Hardware wallet provider Ledger has released a new touchscreen wallet following the introduction of its first touchscreen model, Ledger Stax.

New Step from the Ledger Team
The company also launched the Ledger Security Key with Flex. This feature is available in both Stax and Flex products and can be used for two-factor authentication （2FA）. Gauthier said:
“This allows secure, passwordless login to many services using the open FIDO2 standard for keys. It can also be used for 2FA.”
The product is significantly cheaper than Stax. While Flex is priced at $249, Stax is priced at $399. The product will be available on the company’s website and in Best Buy stores across the United States.
Details on the Subject
According to Gauthier, wallets need three things to be truly secure. These include a secure element chip to generate and store private keys, a secure operating system built on a secure element, and a secure display managed by a secure element. The executive claimed that only Ledger devices check all three boxes.
The executive also claimed that Stax and Flex have the only secure touchscreens in the world supported by a secure element chip. Gauthier said that all other touchscreens, including those on mobile phones or other hardware wallets, are not secure.
