Why Ledger Hardware Wallets Are Trusted

Ledger wallets are globally recognized for combining enterprise-level security with user-friendly design. Unlike online wallets or exchange accounts, Ledger keeps your private keys offline, safeguarding your crypto from hackers, malware, and phishing attacks.

Millions of crypto users rely on Ledger to store Bitcoin, Ethereum, and thousands of other cryptocurrencies while maintaining full control of their funds.

Offline Security

Ledger devices feature a Secure Element chip, the same technology used in passports and banking cards. This ensures your private keys never leave the device, providing protection against unauthorized access and physical tampering.

Multi-Currency Support

Ledger wallets support over 5,500 cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), Dogecoin (DOGE), and more. Using Ledger Live, you can manage multiple accounts from one interface, send and receive crypto, and stake supported assets without ever exposing your private keys online.

Continuous Security Updates

Ledger regularly updates device firmware and Ledger Live to protect against new threats. Each update enhances security, ensures compatibility with new cryptocurrencies, and keeps your wallet performing optimally.
