PARIS AND NASHVILLE, TN Ledger, the global leader in digital asset security for consumers and enterprises, today launched Ledger Flex, its second new product release in 2024. Launched during Ledger’s 10th anniversary, Ledger Flex and the previously launched Ledger Stax mark the beginning of a new generation of Ledger hardware, featuring secure E Ink® touchscreens powered by Ledger’s secure operating system. Ledger Flex is available for purchase today at Ledger.com and through our retail partners worldwide for $249, immediate shipping.
Ledger Flex sets the new standard for Ledger devices, with NFC and a secure E Ink® touchscreen, at an attractive price. Ledger Flex is a tribute to the iconic black and steel motif that has appeared on Ledger devices for a decade, a reminder of Ledger’s tradition of absolute security. Its high-resolution 2.8” display provides clarity when signing transactions or approving logins. E Ink® offers unmatched energy efficiency, so the battery can last for weeks or even months on a single charge.
“After a decade of setting the standard for security and self-custody in cryptocurrencies and digital assets, I am proud to say that we are raising the bar again.” says Pascal Gauthier, President and CEO of Ledger. “With the launch of Ledger Flex and Ledger Stax this year, we are redefining the self-custody experience. Ledger devices already protect over 20% of the world’s digital assets, and our new secure touchscreen class will make self-custody more accessible than ever for more consumers and businesses.”
Secure signing devices are key to a future in which Proof of you becomes essential: As more of our value becomes digitalized, society will need trusted methods to prove identity. The rapid advancement of ai puts provenance at the forefront of technology’s biggest challenges, and trusting what you see becomes increasingly difficult. Ledger devices are the only products in the world with secure touchscreens, making them essential to protecting both your digital value and your identity. Ledger devices bring security to your inherently insecure devices.
After a decade of developing secure devices and a strong open-source developer ecosystem, Ledger is ready to protect a world that embraces ai. While ai creates abundance, the blockchain is a natural partner in creating scarcity and authenticity. Ledger secures the blockchain and will build applications to meet the need for proof of identity.
This all starts with a new app for Ledger Stax and Ledger Flex: Ledger Security Key, which offers two-factor authentication (2FA) and passkey capabilities. Passkeys provide a secure and convenient alternative to traditional passwords and can eliminate phishing from your security risk factors. With Ledger Security Key, you can use your Ledger wallet to log in without having to search for your password or use a less secure 2FA such as a browser extension or SMS. This feature is built on the open FIDO 2 specification, ensuring decentralized access across all platforms, and is already supported by Google, amazon, Binance, Coinbase, and more. Simply tap your Ledger Flex or Ledger Stax with your phone to log in to supported services, or plug it in via USB to your laptop or PC.
“Without a secure display, you’re not secure. Period. Ledger Stax and Ledger Flex secure, easy-to-use touchscreens are the world’s only truly secure touchscreens, battle-tested by Donjon and third parties.” says Ian Rogers, Chief Experience Officer at Ledger“With the rise of digital ownership and ai forgeries, digital asset security, proof of humanity and proof of identity are more crucial than ever. Ledger Stax and Ledger Flex are the secure touchscreens that meet the insecure touchscreen in your pocket.”
Ledger Flex is partnered with Ledger Live, the leading multi-chain companion app, allowing users to seamlessly connect with their Ledger device. Ledger Live is the most secure way to buy, sell, trade, and earn yields on your cryptocurrencies, integrated with global providers like Moonpay, Coinbase, PayPal, and Lido. To date, Ledger supports over 10,000 coins and tokens across 70+ blockchains on Ledger Live, and approximately 200 decentralized applications have been integrated into the Ledger ecosystem.

Embracing a future built on digital value requires secure recovery options that ensure your digital value or identity is never lost. In 2023, Ledger launched Ledger Recover, powered by Coincover, a service that allows users to encrypt, shard, and backup their secret recovery phrase, which is supported by Ledger Flex at launch, in addition to the already available Ledger Stax. With Ledger Recover, you never have to worry about regaining access to your wallet, even if your physical backup of the secret recovery phrase is lost or destroyed. With Ledger Live, Ledger Security Key, and Ledger Recover, the entire digital ownership experience is present and possible only in the Ledger ecosystem.
