<h4><strong>If you’ve ever wanted to trade something like <a href="https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/bitcoin" target="_blank" rel="noopener">BTC</a> for ETH without jumping through hoops, now’s your chance. </strong></h4> 
<p>Users can do it all directly from their Ledger device, keeping their assets safe. Let’s discover more about THORChain.</p> 
<h5><strong>Swap Cryptos Securely from your Ledger Device</strong></h5> 
<p>When it comes to swapping different cryptocurrencies, most people use exchanges or platforms that rely on something called “wrapped tokens”. <a href="https://www.coinbase.com/en-es/learn/your-crypto/what-is-wrapped-crypto" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Wrapped tokens</a> are like a copy of your crypto. So, if you wanted to swap Bitcoin for Ethereum, you’d have to use a “wrapped” version of one of them. The problem? When you use wrapped tokens, you’re giving up control of your original crypto, which can be risky.</p> 
<p>THORChain solves this problem by allowing users to swap native assets. You’re trading the real deal—no wrapped tokens involved. You don’t have to give up control of your assets, which means your crypto stays safer.</p>

 <p>With <a href="https://twitter.com/THORChain?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@THORChain</a>, you can swap native assets directly from within the security of your Ledger device—like swapping BTC for ETH—without relying on wrapped tokens giving up custody of your assets.</p>

<p>Ledger is known for its <a href="https://www.altcoinbuzz.io/?s=hardware+wallets" target="_blank" rel="noopener">hardware wallets</a>, which help keep your crypto safe by storing your private keys offline. With THORChain now rolling out on Ledger Live, you get the best of both worlds: secure storage and easy cross-chain swaps.</p> 
<p>Cross-chain swaps allow you to trade between different blockchains. You could trade Bitcoin for Ethereum, Litecoin, or other cryptocurrencies—all without leaving the security of your Ledger device.</p> 
<h5><strong>More About THORChain</strong></h5> 
<p><a href="https://thorchain.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">THORChain</a> is decentralized, which means no one person or company is in charge. This reduces the risk of hacks or fraud that can happen on centralized exchanges. It’s like keeping your money in a vault that only you have the key to.</p>
