Ledger Nano S - Hardware WalletCryptocurrency storage with Ledger Nano S: safe & functional! Here, you will find an innovative solution for managing emerging crypto currencies: Ledger Nano S is a handy hardware wallet for Ethereum, Bitcoin and Altcoins. It is based on efficient security features in order to store any cryptographic asset. A connection via USB is possible to any computer and this wallet has an embedded secure OLED display. Because of this, every transaction can be checked or confirmed by tapping the side buttons once.
Newest generation of hardware wallet If you own or want to use cryptocurrencies on a regular basis, you should protect your confidential information and access to funds. With Ledger Nano S, secrets such as private passwords are never revealed: sensitive transactions are isolated within your hardware wallet in a secure element protected by a PIN code. Transactions can therefore not be manipulated by others because they are physically verified on the embedded screen.
Pay and authenticate with maximum security
Finally a solution for the storage of cryptocurrencies: Ledger Nano S includes Litecoin, Ethereum, Bitcoin and Ethereum Classic companion apps. Furthermore, it contains other Blockchain-based cryptocurrencies. You can realize and receive payments, check accounts, and manage numerous addresses for various cryptocurrencies on the same device with desirable clarity. This wallet also provides the standard Universal Second Factor, which simplifies the authentication for compatible online services such as Dashlane, GMail, GitHub or Dropbox.

Wallet for cryptocurrencies: Why do you need a hardware wallet?
If you are not familiar with the term hardware wallet, you may be wondering what are the advantages compared to a paper purse or an encrypted private file on a computer?
Hardware wallets offer a complete isolation of cryptographic secrets and the computer/smartphone. Both are quite easy to hack as their weaknesses are well known. If you keep your sensitive credentials there, it's only a matter of time before you will lose everything.
A paper wallet is not really safe. It requires you to import your private data to your computer. And if you believe that a password is sufficient for encryption, then malware is smart enough to wait for unavoidable decryption even before you can use your credit.
A hardware wallet is portable, practical and backed-up by a paper wallet that allows an easy recovery in the event of a loss. If you own and regularly use a significant amount of bitcoins, the use of a hardware wallet should be self-evident.
Attention! With the update to 1.4.1 are now up to max. 18 simultaneous wallets possible

Paper Wallet is history: This is forward-looking security for your private keys!After extensive product testing, we offer you the best hardware wallets to use digital currencies such as Bitcoin, Ethereum or Ripple very flexibly and with a high degree of security. In this respect, we strongly recommend you not to back up passwords (private keys) on a paper wallet. Paper is too weak to permanently secure this very important data. Fire and moisture are enough to make your important access data unreadable. With this extremely robust metal plate, you rely on a very durable material on which you will find enough space to engrave sensitive data.
Enough space to engrave private keys and moreThe metal plate for the physical security of passwords provides a clear structure and individually usable space for security-relevant engravings. In the first line, you can engrave your Bitcoin address, in the second line the corresponding private key. If you also use Ethereum, you can use the following two lines in analogous way. The rest of the space is deliberately blank, so that you can engrave exactly the passwords for cryptocurrencies that you want to use. You should not keep passwords on a paper wallet, as paper quickly becomes unreadable due to external influences. And of course, you should not store passwords and other sensitive data related to the use of cryptocurrencies on the Internet. If you want to use a robust protection that is completely safe from hackers and various influences (fire, water, acids etc.), then this metal plate with its functional material mix is the perfect choice.
Individualize this metal plate (V4A) with passwordsPlease take a look at the product video: You will see that it is quick and easy to create engravings for passwords and addresses for various cryptocurrencies. The high-quality pen with diamond tip makes engraving easy. The pen slides well over the surface, you do not have to apply significant pressure. Metal plate and engraving pen have been designed to ensure the best possible readability for sensitive data. The following advantages show you which functional details you can use with this metal plate.
Advantages in the overview: a paper wallet cannot keep up!
- extremely high protection against fire due to a melting point of approximately 1,400 degrees: The fire experiment shows that the engravings are even better readable after high temperatures
- robust against solvents, salt water etc.: very efficient protection against corrosion
- the functional material mix (V4A) is used in industry
- integrated molybdenum provides efficient protection against chloride-containing substances
- anywhere storable thanks to credit card size and light weight (34 grams)
- can be used for all crypto currencies: The clear basic structure offers plenty of room for further engravings
This metal plate does what it promises!
The melting point of 1,400 degrees proves that the material mix, which contains chrome and nickel in addition to stainless steel, is designed for extreme robustness. Therefore, it is not surprising that exactly this material is used successfully due to the very strong solidification in industrial areas. The special mix of materials (also known as 1.4401 stainless steel) is highly corrosion resistant and can withstand aggressive substances such as iodide, sulfuric acid or bromide. Your engraving is safe, no matter what extreme external influence affects the metal plate.
Fire protection 2.0 for your passwords: a paper wallet looks black fast...True to this motto, you should take a look at our fire experiment. We have tested the metal with temperatures more than 1,200 degrees. And the result is impressive: After being exposed to heat, the engraved code is still very well, if not even with a better contrast, readable.
Practical design for everyday use!
Now you may think that the extreme robustness of the material requires chunky proportions. The opposite is the case because with only 34 grams and credit card size, this metal plate fits actually everywhere. It must be in your interest to sustainably increase safety with this innovative product idea. Therefore, you should consciously opt for a repository that is inaccessible to outsiders.
This set convinces qualitatively with every detail
We want to offer our customers convincing quality that stands for safety. A very positive user experience is provided by the high-quality engraving pen with both excellent performance and handiness. The strong, battery-powered motor ensures that passwords can be engraved quickly and precisely on the metal plate. The practical slide switch allows you to fully focus on engraving. With the high-quality diamond tip, you will create first-class engravings without any prior knowledge, and not only on this metal plate. The engraving pen also delivers excellent results on plastic, ceramics and stone. If you've only had a negative experience with cheap engraving pens so far, you will love this model.
Please keep these tips in mind: You should take your time and silence to engrave; the deeper and the more careful you work, the easier the engraving will be to read. This plate should always be kept separate from your hardware wallet.
Your passwords for Bitcoin and Co. deserve more security than a paper wallet can guarantee. Use this functional set to permanently protect your sensitive data from extreme heat, moisture, harsh substances and hackers. Delivery:3x Private Key stainless steel plate (front and back writeable)
