Sotheby‘s, a global leader in the fine arts industry, and Ledger, a prominent on-chain security firm, have announced an innovative partnership. This collaboration introduces two key elements: an exclusive co-branded Ledger Nano X and a series of educational materials jointly developed by Ledger Academy for Sotheby’s Metaverse.
Exclusive Nano X Edition
Beginning in 2024, individuals who win top bids for digital art at Sotheby’s will receive a limited edition Ledger Nano X. Future plans also involve incorporating the Ledger Stax model into upcoming offerings.
In the digital realm, concerns regarding security, self-custody, and decentralization are on the rise. The introduction of Nano X wallets underscores Ledger’s commitment to ensuring collectors have confidence in their security measures.
Educational Series
Adding depth to this partnership is an educational series presented through Ledger Academy on Sotheby’s Metaverse platform. This content will provide collectors with insights into essential web3 fundamentals, covering topics such as self-custody and best practices for web3 security.
Ledger has previously collaborated with luxury brands like AMBUSH, RTFKT, Fendi, and others, solidifying its reputation as a trusted hardware wallet provider.
Now that the dust has settled around the previous controversy related to the Ledger Recover feature, which inadvertently gave third parties access to users’ private keys, the company is poised to move forward in the right direction. Ledger remains committed to its core mission of ensuring long-term security and preservation for digital art and assets.
