I find it reprehensible that a crypto company as ubiquitous as Ledger doesn’t provide a way to pay directly with crypto. Instead they force you to use either a credit card, Crypto.com, PayPal or Bitpay.
Am I just being cranky?
Are there certified resellers that do?
reply
I would never buy a hardware wallet from a reseller.

I misunderstood the question. I don’t know about certified resellers.

Coinkite/Coldcard, Keystone, and Trezor. To name a few. Coinkite and Keystone accept BTC on-chain. Trezor accepts both on-chain and Lightning.

I think that's consistent

нет... это плохой кошелёк. исходный код должен быть открытым. только тогда ты сможешь убедиться что там нет вируса или шпиона. сатоши так и написал. я ткрываю код для всех. и вот что мы в нем увидели. супер защиту от спама, супер стойкость к квантовым вычесление лишь только мысли о том что сразу поднимим сложность хеша на 512 или 1024 и так далее до без конечности. пока цыфры не закончатся.

Ledger is a company from France and is subjected to France and EU regulations.
Do you now if a company based in France is allowed to received payments in "crypto"?
In the case they find ways around regulations and put their HQ and manufacture in random countries. Would you buy the hardware from them to store all your wealth in that case?
@ewashent @theinstagibbs . Do you really would even considered to buy a hardware wallet from a "certified" reseller?

Trezor is a company from the Czech Republic and is subjected to Czech and EU regulations.
It's very easy to accept payments in Bitcoin, you just need to spend few hours of research to learn how to do it properly.

Not sure why certified is in quotes but yes if the manufacturing company has a proper relationship then why not.
reply
Because that can compromise the device! If you think that makes sense taking the risk to save a few bucks purchasing the device where you are going to store your wealth. We just live in completely different realities
reply
Now that you mention it that does seem odd and kind of makes me not want to trust them.
reply
because they r doodoo :) coldcard for the win. Not to mention why would u wanna go with a cold storage that stores your keys on a digital ledgers?? meaning someone else has them and your keys are compromised...
reply
I agree. However, to be fair, I don't think anyone at Ledger actually has your keys. The device is encrypted.
reply
Still your keys touch the internet...and its out there somewhere meaning there is an attack vector why take the chance...just go with cold card and air gap it
reply
I think the better question to ask is why you want to hand over more data to ledger than you already do
