Uniswap and Ledger Partner for Seamless DeFi Swaps in Ledger Live

Uniswap Labs and Ledger have joined forces to make token swaps simpler and safer. With their latest integration, users can now trade directly on Uniswap without leaving the Ledger Live app, ensuring their assets remain protected by Ledger’s hardware wallets.

The integration is powered through the Uniswap Trading API, which grants access to the functionality of the Uniswap decentralized exchange from within Ledger Live. “Our mission is to unlock value through universal exchange,” said Mary-Catherine Lader, COO of Uniswap Labs. “Partnering with Ledger allows us to create a smoother, safer experience for self-custody users.

The key aspect of this integration is the “clear signing.” It simply means that users will see and understand the details of their transactions in plain language before they actually sign, adding in an extra layer of security. In the words of Ian Rogers, Chief Experience Officer at Ledger: “Clear signing is the only secure way users should be authorizing transactions.”

For one, the integration allows Ethereum-based token swaps, such as exchanging ETH for stablecoins directly within Ledger Live.

Ledger, which has sold over 7 million devices worldwide and secures more than 20% of global crypto assets, sees this as a big step forward. Ian Rogers summed it up: “Ledger Live lets you earn yield, buy, send, and now swap your digital assets with Uniswap – all while staying secure.”
