Ledger's announcement notes this same functionality is coming to "many more web3 apps" soon. 

This is the second major NFT development from Ledger this week.

Thus far, Ledger has sold 3,640 of a possible 10,000 NFTs at the 0.22 ETH mint price.

[ Ledger ] Market, a secure mint distribution platform built by the popular hardware wallet company, is airdropping NFT artworks to its Genesis Pass holders.

"[ LEDGER ] Market, the world’s first secure mint distribution platform, offers [the] first in a series of original art to its Genesis Pass holders, dropping their generative art collectible with Agoria," the press release email reads. "With eight years as trusted innovators in the space of digital assets, this marks the official launch of [ L ] Market’s Artist Program series, an integrated opportunity for artists to release NFTs with the hardware and safety of Ledger behind them."

The first in a series of original art comes from {agoria}, a biological generative art project, and Johan Lescure. The NFTs come together in an interactive way through the project's website l-ai.agoria.dev. The collection is called Agoria {Comp-nd} x [ L ] Market.

"With a great history built on tangible success, Ledger is dropping this innovative collection of generative art NFTs based on the existing piece {Compend-AI} 2022 SX #1 from Agoria in collaboration with Johan Lescure," the press release continues. "Driven by Agoria’s global imagery, and complemented by Lescure’s co-created algorithm, the result is a breathtaking combination of primordial patterns. This biological generative art is reminiscent of the origin of life. Breaking down the massive original piece, which is a whopping 20.2 ft × 10 ft at 300 DPI, {Compend-AI} 2022 SX #1 will be divided and minted into 10,082 512 px × 512 px NFTs to be airdropped on Tuesday, Nov. 22 to all [ L ] Market Genesis Pass holders, the work will effectively be spread across the Ledger ecosystem."

Ledger Market Pass Snapshot Coming Oct. 26

A snapshot for an airdropped work from electronic music producer and artist Agoria will take place Oct. 26 at 8 a.m. ET.

Addresses holding the Genesis Edition of Ledger Market Pass will receive an NFT "within 14 days" for each pass in their wallet. The work, called "{Compend-AI}", is a 72,704-by-36,352-pixel piece split into 10,082 squares and was made in collaboration with Johan Lescure.

"Once I've built the most personal dataset, the second part was to look for patterns or similarities with the Living. My friend Johan Lescure has then been essential here. We tricked the algorithms to reveal what the eye couldn't see inside those data materials. Insanely, we are revealing forms and patterns really close to the living," said Agoria, on the website.

Any Ledger passes placed in Sudoswap pools at the time of the snapshot will not receive an airdropped work.

Wallets that hold 16 or more Ledger passes will receive a "consolidated square or rectangle" of "adjacent pieces selected by Agoria."

The airdrop is free.

Ledger Market Genesis Pass NFTs are getting scooped up by sharp wallets over the last 24 hours with five net buys and 61 unique sharp traders entering the ecosystem, according to Lucky Trader's Sharp Report. 

A sharp wallet is defined as any crypto wallet that has at least 50 total transactions and has profited at least 50 ETH.

Ledger Market Genesis Passes are up more than 500 percent in total volume traded over the last six hours following a Rug Radio Twitter Spaces where the project announced it will reveal its first partner project drop and open minting within the next two weeks. It is also up more than 450 percent in total sales and seven percent in floor price, according to Lucky Traders Project Rankings.

There is current speculation around which NFT project will be the first Ledger Market Genesis Pass partner, and consensus seems to suggest Brick, an artistic and education hub created by hardcore punk band Trash Talk.

The NFT will grant holders access to a creative space that serves as a music venue by night and studio by day. The location is in Los Angeles. Non-locals will have access to metaverse land where all concerts and classes will be streamed.
