I’m sharing here our grant proposal to bring Ledger Live integration into the new developed Zcash shielded App.
This project’s main objective is to integrate the new Zcash Ledger Shielded application with Ledger Live to enable transparent transaction support. While we intend to explore shielded transaction integration in a subsequent phase, our initial focus is on delivering transparent transaction support within a reasonable timeframe to ensure a successful and timely release.
To enable integration, we will also apply necessary changes to the Zcash shielded Ledger application and conduct a required security audit with a third party auditor approved by Ledger.
Correct me if am wrong but other wallets such as Trezor did not need extra funding to support transparent ZEC addresses. Why should Ledger be an exception especially after the whole fiasco with stuck funds?
Currently, our forked version of zecWallet Lite is the only wallet supporting the new Zcash shielded Ledger app. While this fork facilitated the initial release and unlocking of funds, it lacks user-friendliness and recent Zcash improvements.
Integrating the Zcash shielded Ledger app into Ledger Live would provide a much-needed user-friendly interface. As a first step, we are focusing on enabling transparent address support, with shielded transaction support to be investigated at a later stage once the app is integrated.
i do not support this proposal, ledger showed zero interest in Zcash and it’s community. the money requested here is better invested into another project.
я готов подать в суд на компанию леджер, за то что они фактически заморозили мои активы zec, предлагают что бы я свои сид фразы предоставил сторонней организации кошельку ywallet и в последствии не будут нести ответственность за утрату активов, кто готов подать коллективное исковое завление в суд на компанию леджер?
I understand your frustration and the feeling of lost trust. While we aren’t Ledger, we’ve been close collaborators on numerous projects and have experience navigating the process of public releases. It’s a complex undertaking, and timelines are often outside our direct control. However, I want to assure you that full Ledger Live support for this new app is crucial. Without it, the community won’t have the user experience it deserves.
We are not Ledger and don’t have details about your situation. However, if we can assist you, please contact us at ledger@zondax.ch. We’ve created this guide which might help you unlock your ZEC shielded assets if they were sent to the old app: Unlocking Your Zcash: A Step-b...
Our new proposal aims to bring send and receive functionality for the new Zcash shielded app within Ledger Live.
the transparent app should not be funded by the zcash community. every other hw wallet got it right and it works, why not ledger?
ledger doesn’t care about anything else than money. they lost all their values that they once were standing for. starting with the unencrypted data leak of all their users, to building a seed extraction tool and now pooping on the zcash community.
as @zkcroc said, we should use social media and all available channels to get the zcash community moving away from ledger. if they care about privacy and a project that set the foundation for a lot of things in this space, than they have to start walking a few steps towards us. and until they do that, every cent invested there is a waste of money and time.
in my opinion we should be turning the other cheek, and do the best.
lately Binance and Ledger challenge Zcash a lot
however its in our interest,
and in our responsibility to show that we can fight for our place.
with the new Zebrad and Zallet, it is going to be the most stable integration by far,
isnt it?
