Ledger Announces the Partnership with Crypto Exchange FTX

Ledger, a global leader in security and infrastructure solutions for cryptocurrencies and blockchain applications, yesterday announced that it has formed a partnership with FTX, a leading global cryptocurrency exchange.

As a result of this partnership, FTX’s liquidity, leverage and trading options will be accessible through Ledger’s secure self-custody application, Ledger Live. With this integration, Ledger Live users in 150 countries can trade across 300 digital asset pairs, combined with low fees and the knowledge that they are completely in control of their funds.  

“This is an important innovation in crypto trading,”said FTX Founder and CEO Sam Bankman-Fried.“Investors are looking for increased security and self-custody solutions without sacrificing liquidity, leverage and trading options. The partnership between FTX and Ledger addresses this pain point for the marketplace, by providing quick access to trading while assets remain fully secure.”

“Ledger is the number 1 choice for serious crypto investors. More than 15% of all crypto assets are secured by the more than 4 million Ledger Nanos sold since 2014,”added Ledger CEO Pascal Gauthier.“In the past, they would need to move their assets to an exchange, trade, and move back again. Now serious traders and investors can do everything right from the security of their Ledger Nano.”

This week, FTX US has selected Eventus Systems​, a leading global provider of multi-asset class trade surveillance and market risk solutions for trade surveillance and risk monitoring of crypto spot, futures and options markets.
