According to a press release shared with Cointelegraph, today Ledger has announced a new portfolio based on Bluetooth technology.
The portfolio, called Ledger Nano X, was shown at the CES 2019 Las Vegas conference. At the same time, the company announced that the mobile app will be available from January 28, allowing users to manage their transactions and check their balances from a mobile device.
Ledger Nano X will have the ability to store 100 cryptographic assets. At the end of November, Ledger Nano S had started supporting Altcoin Monero (XMR).
In October, the leading technology company Sony announced that it had created a contactless cryptographic hardware portfolio that used intelligent IC technology. While the release date of the product is not yet known, Sony noted that the device would be able to manage private keys to store private information on the blockchain and manage encryption holdings.
During the summer, Ledger reported having sold over 1 million portfolios in 2017, attracting larger technology investors such as Samsung, the venture capital of Google GV and Siemens. The company also opened a Hong Kong office at the end of October.
In December, a research team demonstrated the reported vulnerabilities they found in Ledger's hardware that supposedly allowed them to install any firmware on their wallet. In response to the demonstration, Ledger published a statement that the vulnerabilities were not critical and the hacking methods proposed by the demonstrators were impractical.
