Ledger is adding Vertcoin support

Last week, we officially announced that Vertcoin support was coming to the Ledger Nano S and Ledger Blue. For those unfamiliar, Ledger wallets allow you to store your private keys offline on a secure hardware device. With this news coming less than 30 days after we announced TREZOR 2 support, we couldn't be any more excited. We’ve been working hard behind the scenes and we’re excited for what’s to come. We expect to be available on Ledger mid October via a software update.

Introducing VertDocs!

We’re excited to announce a new project we’ve been working on, VertDocs! VertDocs is an all-in-one documentation suite detailing everything from Vertcoin mining to troubleshooting your wallet. With tons of new faces joining the Vertcoin community every day, we want to make it as easy as possible for newcomers to get started. We expect VertDocs to be available to the public in the coming weeks so stay tuned.

Vertcoin is now available on Bittylicious

You can now purchase Vertcoin with GBP directly at Bittylicious.com. One of our top priorities right now is to make Vertcoin available to as many people as we possible can. Bittylicious is great source for purchasing Vertcoin in the UK. Expect more exchanges to be added in the future.

Vertcoin Developer AMA: A Success

On August 26th we hosted a live AMA on Reddit to allow the community a chance to hang out with the devs and ask us anything. Thousands of people came to read and hundreds asked questions. We had a blast and hope everyone who participated did too. If you want to read all of the questions and answers, head over to r/vertcoin.
