Proven Ledger quality
Ledger’s latest hardware wallet also makes it easy to enter the world of digital assets with Ledger’s industry-leading, uncompromising security. The hardware wallet also works seamlessly with Ledger Live: Managing, buying, selling and earning 5.500+ (to the complete list) digital assets via works as usual. It is also possible to perform transactions and manage NFTs and thousands of coins. Reading and signing transactions on the world’s first palm-sized, curved E Ink touchscreen is now even easier. The display is extremely energy-saving and, like an e-book, paper-like and pleasant to read.
The focus is always on mobile operation, which is easily possible via Android and iOS thanks to the Bluetooth module. But the use via MacOS or Windows is of course also possible without any problems. Charging is now possible wirelessly.
Personalization of the Ledger Stax
It is also possible to personalize the Ledger Stax’ with your favorite NFT or picture that will be displayed on the lock screen, even when it is turned off. Thanks to the e-ink display, this static information does not consume any power. According to Ledger, the 200 mAh lithium-ion battery lasts several months on a full charge when left unused, even when the user’s own picture is displayed. Several Ledger Stax’ can be easily stacked thanks to the built-in magnet. This will certainly make even more interesting functions possible in the future due to the built-in NFC chip.

FAQ 5
Ask your own questionHow to transfer coins from Coinbase to Ledger?
If you buy cryptocurrencies through Coinbase and store them there, Coinbase is in possession of your private keys and could theoretically disappear with your cryptocurrencies at any time.
Therefore, it is recommended not to keep the coins on exchanges, but to transfer them to wallets, where one is the only one in possession of the private keys.
You should therefore consider sending the coins from your Coinbase Wallet to your Ledger Wallet. For a possible later sale, you can simply send the coins from the hardware wallet back to Coinbase.
How to transfer coins from Coinbase to your hardware wallet
How many coins can be stored on Ledger hardware wallets?
Ledger hardware wallets (Ledger Nano S Plus, Ledger Nano X or Ledger STAX) support over 5,500 different cryptocurrencies. Among them are all the well-known coins like Bitcoin, Ethereum or Ripple. A complete overview can be found here:
Ledger supported cryptocurrencies.In principle, as many supported coins/cryptocurrencies can be stored on the Ledger Nano S as you like. This is because the hardware wallet only stores the private keys that guarantee access to the coins. To manage the coins, the corresponding app must be installed on the device.
However, you can only install a certain number of apps at a time on the Ledger Nano S or Nano X. This is because the memory of the Ledger Nano S and Nano X is limited. However, it is not a problem to switch apps by un- and install, so the coins are not lost.
It is not yet known how many apps the Ledger STAX can store simultaneously.
What is the expected delivery date for Ledger STAX if I preorder now?
Ledger had planned the delivery for the end of March 2023. Unfortunately, this date could not be met and have been shipped at end of May 2024. This is probably due, among other things, to the special display, which has proven to be much more difficult to manufacture than expected.
They are working hard to ship the Ledger Stax as quickly as possible and in the best possible quality.
The current status can always be found on the Ledger Stax product page.
