Recently there was a split between the team behind MEW and a new paper wallet site opened up. Is MEW still safe to use with a Ledger?
It is still very safe to use and nothing has changed. As long as you are not on a phishing site and you keep your private key safe to the address you are holding your assets, then you should not have any problem. It is good you asked since security is very important, but the only thing that changed so far is the split between the team. So you should be fine.
