The integration also enables access to Etherlink’s DeFi ecosystem, including protocols like Curve and Uniswap, and introduces upcoming native staking capabilities to further engage users in securing the Tezos network while earning yield. Ledger’s CTO emphasized the hardware-enforced security for all transactions, making it a priority for Tezos and Etherlink users seeking safe DeFi interaction. This move aligns with Etherlink’s growth as a low-cost, fast alternative to Ethereum, appealing to both individual and institutional users. Ledger, celebrating its 10th anniversary in 2024, is a global leader in digital asset protection, securing over 20% of the world’s crypto assets.
