Ledger Faces Legal Action Over Security Claims in US

Ledger SAS, a European company known for its cryptocurrency hardware wallets, is currently facing legal challenges in the United States. Consumer lawsuits allege misleading advertising about the security of these devices, leading to a ruling by Judge LaShonda A. Hunt of the Northern District of Illinois. The judge determined that while sales contracts mention French law’s applicability, this does not limit the jurisdiction for consumer lawsuits, even if the contracts are primarily relevant to French law. )
