One of the lead developers of crypto wallets software known as Ledger, on Tuesday unveiled a brand new system of adding digital assets to its network. This move is intended to help the firm expand its customer base. The France based firm also revealed that they would inform their customers and followers alike of any new projects every first Tuesday of the month for purposes of transparency. The list of projects added in the month of August this year includes; Vechain (VET), ICON (ICX), POA Network (POA), Wanchain (WAN), Ontology (ONT), Kowala (KUSD), RSK and Partici (PART). These 8 new crypto projects are accessible on Ledger Live, which is a new desktop app that makes it possible to manage numerous virtual assets without the use of browsers or browser applications.
One of the projects listed in the month of August by the Paris based crypto wallet provider known as Partici released a statement of their own. They revealed that their token PART would be available for cold storage Nano S hardware wallets with cold staking abilities enabled. This meant that pure PoS coins kept on hardware storage device could be staked in a safe manner without intermediaries or an internet connection.
In an unprecedented move, the French firm released a link on Trello where users are able to see the new coins Ledger plans to include and give them a thumbs up or down through voting while also giving feedback about the various crypto assets on offer. The Ledger Trello listing contained 27 virtual assets scheduled to soon feature on the platform at the time of this posting. Backing for these new crypto assets will not happen until a couple of months have elapsed. Some of the major projects listed and being considered for backing include; Tezos (XTZ), Cardano (ADA), Nebulas (NAS), ZClassic (ZCL), Monacoin (Mona), IOTA (MIOTA), Lisk (LSK), Waves (WAVES), Syscoin (SYS), EOS (EOS), and Decred (DCR).
A Statement from the Paris based crypto wallet provider stated that the third party application validation process will be broken down into clearer guidelines that will give developers a clearer picture and a more comprehensive guide on best security practices, applications on device interfaces, design requirements and user experiences. Just last week, the crypto wallet software developer based in the French capital, Paris, experienced issues with the ethereum chrome app. This led to the firm requesting clients to switch to Ledger live from the problematic chrome extension.
