The future of finance belongs to those who own their keys. With Ledger, your crypto stays under your control — offline, safe, and always accessible. Follow the official setup guide below to begin.
Setting up your Ledger wallet is your first step toward digital independence. Follow these essential steps to ensure your assets are protected from the start.
Always purchase directly from Ledger.com or authorized resellers. This ensures your device is genuine and untampered.
Check the package for damage or signs of tampering. Ledger devices come with tamper-proof protection, and authenticity checks are built-in.
Go to Ledger.com/start to download the official Ledger Live app. This companion software manages setup, firmware, and assets in one interface.
Connect your device, select “Set up as new,” and create a secure PIN. This is your first protection layer against unauthorized access.
Your 24-word phrase is the ultimate backup for your crypto. Keep it offline, safe, and private — Ledger never stores or asks for it.
Use Ledger Live to install apps for Bitcoin, Ethereum, and more. Add accounts and start receiving funds directly into your secure wallet.
Ledger devices are engineered to defend your digital wealth with multi-layered security. Below is what makes Ledger unique in hardware protection.
Ledger uses a CC EAL5+ certified chip — the same standard found in passports and banking cards — ensuring private keys never leave the device.
Each Ledger runs a cryptographic check during setup to verify authenticity. This prevents firmware manipulation or counterfeits from working.
Unlike hot wallets, Ledger stores your private keys offline. Transactions are signed locally, so malware and hackers can’t steal your funds.
Ledger’s code and security processes are open to external audit. The company collaborates with researchers worldwide to strengthen every update.
Ledger offers more than protection — it gives you control, flexibility, and access to the new digital economy.
With Ledger, you become your own bank. Manage thousands of cryptocurrencies securely without trusting intermediaries.
Ledger partners with DeFi, NFT, and staking platforms — letting you grow your portfolio safely across the crypto ecosystem.
Constant updates keep Ledger ahead of threats. New coins, better UI, and tighter security roll out seamlessly through Ledger Live.
If your device is lost or broken, you can restore your funds using the 24-word phrase — no third party needed.
