How It Works.

1

Download Ledger Live

Start by downloading Ledger Live from the official Ledger website for your desktop or mobile device. The application is free and available for Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android platforms.

2

Connect Your Ledger Device

Connect your Ledger Nano S, Nano S Plus, Nano X, or Stax to your computer or mobile device. If you're setting up a new device, Ledger Live will guide you through the initialization process, including setting up your PIN and recovery phrase.

3

Add Your Accounts

Install the apps for the cryptocurrencies you want to manage directly onto your Ledger device through Ledger Live. Then, add accounts for each cryptocurrency to start receiving and sending funds.

4

Manage Your Portfolio

Once your accounts are set up, you can view your portfolio, send and receive cryptocurrencies, buy and sell through integrated partners, stake assets for rewards, and access decentralized applications—all while your private keys remain safely stored on your hardware wallet.

Security First.

Security is at the core of everything Ledger Live does. Unlike software wallets that store your private keys on internet-connected devices, Ledger Live works in tandem with your Ledger hardware wallet to ensure your keys never leave the secure element—a certified chip designed to resist sophisticated attacks.

Every transaction you initiate through Ledger Live must be physically verified and confirmed on your Ledger device. This means that even if your computer is compromised by malware, your funds remain completely safe. The transaction details are displayed on your device's screen, allowing you to verify exactly what you're signing before approving.

Ledger Live itself never has access to your private keys or recovery phrase. The application acts as an interface, communicating with your hardware wallet to display balances and broadcast transactions to the blockchain. This architecture ensures that your sensitive information remains isolated and protected at all times.
