Against this backdrop, Chorus One and Ledger announced a collaboration that brings institutional staking directly into the Ledger Enterprise platform.

Private keys remain protected by Ledger’s secure hardware, while Chorus One operates the validator infrastructure. Does this structure finally remove one of the biggest barriers to institutional staking?
