EGLD Staking & ESDT Tokens Now Available To 1.5+ Million Ledger Live Users

Together with this milestone, Ledger is now also involved in proposing and validating blocks on our blockchain network through their very own staking pool, run in collaboration with Figment. Their staking pool already has 7 nodes and can currently accommodate an unlimited amount of EGLD.
Staking is the way to contribute towards the network’s security and decentralization, and even to its scalability in the case of the MultiversX blockchain, as it can linearly grow in throughput in tandem with more shards added.

Moreover, Ledger’s integration of MultiversX now extends to ESDT tokens - MEX, USDC and RIDE are already available for secure storage, management and transfer, with more MultiversX tokens soon to follow.
By never sharing the private key outside the chip or device, wallets like Ledger and xPortal provide the highest level of security, offering users an invaluable additional safety layer.
This is why we are thankful and appreciate the new integrations with Ledger products, and the continuous support received from their team.
