Welcome to Ledger Live
Ledger® Live Wallet™ is the official application developed by Ledger® to help you manage cryptocurrencies and NFTs securely. Integrated with Ledger Nano X and Nano S Plus, the app provides a powerful interface that combines convenience with unmatched hardware-level security. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced trader, Ledger Live makes it simple to buy, sell, exchange, stake, and monitor your assets in one place.
Step 1: Download Ledger Live
Ledger Live is available on multiple platforms, including Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android. Installing the official app ensures you have access to the latest features and security updates. Once downloaded, you can connect your Ledger device to synchronize your accounts and start managing your portfolio.
Step 2: Install and Set Up
After downloading, open Ledger Live and follow the setup guide. You will be asked to:
- Create a password to secure access to the app
- Connect your Ledger device and confirm the connection
- Optionally enable additional security features such as biometric login
This initial setup ensures your app is linked with your Ledger hardware wallet, keeping private keys safe on the device itself.
Step 3: Add Accounts
With Ledger Live, accounts represent blockchain addresses controlled by your Ledger device. To add accounts:
- Select the cryptocurrency you want to manage, such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, or XRP
- Install the corresponding app on your Ledger device if not already installed
- Add the account in Ledger Live to track balances and transactions
This allows you to monitor your holdings in real time while maintaining full control over your private keys.
Step 4: Buy, Sell, and Exchange Crypto
Ledger Live integrates with trusted partners, allowing you to buy, sell, and swap cryptocurrencies directly in the app. Every transaction requires confirmation on your Ledger device, ensuring maximum security. With this functionality, you no longer need to move assets to third-party exchanges for basic operations, reducing exposure to risks.
Step 5: Staking and Earning Rewards
One of the standout features of Ledger Live is the ability to stake cryptocurrencies and earn passive rewards. Supported assets include Ethereum, Polkadot, Tezos, and more. By staking directly through Ledger Live, you keep your private keys secure on your hardware wallet while participating in network validation and earning rewards.
Track Your Portfolio
Ledger Live provides a complete view of your portfolio’s performance. You can:
- View balances across multiple cryptocurrencies
- Check transaction history
- Analyze portfolio growth with charts and statistics
This makes Ledger Live not just a wallet, but also a portfolio manager that helps you stay informed about your digital investments.
Security and Best Practices
Ledger Live was built with security as a priority. While the app itself provides access and management features, your private keys remain locked inside your Ledger device. To maximize protection:
- Always download Ledger Live from the official Ledger source
- Update the app and your device firmware regularly
- Never share your 24-word recovery phrase with anyone
- Be cautious of phishing attempts or unofficial support contacts
Following these practices ensures that your assets remain secure at all times.
Why Use Ledger Live?
Unlike online wallets or exchange-based solutions, Ledger Live gives you complete control of your assets while combining hardware-level security with software convenience. Supporting more than 5,000 coins and tokens, it is one of the most versatile tools available to crypto investors.
