Getting Started with Ledger

Welcome to Ledger.com/Start, your comprehensive guide to setting up and using the world's most secure hardware wallet for cryptocurrency. Whether you're new to crypto or a seasoned investor, Ledger provides the ultimate protection for your digital assets.

Your journey to secure crypto management begins here. Our hardware wallets combine a secure element with a proprietary operating system designed specifically to protect your assets. Ledger devices store private keys in a certified secure chip, ensuring your cryptocurrencies are safe from online threats.

To get started, first unbox your Ledger device and connect it to your computer using the provided USB cable. Download Ledger Live, our companion application that allows you to manage your crypto portfolio, check balances, and make transactions securely.

During the initial setup, you'll create a PIN code to protect access to your device. This PIN is your first line of defense, so choose something memorable but not easily guessable. Next, you'll generate your 24-word recovery phrase - the most critical security element of your wallet.

Write down your recovery phrase on the provided backup sheet and store it in a secure location. Never share this phrase with anyone, and never store it digitally. This phrase is the key to restoring your wallet if your device is lost, stolen, or damaged.

Once your device is set up, you can install apps for different cryptocurrencies through Ledger Live. Each crypto asset requires its own app, which doesn't take up significant space on your device. You can install and uninstall apps as needed without affecting your balances.

With your Ledger device properly configured, you're ready to receive and send cryptocurrencies. Your Ledger generates unique addresses for each transaction, enhancing your privacy and security. All transactions must be physically confirmed on your device, providing protection against malware and hackers.

Ledger.com/Start is more than just a setup guide - it's your ongoing resource for crypto security best practices, advanced features, and troubleshooting. Bookmark this page and check back regularly for updates, security tips, and new feature announcements.

Why Choose Ledger Hardware Wallets?

When it comes to cryptocurrency protection, Ledger wallets stand at the top. They’re trusted by millions worldwide for offering bank-grade security combined with a simple, beginner-friendly experience.

Unlike online or exchange-based wallets, Ledger devices keep your private keys stored offline, away from hackers and malicious software. This ensures your crypto remains safe — no matter what happens online.

Unmatched Offline Protection

Your private keys never touch the internet. Every Ledger device contains a Secure Element chip — the same kind used in passports and banking cards — providing strong defense against physical tampering and unauthorized access.

Supports Thousands of Cryptocurrencies

Ledger wallets can safely store and manage over 5,500 crypto assets, including Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), Dogecoin (DOGE), and many others. Through the Ledger Live app, you can track, buy, sell, and stake multiple coins from one simple dashboard — no need to switch between different wallets or apps.

Continuous Innovation and Security Updates

Ledger’s development team continuously improves firmware and the Ledger Live software to stay ahead of evolving threats. With every update, your wallet gains stronger protection and better functionality.
