Ledger introduced its latest lineup of security products at its Op3n event in Paris on Thursday, including the new Ledger Nano Gen5 device, a redesigned Ledger Wallet (formerly Ledger Live) app, and an upgraded Enterprise Multisig platform for institutions.

The company said the releases reflect an evolution from hardware-based crypto storage to tools designed for safeguarding digital value in a world challenged by AI — integrating asset protection, identity verification, and enterprise-grade security into a unified platform.

Ledger's hardware wallets will now be known as Ledger signers, a change the company said aligns with their broader role in protecting digital identity in an increasingly AI-driven environment. The Nano Gen5, the latest iteration of Ledger's popular device series, is designed to secure assets, identities, smart contracts, and protocols.

The Nano Gen5 includes Bluetooth and NFC connectivity, an E Ink touchscreen, and features such as Clear Signing, Transaction Check, and Ledger Recovery Key — a physical "spare key" for tap-to-recover crypto wallets if needed. Tony Fadell, iPod inventor and Ledger board member, worked with designer Susan Kare to develop personalized iconography for the device, continuing their shared focus on both usability and design.

"The Ledger Nano series is the most successful digital asset security device of all time, with millions sold and none ever hacked," Ledger Chairman and CEO Pascal Gauthier said in a statement. "The all new Ledger Nano is built for the challenges and opportunities of today, and ready for those coming in the future."

Recreating Ledger Live as Ledger Wallet

Ledger also introduced the newly renamed Ledger Wallet app — formerly known as Ledger Live — designed as an "intuitive control center for your digital value," the team said. Beyond buy, sell, trade, and swap services, it supports direct connections to decentralized applications such as 1inch and integrates Noah's "Cash-To-Stablecoin" feature, enabling users to convert fiat currencies into USDC without additional fees.

"Ledger is for people who are serious about their digital wealth," Ledger Chief Experience Officer Ian Rogers said. "The combination of Ledger Wallet on your smartphone or computer and your Ledger signer make it easy and safe to use the full range of services offered by decentralized finance."

"We support 100% of the top 100 tokens and far beyond, without ever compromising on security or ownership. By comparison, exchanges are walled gardens and using a software wallet alone is like begging to have your wealth stolen," he added.

Proof of Authority beyond the individual

For institutional users, including banks, custodians, governments, foundations, and crypto-native businesses, the company also unveiled Ledger Enterprise Multisig, designed to enhance security for treasury management, smart contract governance, and multi-chain operations.

Each transaction is "Clear Signed" on a Ledger device for easily verifiable confirmation, providing a "single, trusted point of truth" while maintaining operational efficiency, the team said.

The new hardware and software were tested by Ledger's in-house security team, Donjon, and reviewed by external experts, with the Nano Gen5 now available for shipping at a $179 price point.
