To be precise we are talking about:
- Polkadot (DOT), a project that has recently launched its mainnet;
- Kusama (KSM), a project linked to Polkadot, which is basically a “canary network”;
- Solana (SOL), a blockchain that uses PoH (Proof of History) as a consensus protocol;
- Elastos (ELA), hybrid blockchain using a hash power system similar to Bitcoin but with the addition of DPoS. It is a chain focused on the development of decentralized applications (dApp);
- IOV, a service linked to Cosmos that is used to buy Starname.
How to use Zilliqa on Ledger
As usual, in order to manage these new crypto assets on Ledger, it is necessary to install the relevant applications on the hardware wallet.
To do so, it is essential to download Ledger Live on the PC, go to the “Manager” menu and confirm access to the Ledger.
At this point locate the crypto or blockchain to add and click on the “Download” button.
Surely this is a very interesting novelty and requested by all those who use these cryptocurrencies.
By now there are over 1500 tokens supported by Ledger, one of the most famous and used hardware wallet in the world, although only last month a new vulnerability was discovered.

All these positive developments seem to be reflected in the price of the ZIL crypto, which is now at position 69 of CoinMarketCap and is trading at around $0.15, an increase of 4%.
