Ledger urges self-custody to avoid asset restrictions and delistings
Ledger warns on custody risk

Ledger calls attention to the risks digital asset holders face from third-party actions such as restrictions, delistings, trading pauses, or forced relocations.

The company argues that self-custody ensures uninterrupted access to assets, insulating users from decisions made by centralized exchanges or service providers. The message comes amid industry debates over secure storage and user autonomy in cryptocurrency management.

Ledger recently launched stablecoin yield features within its wallet, integrating protocols such as Morpho, Aave and Compound to offer user rewards on digital assets, as reported in a previous article. The company has also cautioned that Bitcoin’s threat comes more from delayed crypto adaptation than from advances in quantum computing, according to another earlier report. These developments reflect Ledger's continued focus on user control and risk awareness in digital asset management.
