Speaking with a Ledger Connect developer at Ledger Op3n yesterday, we heard about how central NFTs have been to the process behind this new extension. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to them, \u201cNFTs were always on Ledger\u2019s mind when developing Connect.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While web-extension wallets aren\u2019t new, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ledger.com\/blog-ledger-connect-browser-extension-is-coming-soon-sign-up-for-the-beta\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Connect<\/a> will be at the forefront of improving user experience for NFT fans everywhere in the crypto and Web3 space. Of course, Ledger are also bringing their impressive security credentials into the mix. Plus, there\u2019ll also be some exciting innovations in clear signing and its use of Ledger\u2019s API to run checks on the products you buy. This all means a lot more peace of mind when you\u2019re buying and trading NFTs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"So_how_does_Ledger_Connect_work_for_purchasing_NFTs\"><strong>So, how does Ledger Connect work for purchasing NFTs?<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The extension connects to your Ledger device via Bluetooth. This means you can only use it if you have your hardware wallet with you. What\u2019s more, Connect runs in the background whilst you browse your favourite Web3 sites and apps.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you want to purchase an NFT, the Connect window will pop up and show you what you\u2019re about to purchase. Ledger\u2019s API run its checks on the product. In turn, users have greater certainty on what they are buying and for how much. Not only that, users can choose which device and account will make the purchase, plus which wallet to store it in later.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If that all seems above board, you sign the smart contract and purchase your brand new NFT. The contract will then appear on your Ledger device, ensuring that a trusted screen is showing exactly what you\u2019re signing. As before, the signature will be made with the buttons on your Ledger, giving you complete security against malware.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"The_Future_For_Ledgers_First_Browser_Extension\"><strong>The Future For Ledger\u2019s First Browser Extension<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ledger also unveiled its plans for clear signing mechanisms for smart contracts.\u00a0 Rather than signing a bunch of code, Ledger Connect will simplify the raw data. This will show you exactly what it is your signing in a clear way.\u00a0 These innovations are exactly the reason Ledger continues to solidify its role in crypto and <a href=\"https:\/\/nftevening.com\/nft-security-guide-with-ledger\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">NFT security<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ledger Live allows you to view your NFTs immediately and store them securely in your cold wallet too.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ledger Connect will launch on Safari in the first quarter of 2023, with an extension for Chrome users following shortly after. <\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"bottom-text__subscribe\">\n<div id=\"mlb2-5802138\" class=\"ml-form-embedContainer ml-subscribe-form ml-subscribe-form-5802138\">\n<div class=\"ml-form-align-center\">\n<div class=\"ml-form-embedWrapper embedForm\">\n<div class=\"ml-form-embedBody ml-form-embedBodyHorizontal row-form\">\n<div class=\"ml-form-embedContent\" style=\"\">\n<h4><span id=\"Join_Our_New_To_The_Moon_daily_Newsletter\">Join Our New &#8220;To The Moon&#8221; daily Newsletter<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Get our free, 5 minutes daily newsletter.
