I just received the Ledger Nano S hardware wallet. As my crypto portfolio is growing I thought it was time to buy a hardware wallet. I will make some follow up videos on how I set it up.<br />

<h4>
Ledger Nano attestation security demo</h4>
The Ledger Nano S came packaged without a seal and just had some foil rapping. If you watched my video you know I was a bit suprised about that. But all was soon cleared up as I opened the packaging and read the "Dit you notice?" message. Here is the video I mention and that explains how your Ledger Nano S is verified each time you connect it. <br />

Making the Ledger Nano S connect on Ubuntu<br />
Setting up de Nano S is easy. I just followed the instructions on screen and I looked at <a href="http://start.ledgerwallet.com/">http://start.ledgerwallet.com</a>. After setup was done I tried to connect the Nano S to the browser wallet, but it did not connect. A quick search found me the solution at <a href="https://ledger.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115005165269-What-if-Ledger-Wallet-is-not-recognized-on-Linux-">https://ledger.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115005165269-What-if-Ledger-Wallet-is-not-recognized-on-Linux-</a><br />
<br />
On Ubuntu based linux distros it suffices to run following command in the terminal:<br />
<br />
wget -q -O - https://www.ledgerwallet.com/support/add_udev_rules.sh | sudo bash<br />
<br />
This will configure some rules for pluggable devices.<br />
