Ledger has introduced Ledger Agent Stack, an open-source toolkit designed to allow artificial intelligence agents to interact with cryptocurrency wallets without ever gaining control of private keys. This new toolkit enables AI agents to perform functions such as reading wallet balances, analyzing portfolios, and preparing transactions. However, a core security feature requires users to explicitly approve every sensitive action, including transaction execution, on a physical Ledger hardware device.
