Ledger and Merlin, a decentralized finance (DeFi) portfolio tracker, announced their new partnership on Dec. 13 to bring live DeFi performance analytics to Ledger Live users. The app, which connects to Ledger’s cold storage wallets, services over 5 million users.
The newly integrated DeFi tracker connects over 1,000 DeFi protocols across ten blockchain networks. Users will have access to performance metrics and profits and losses reports, along with aggregated reports of gas spent and calculated yields.

Jean-François Rochet, the vice president of international development at Ledger, said all of these new integrations help streamline the user experience.
