Hardware wallet Ledger launches offline recovery key for new wallets
Unlike Ledger’s previously released key recovery product, Ledger Recover, the new Ledger Recovery Key is always offline and doesn’t require identification.
Ledger, a major provider of hardware cryptocurrency wallets, has introduced an offline tool for private key recovery to help users regain access to their crypto wallets without relying on cloud-based services or personal data.
Ledger Recovery Key is an offline physical recovery tool allowing Ledger Flex or Ledger Stax users to store their private keys on a smart card with NFC connection, the firm said in an announcement shared with Cointelegraph.
Unlike Ledger’s previously released key recovery product, Ledger Recover, which stores encrypted fragments of recovery phrases in cloud-based hardware security modules, Ledger Recovery Key is always offline and protected by its own PIN.
