2023

• In February, Ledger added full BLS support to the Ledger Nano X firmware, making it technically possible to support credentials migration
• After the Shanghai Upgrade, only validators with updated credentials to 0x01 would be eligible for withdrawals
• In June the BTEC for Ledger Nano X is released

2021

• New withdrawal credentials (0x01) were introduced, allowing validators to withdraw on the Execution Layer once withdrawals would be possible

2020

• The Beacon Chain was launched. It was created to ensure the proof-of-stake consensus logic was sustainable before The Merge.
• The Ledger Nano X firmware was upgraded to allow users to generate 0x00 withdrawal credentials for validators. The same feature was added for Ledger Nano S a couple of months later.
