Ledger Nano X and Tezos Contest Link.

One of the best ways to protect your cryptocurrency (and to use as a 2FA hardware tool) is to use a hardware wallet like the Ledger Nano S and Nano X. It provides a secure enclave for your private keys. The Nano S was a pretty rudimentary device that does it job adequately, but as time has gone on, it has started to show it's age with it's limited onboard memory... making for a pretty painful (but secure!) experience. It means that you end up needing to swap applications in and out like crazy with a pretty slow on-board processor...

Thankfully, the new iteration of the venerable hardware wallet solved these problems and also updated the connection to a USB C port and also a Bluetooth option for all your transaction signing requirements! Welcome to the Nano X!

Ledger has recently teamed up with a leading cryptocurrency Tezos to giveaway a number of the newer Nano X variants of the hardware wallet. To be in with a chance for this pretty cool contest (Nano Xs up for grabs as well as a Tezos tokens!), you just need to complete the various tasks at this contest link. The more tasks you complete, the higher the tier of prizes that you can be eligible for... I didn't complete all the tasks, just some of the simpler ones, and was able to be eligible for the first tier of the NanoX/Tezos prize. Of course, if you are really crazily into it... you can get yourself up the rankings of the prize tiers. I'm not quite that fanatical!

So, here is the Contest link again!

Even if you don't win, Ledger are having a Christmas sale at the moement... it's a great idea to have a safe place to store your crypto, after all, if they are on an exchange.... not your keys, not your crypto!

Coin Tracking

Looking for a quick and easy way to keep track of your cryptocurrencies? Coin Tracking offers a free service that includes manual tracking or automatic tracking via APIs to exchanges, allowing you to easily track and declare your cryptocurrencies for taxation reports. Coin Tracking can easily prepare tax information sheets that are catered to each countries individual taxation requirements (capital gains, asset taxation, FIFO). Best to declare legally and not be caught out when your crypto moons and you are faced with an unexpected taxation bill (unless you are hyper secure and never attach any crypto with traceable personal information, good luck with that!).

Keep Your Crypto Holdings Safe with Ledger

Ledger is one of the leading providers of hardware wallets with the Ledger Nano S being one of the most popular choices for protecting your crypto currencies. Leaving your holdings on a crypto exchange means that you don’t actually own the digital assets, instead you are given an IOU that may or may not be honoured when you call upon it. Software and web based wallets have their weakness in your own personal online security, with your private keys being vulnerable in transit or whilst being stored upon your computer. Paper wallets are incredibly tiresome and still vulnerable to digital attacks (in transit) and are also open to real world attacks (such as theft/photography).

Supporting a wide range of top tokens and coins, the Ledger hardware wallet ensures that your private keys are secure and not exposed to either real world or digital actors. Finding a happy medium of security and usability, Ledger is the leading company in providing safe and secure access to your tokenised future!
