According to Foresight News, according to TechCrunch, the hardware wallet Ledger has launched a browser plug-in that aims to provide a similar experience to crypto wallets such as MetaMask. Ledger said it is not a hot wallet, but a cold wallet that allows users to interact directly with DApps via Bluetooth. In addition, it has two functions to ensure the safety of users when interacting with crypto applications: analyzing smart contracts and warning users whether transactions may be malicious, and simulating transactions to show how it will affect the wallet.

The company said that Ledger Extension is compatible with DApps and platforms based on Ethereum and Polygon, and plans to support more EVM-compatible chains and Solana in the future. The plugin is currently only available for Safari browsers, and additional support for Chromium-based browsers will be launched in the future.
