Ian Rogers, who is Ledger’s chief experience officer, has announced the news at the Non-Fungible Conference (NFC) on Monday. He stated that the goal behind the partnership is to bring security into The Sandbox’s virtual world while at the same time providing Ledger with a place in The Sandbox to educate people about cryptocurrency.

Rogers thanked The Sandbox and Sebastien Borget, the company’s co-founder and chief operations officer, for the opportunity. Rogers also noted that Ledger will provide custom Ledger Nanos to SAND owners as part of the partnership.

In a recent interview, Rogers had pointed out that educating people about security was of utmost importance in the partnership with Sandbox.

Rogers had stated, “The reality is that educated people become Ledger customers, and so we just want to make sure that all people have all the education they need to be safe and to properly manage this incredible kind of rights and freedoms that they have of self custody.”

A spokesperson for Ledger said in a recent interview that more details regarding the partnership will be announced at a later date.
