Ledger Live Wallet — Technical Edition

Ledger Live Technical Edition provides comprehensive SDK support for multiple programming languages to accommodate diverse development needs:

• Python: Full-featured library with async/await support, pandas integration, and quantitative analysis tools
• JavaScript/TypeScript: Node.js and browser-compatible SDK with React components and Web3 integration
• Go: High-performance library optimized for backend services and microservices architecture
• Java: Enterprise-grade library with Spring Framework integration and Android compatibility
• C#/.NET: Comprehensive .NET library with Entity Framework integration and Windows application support
• REST API: Language-agnostic RESTful API with OpenAPI specification for any programming language

All SDKs include comprehensive documentation, code examples, and are regularly updated with new features and security enhancements. The APIs maintain consistent behavior across all language implementations while leveraging each language's unique strengths and conventions.

The Technical Edition implements advanced multi-signature (multisig) security with several configuration options:

• M-of-N Schemes: Configurable approval thresholds (e.g., 2-of-3, 3-of-5) with flexible participant management
• Hierarchical Approval: Multi-level approval workflows with role-based permissions and escalation procedures
• Time-Locked Transactions: Scheduled transactions with multiple approval windows and expiration policies
• Hardware Integration: Support for multiple hardware wallets across different geographic locations
• Policy Engine: Custom transaction policies based on amount, destination, and transaction type
• Audit Trail: Complete transaction history with approval signatures and timestamps

The multisig implementation uses standardized protocols like BIP-45 and PSBT (Partially Signed Bitcoin Transactions) for compatibility with other wallet solutions. Enterprise clients can customize approval workflows, implement cold storage integration, and establish compliance controls through the policy engine.

Ledger Live Technical Edition implements tiered rate limiting to ensure system stability while accommodating different usage patterns:

• Basic Tier: 1,000 requests per hour with burst capacity of 100 requests per minute
• Professional Tier: 10,000 requests per hour with burst capacity of 500 requests per minute
• Enterprise Tier: 100,000+ requests per hour with custom burst limits and dedicated resources
• WebSocket Connections: Unlimited real-time data streams with message-based rate limiting

Rate limits can be increased through several methods:

• Tier Upgrades: Moving to higher service tiers with increased limits
• API Key Rotation: Using multiple API keys for different services or applications
• Batching: Combining multiple operations into single API calls where supported
• WebSocket Optimization: Using WebSocket streams instead of REST polling for real-time data
• Enterprise Agreements: Custom rate limits negotiated for high-volume institutional clients

All API responses include rate limit headers (X-RateLimit-Limit, X-RateLimit-Remaining, X-RateLimit-Reset) to help developers manage their API consumption effectively.

Yes, the Technical Edition is specifically designed for seamless integration with enterprise systems through multiple integration points:

• ERP Systems: Pre-built connectors for SAP, Oracle, and other enterprise resource planning systems
• Accounting Software: Integration with QuickBooks, Xero, and other accounting platforms
• Trading Systems: FIX protocol support for integration with institutional trading platforms
• Security Systems: SIEM integration for security information and event management

• Custom Applications: Comprehensive APIs and webhooks for bespoke system integration

The platform supports standard integration protocols including REST APIs, WebSocket streams, webhooks, and file-based batch processing. Enterprise clients can work with our solutions architecture team to design custom integration patterns, implement data synchronization workflows, and establish automated reconciliation processes.

The Technical Edition includes comprehensive compliance features designed for regulated financial institutions:

• Transaction Monitoring: Real-time monitoring for suspicious activities with customizable rule sets
• AML Screening: Integration with leading AML providers for wallet and transaction screening
• Travel Rule Compliance: Automated travel rule implementation for cross-border transactions
