[Feature] Tempted to Buy the Latest iPod-Lookalike Ledger Wallet? Hold on, Here Are Tips to Save You Some Money

Ledger, one of the most notable crypto wallet companies, recently announced its latest innovation at its conference in Paris. Collaborating with the inventor of the iPod, Ledger aims to build the next generation of Web3 hardware. The newest hardware wallet is called the “Ledger Stax” and looks identical to Apple’s iconic product. For the full specifications, please visit the home page at https://shop.ledger.com/pages/ledger-stax . If you are tempted to bring the wallet back home, you are at the right place. In today’s article, I am about to share a little trick to save money on Ledger Stax.

Behold the fancy iPod-lookalike Ledger Stax

The retail price of a Ledger Stax is US$279; the price may vary depending on your location. It is arguably more expensive than the other Ledger wallets selling for $79 and $149. However, there is a chance to buy it at a discounted price. The holders of [ Ledger ] Market Pass - Genesis Edition NFT can mint the Ledger Stax bundle at the cost of 0.22 ETH (~$271), which comes with 2 NFTs: the Ledger Stax NFT and the Art on Ledger Stax Mint Pass NFT. The first NFT allows holders to redeem a Ledger Stax and a free protective case; the latter allows holders to mint a random NFT artwork from the ‘Art on Ledger Stax Collection’. If you are looking to buy only the Ledger Stax wallet, you can get the Ledger Stax NFT at a lower-than-retail price of 0.2084 ETH (~$258) on the secondary market now.

Besides buying the Ledger Stax NFT on the marketplace, you may also get a chance to mint the bundle later by registering through PREMINT to join the allowlist or wait until the public sales open. To register for the PREMINT raffle, you must be one of the following NFTs holders. You have to note that the allowlist spot will be overallocated; winning the raffle doesn’t mean you are guaranteed to mint.

If the 10,000 bundles are not sold out, the public sale will be opened on 15^th December; everyone will get a chance to mint. I suggest anyone buying the Ledger Stax should go for the bundle mint instead of pre-ordering, as the bundle comes with a protective case and a free NFT mint pass. You may even sell the mint pass on the secondary marketplace for an extra savings of 0.0489 ETH (~$60).

Even though there are 10,000 Market Pass NFTs circulated, the market reaction didn’t seem as overwhelming as I thought. Two days had passed since the announcement; there were only 910 bundles minted as of the time of writing, which is lesser than 10% of the total supply. If the progress of the sale is as slow as it is now, you might be seeing an even lower floor price of the Ledger Stax NFT. So, wait a bit; there is a chance to purchase a cheaper Ledger Stax!
