Just a quick note that it looks like the [Ledger Nano S hardware wallet](https://www.ledgerwallet.com/products/ledger-nano-s) will support the likely fork that will spawn Bitcoin Cash (BCC) on August 1, 2017.

I tried searching on the official [Ledger knowledge base](http://support.ledgerwallet.com/knowledge_base/topics/search) with no hits, as you can see by the following search links:

- http://support.ledgerwallet.com/knowledge_base/topics/search?search=bcc
- http://support.ledgerwallet.com/knowledge_base/topics/search?search=bitcoin%20cash
- http://support.ledgerwallet.com/knowledge_base/topics/search?search=bitcoin%20fork

However, this Ledger blog post does address this upcoming hard fork:

* [Ledger: Securing your free “Bitcoin Cash” stash](https://blog.ledger.co/securing-your-free-bitcoin-cash-stash-d50aff765688)

This article confirms that holders of BTC in the Ledger Nano S wallet will be getting BCC and also mentions that there will be a tool made available for the Nano S that will facilitate an optimal splitting strategy for the associated BCC asset.

Additionally, the Ledger BTC Chrome extension app will eventually provide a selector switch for BTC/BCC, similar to how their Ethereum Chrome app has the ETH/ETC selection switch:

_<sub>If your Bitcoin funds are on a Ledger hardware wallet devices, you will automatically get an additional BCC balance (same amount than your BTC balance) after the activation of the fork. Our Chrome app will provide in time a BTC/BCC selector.</sub>_
