Media: Ledger wallets maker will cut 10% of staff

Ledger hardware cryptographs manufacturer is considering reducing the company's 20 employees. It is reported by CCN with reference to the French edition of Presse Citron.

Currently, the total staff of the company is 200 people. Thus, the state can be reduced by 10%.

The publication also reports that in 2017 Ledger’s monthly income from sales was about 10 million euros. The company’s website states that over 1.4 million Nano S devices have been sold so far, which makes Ledger the world leader in its market niche. The price of hardware wallets, depending on the model, is in the range of $ 60-270.

However, despite some deterioration in financial position, Ledger does not stop there, creating new products and services. So, in March, the company announced the launch of the Ledger Vault custodial service, which allows you to manage multi-signature wallets, as well as securely and efficiently store digital assets, including ERC-20 bitcoin and tokens.

In January, the French company introduced the Ledger Nano X – an improved version of the Ledger Nano S, with an enlarged screen, more storage space and Bluetooth support.

Also earlier, BlockchainJournal reported that Ledger Nano S received a certificate from the French Cyber Security Agency.
