Major players in the hardware crypto wallet space, Ledger and Trezor, have unveiled their 2025 models, offering users powerful new options to keep their digital assets secure through advanced self-custody solutions. Paris-based Ledger introduced the Ledger Nano Gen5, marking a strategic rebrand by dropping the term “hardware wallet” and instead calling their devices “Ledger signers.” This device features a larger touchscreen, Bluetooth connectivity, and the recently launched Ledger Recovery Key, all packaged at $179 (or 179 euros). The design continues Ledger’s collaboration with tech icon Tony Fadell and Apple designer Susan Kare, delivering a sleek user experience.
Meanwhile, Prague’s Trezor rolled out the Safe 7, its first quantum-ready hardware wallet. Equipped with dual secure elements, Bluetooth, wireless charging, and the ability to receive post-quantum updates, the Safe 7 paves the way for future-proof security in a rapidly evolving tech landscape. Priced at 249 euros, it also stands out as the first Trezor device to support wireless connections with iPhones and other gadgets.
Both Ledger and Trezor affirm ongoing support for their previous models, emphasizing continued security updates and enhanced functionality, assuring users that their older devices remain viable and secure. The innovations in these new wallets underscore the companies’ commitment to bridging cutting-edge technology with usability, preparing users for both present and future cryptographic challenges.
