🔑Ledger has introduced the Recovery Key – a physical “spare key” for its hardware wallets. The device allows you to recover access to your crypto wallet in just a few seconds – simply plug in the key and enter your PIN code.
Previously, recovering access required manually entering a seed phrase (12–24 words), which is easy to lose or forget. Now, it’s enough to:
- Insert the Recovery Key into your Ledger device
- Enter your PIN code
Ledger emphasizes that the Recovery Key operates within a secure architecture and does not transmit the seed phrase to any third party. The solution is designed for everyday users – those who want to store crypto securely without technical headaches.
Appearance:
It looks like a small flash drive or chip card that can be kept in a safe or entrusted to someone you trust.
Security:
The seed phrase is never sent online, stored in the cloud, or leaves the device. Everything happens locally within a secure chip.
Who it’s for:
Those who want a reliable backup method for wallet recovery, but don’t want to deal with paper seed phrases, risk losing them, or memorizing English words.
Simplifying recovery is a major step toward the broader adoption of self-custody in the crypto world.
