If you’re ready to take control of your crypto, the Ledger® Live Wallet⋇ is your perfect starting point. Designed to work seamlessly with Ledger's trusted hardware wallets like the Ledger Nano S Plus and Ledger Nano X, Ledger Live is your secure, all-in-one solution for managing digital assets confidently and safely.
The Ledger® Live Wallet⋇ is more than just a wallet—it's a full-featured crypto management platform. It lets you buy, sell, swap, stake, and monitor your cryptocurrencies, all while keeping your private keys offline with the help of Ledger’s hardware wallets.
Whether you’re holding Bitcoin, Ethereum, or thousands of other tokens, Ledger Live gives you the tools to track and manage your portfolio in real time—right from your desktop or mobile device.
Starting with Ledger is simple. Here’s how to set up your Ledger® Live Wallet⋇ in just a few steps:
Before anything else, unbox your Ledger device and ensure it’s genuine. Every new Ledger comes with a sealed box containing the device, a USB cable, recovery sheets, and setup instructions.
Go to the official site at ledger.com and download the Ledger Live app for desktop or mobile. This app acts as the control center for your hardware wallet.
Connect your device using the included cable. Ledger Live will walk you through the setup, including choosing a PIN and writing down your 24-word recovery phrase. This step is crucial—your recovery phrase is your backup if the device is ever lost or damaged. Never store it online or share it.
Once your device is set up, Ledger Live lets you install apps (like Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc.) on your device and add accounts. You can then start receiving, sending, and viewing your balances securely.
With your Ledger® Live Wallet⋇ ready, you can now:
Security is the foundation of Ledger’s ecosystem. By combining the Ledger Live Wallet⋇ with a hardware device, you get the best of both worlds: convenience and top-tier protection.
So whether you're new to crypto or a seasoned investor, getting started with Ledger® means gaining the peace of mind that your digital assets are always under your control.
