Commercially available Bitcoin hardware wallets have reached a significant milestone as they celebrate their tenth anniversary. The world's first hardware wallet, the Trezor Model One, was launched on July 29, 2014, marking the beginning of a thriving industry.
Today, the hardware wallet sector is highly competitive, with brands like Ledger, SafePal, Keystone, Coldcard, and others vying for market share. Ledger's Chief Technology Officer, Charles Guillemet, revealed that Ledger's devices now secure over 20 percent of the overall crypto market, indicating the growing importance of hardware wallets in safeguarding digital assets.
