It’s not on the 2022 roadmap. It’s a requested feature but the team have many other items to focus on.

I didn’t realize that… very disappointing. I am not comfortable leaving my funds on the blockchain longterm if there is no plant for ledger support. I need that extra layer of security ledger provides.
@Jared @Ducky, is this true its not even on the current list of items the team is working on?

Hey @brico84, yes I personally do agree with you that a hardware wallet is needed for sake of higher level security. 
Unfortunately…yes its true! But not because we aren’t aware of the importance of Ledger wallet usage, but because devs are having lots of works to do atm. To be clear, devs are currently working hard on enhancing our infrastructure, integrating more privacy applications, building wallet extension on web-based, etc. I think you can get more details about those works in the 2022 Roadmap post and Q1 summary post. I guess it’s matter of resource. 
Let’s be a bit more patient. Hardware wallet will come soon (hopefully!).

Following up on this…any update on hardware ledger support?
I keep seeing bridge after bridge added to incognito… and that’s great… but hardware ledger support improves the entire ecosystem and benefits everyone. It would be nice to see some resources dedicated to getting this LONG AWAITED/PROMISED feature implemented.
I support what @brico84 is saying.
Having the Devs work on building bridges and enhancing the infrastructure is all very much needed and is of high value. But from an end users perspective, safety and security of funds protected via a hardware wallet like Ledger is ESSENTIAL.
I’m not saying this will happen, but all it would take is a rouge/disgruntled developer goes and embeds some malicious code in the app that sends our private keys to a bad actor. That would spell the end of this project which is meant to be about protecting users’ privacy.
@Jared / @Ducky, is there a way we can influence Incognito Devs to add Ledger Hardware Wallet Support back on the roadmap, even if it may be a year or so out?
But just FYI, I don’t want to have to use a Ledger Hardware Wallet for every single wallet interaction as that may impact the overall user experience.
Perhaps we could make things simpler for the Developers, by only needing the Ledger wallet for these interactions:
- Withdrawals to External Wallet (requiring the unshielding process)
- Staking/Unstaking to vNodes and pNodes
But having a small scope of work, perhaps this feature can be built faster, maybe? (I’m not a developer so I wouldn’t know)
Anyone else like to share there thoughts?

I will let them know there is still interest from the community and see if we can get it added to our next quarters roadmap.

There is nothing more important to the user, than using a hardwallet to reinforce the security of the wallet where his assets are!
Allowing the ledger is a way to reinforce the security image of incognito (which is what many people are afraid of) and thereby greatly increase fundraising into the protocol.
It’s really a marketing edge (to say the least).
I myself don’t have the courage to leave a lot of money in incognito due to not being able to control it with a hardwallet.

Totally agree with you.
I’d like to deploy more funds on Incognito as I want to use the Earn feature to help grow the liquidity in the Pools.
But I realise I am taking a huge risk without having my crypto assets protected by my Ledger Hardware wallet.
Hey @Jared, can you please tell the Dev team to reach out to the Ledger team to see what are the requirements to be added to the Ledger Support Marketplace.
Can you imagine if Incognito was listed as the 1st Privacy DEX on Ledger Live.
Please LIKE if you think this would be absolutely HUGE for this project so we can send a signal with our thumbs to the Incognito Devs to add Ledger support.

What really stinks is that Ledger was on the roadmap for a long time, and so many people were interested, and we were told to be patient, they are working on it. And then at some point it just DISSAPEARED from the roadmap with no real explanation… meanwhile interest never disappeared and now we are at the point where its like “oh…you guys want ledger? let me talk to the devs, they are not aware”.
We have been waiting YEARS for this. It should be a priority, WAY more so than “new bridges”.
Settle down mate. The team is running a pdex, app, giving support to a growing validator network, built a ton of bridges and adding a bunch of quality of life features (unified coins)…that’s a lot of moving parts. They dont benefit from a bucket load of VC funding. Its their own money and time.
Personally I think ledger support is a waste of time when growth is better served by improving the base features, namely pdex liquidity, partnerships with other projects and building awareness of the project in general.

Thank you @SPAddict25.
We will release our next quarter (aug - oct) roadmap very soon. We expect to answer your hardware wallet questions and more so please keep watch for that announcement.

Unfortunately, I do not agree with this. Although I do not use hardware wallet or consider using it soon, as I see, people want to bring more liquidity but there is no hardware wallet support. Liquidity is an important component of the growth. Especially, pdex liquidity.
Other than this, moving funds to a hardware ledger is one of the most important suggestions done by the experts in today’s Solana hack. Depending on the root cause, this suggestion may not be valuable for this hack but confidence (at least perception) created by hardware ledgers is still high.

I’d bet that the proportion of people in crypto that use a hardware wallet is very low. Is that really a good use of developer time or resources? No point developing a feature if it doesn’t get utilised. Happy to reverse my position if enough ppl show their support for it
Probably this is true but probably this is also true 
That low number of people have so much higher liquidity than the others have. Money is coward, it looks for safe heavens.

Whoa Whoa… Settle down bud! giving your personal opinion? Nobody asked for your personal opinion? how dare you.
Listen man, nobody needs condescending remarks like “settle down mate” on here. I was simply giving my thoughts and opinions on a topic, which is what the forum is for. If you want to discuss all the things the team has done, I am happy to. I have supported the project throughout all the ups and downs and that included the very long promised ledger support that was put on the back burner for pdex v3, app upgrades, P-unification. I (and others) have been very patient as the team worked on all these items, because I agree… they are important aspects of the project. The reason I bring up the ledger support now, is that those things are mostly complete and we are through those hurdles. I now see the team spending an enormous amount of time building bridge after bridge… that’s great, improvements are good. But I certainly don’t think random bridges are more important at this point that hardware ledger support. Which is why I brought this topic up again.
Given the recent responses…I am not the only one who feels this way. If anything, you are on your own in thinking that this is not important.
Opinions are welcome but keep the condescending remarks to yourself.

For those not aware, here is a good thread on Twitter about the hack (link below)
Ledger Hardware support will add confidence and security from such hacks.
My heart goes out to the Solana community and I hope the Incognito Devs are putting in place measures to prevent this from happening to this amazing project.
If anything like what happened to Solana was to happen to Incognito, I think it would spell the end of the project and all the hard work of the Devs. I feel people set the bar higher for “Privacy” projects, hence by adding Ledger Hardware support will be another step towards enabling a higher bar to be set.

Hey @Jared, here’s an idea…
After the Next Roadmap is published, can the Marketing Team send out an email to all folks and also publish a poll on this Community Forum to gather feedback/suggestions and perhaps rank the community members excitement for each of the “Proposed Features” on the roadmap?
Then the marketing team could share the feedback to the Devs and publish the results for all of us to see. Thoughts?
