Not much to say...


https://www.coindesk.com/intel-ledger-partner-cryptocurrency-storage-integration/

"Cryptocurrency hardware startup Ledger has announced a new partnership with tech giant Intel.

The tie-up sees Ledger integrating its operating system, BOLOS, into Intel's Software Guard Extensions (SGX) secure storage product line in a bid to provide new avenues for storing cryptocurrency holdings.

The announcement follows a similar deal between Ledger and Gemalto, which revealed a partnership earlier this month that was also focused on secure storage.

The concept centers around the idea of creating a so-called "enclave", within which private keys are stored and transactions are both generated and signed. For Intel, that focus on hardware has been a defining characteristic to date, including its work with startup 21 Inc on mining chips.

"Following the launch of a line of hardware wallets based on our operating system integrated in a secure chip, working with a leading player like Intel is a unique opportunity to keep providing our growing client base with innovative solutions for cryptocurrency and blockchain applications," Eric Larchevêque, Ledger's CEO, said of the partnership.

Wallets set to utilize the Intel/Ledger solution include provider services Electrum and and MyEtherWallet, according to a release."

Sounds like the Ledger boys are going places. Still don't understand why you can only store 5 type of coins on a Ledger Nano S. They should fix that immediately.

I am with you 100% there.  Maybe to sell more Ledger? Cheesy

one more good news...esp for NEO holders.


https://www.reddit.com/r/NEO/comments/78cu6d/neo_ledger_nano_s_slowly_but_surely/

NEO Ledger Nano S - Slowly but Surely self.NEO


It always seems the last bit takes forever, but that's because it's not just one person coding, it's everyone else trying to understand the code.
Ledger App getting closer

The Ledger CTO said the 'technical review is done, and the design team is now working on new icons'.

https://www.reddit.com/r/ledgerwallet/comments/778c0s/any_update_on_neo/

Well, on one hand I kinda liked my icon, but on the other hand it did kinda look like a programmer made it.

So, maybe have an app by November? Balls in their court now.
