Learning Ledger
Use a hardware wallet — entirely from code. Walks step by step from the threat model that justifies hardware wallets, through the byte-level Ledger protocol (APDUs, BIP32 paths, RLP, EIP-712, Solana messages), to a capstone where you build a multi-chain signer module that talks to a Ledger across Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana. Even mix of readings, code-with-tests challenges, and quizzes — no device required to follow along; every exercise is a pure-function implementation of the protocol primitive the Ledger SDK uses internally.
