Bank-Grade Protection
Ledger has secured over $300 billion in crypto assets. Our hardware wallets combine multiple layers of protection to keep your investments safe.
Industry-leading secure chip (CC EAL5+) protects your private keys from physical and digital attacks. The same technology used in passports and credit cards.
Your private keys never leave the device and never connect to the internet, protecting you from hackers, malware, and online threats.
Your recovery phrase is your master key. Write it down, keep it safe, and you'll always have access to your crypto—even if you lose your device.
Customize a 4-8 digit PIN code. After three incorrect attempts, your device automatically resets, protecting your assets from unauthorized access.
Every transaction must be physically verified and approved on your device screen. What you see is what you sign—preventing phishing attacks.
Our security model is fully transparent and regularly audited by independent security researchers. Trust through verification, not blind faith.
Everything you need to know about getting started with Ledger
A hardware wallet is a physical device that stores your cryptocurrency private keys offline. Unlike software wallets or exchanges, your keys never touch the internet, making them immune to online hacks. Ledger devices use a certified secure chip to protect your assets even if your computer is compromised.
Setting up your Ledger takes less than 10 minutes. You'll unbox the device, install Ledger Live, create a PIN code, and write down your 24-word recovery phrase. Once complete, you can immediately start managing your crypto securely.
Your crypto is safe! Your 24-word recovery phrase is the backup of your entire wallet. If you lose your device, simply purchase a new Ledger, enter your recovery phrase during setup, and you'll regain full access to all your assets. This is why it's critical to keep your recovery phrase secure and private.
Yes! Ledger supports 5,500+ cryptocurrencies and tokens. You can easily transfer crypto from exchanges or other wallets to your Ledger. Simply install the relevant apps through Ledger Live, generate a receiving address, and send your assets to that address.
Absolutely. All Ledger devices support NFT storage across multiple blockchains including Ethereum, Polygon, and more. You can view, send, and receive NFTs directly through Ledger Live or connect your Ledger to compatible NFT platforms like OpenSea.
No. Your crypto is stored on the blockchain, not in Ledger Live. The app is just an interface to manage your accounts. You can close the app, uninstall it, or switch devices anytime. Your assets remain safe as long as you have your recovery phrase.
When you keep crypto on an exchange, they control your private keys—meaning they control your assets. With Ledger, you have full custody of your keys and crypto. Your private keys never leave the secure chip, making it impossible for hackers to steal your funds remotely. Not your keys, not your crypto.
Yes! Ledger Live supports staking for multiple cryptocurrencies including Ethereum, Solana, Cardano, Polkadot, Tezos, and more. You can earn staking rewards while maintaining full control and security of your assets through your Ledger device.
