Part 9/13:
Ledger currently maintains partially open-source software, mainly driven by hardware manufacturer obligations — specifically, the chips supplied by ST Microelectronics. Pascal explains that full open sourcing presents challenges because of hardware dependencies, but the company is open to the idea should security and supplier agreements permit.
Development of Advanced Features:
The topic of advanced features like coin control and full node integration is also addressed. Ledger is actively developing and testing such features in experimental modes, aiming to cater both to beginner users and power users. For example, coin control is available in beta, but broader integration into user-friendly apps remains a work in progress.
