Uniswap Labs And Ledger Unveil Ledger Live Integration, Enabling Seamless Access To Defi Directly From Self-Custody

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Ledger, the world leader in digital assets security for consumers and enterprises, and Uniswap Labs, the leader in decentralized finance, today announced the integration of the Uniswap Trading API into Ledger Live, enabling seamless swaps from self-custody. Users can now swap tokens on the Uniswap Protocol without leaving the Ledger Live interface, all the while maintaining complete control of their digital assets through Ledger's industry-leading hardware wallets. The Uniswap Trading API is developed and maintained by the same US-based team that built some of the most used blockchain infrastructure and apps.

Swapping through Ledger Live using the Uniswap Trading API will also support clear signing, enabling users to sign transactions with confidence on their Ledger device. Transactions that support clear signing are human-readable and inherently safer than traditional blind signing that is all too common in DeFi. Owners of Ledger Flex and Ledger Stax, the world-first secure touchscreen devices, can use the larger screens to view transaction information at a glance.

Uniswap in Ledger Live will roll out initially on desktop for the Ethereum network only, with support for mobile devices and other networks to follow in the coming months.

“Ledger has evolved from a place you simply hold to your all-in-one solution to securely live your digital life,” said Ian Rogers, Chief Experience Officer (CXO) of Ledger. “You can earn yield, secure your logins, buy, send and swap your digital assets, now with Uniswap, all within Ledger Live. Ledger is proud to collaborate with Uniswap, the number one dApp on the planet, and bring the exceptional user experience, range of tokens and liquidity to every user of Ledger Live.”

“We’re excited that Ledger users can now go direct to the best of DeFi with Uniswap,” said Mary-Catherine Lader, Chief Operating Officer of Uniswap Labs. "Our mission is to unlock value through universal exchange. We’re working with Ledger to simplify the self custody user experience, bringing the power of both teams’ innovation to more people.”

Ledger, celebrating its 10th anniversary in 2024, has sold more than 7 million devices across 180 countries and secures over 20% of the world's crypto assets. The Ledger Live platform serves as a secure companion app for safely managing and growing digital assets all from one place, making it the perfect home for users to also swap on the Uniswap Protocol through the Uniswap Trading API. The Uniswap Protocol has processed over $2.5 Trillion in all-time volume with zero hacks.
