Ledger Live — Secure Crypto Wallet Management for the next era

Step into a future where owning crypto and NFTs feels confident and cinematic. Ledger Live pairs a holographic-inspired interface with bank-grade hardware security. Manage portfolios, sign transactions, explore dynamic NFT galleries and stake across chains — all while your private keys remain locked inside your Ledger device.

Private-key custody
Keys are generated and stored in a Secure Element inside the Ledger device. Ledger Live never transmits private keys — it only requests signatures.
Cross-chain portfolio
Track assets, historic performance and allocations across BTC, ETH, Solana and dozens more, with realtime market data and P&L visualizations.
NFT gallery & provenance
View, organize and verify NFTs with contract metadata and provenance. Securely transfer items with device-signed approvals.
Ready for secure ownership—without compromise
Ledger Live's futuristic UI surfaces critical details and hides complexity until you need it.

Why choose Ledger Live?

Ledger Live is built on an uncompromising assumption: security must be visible and usable. The app translates complex cryptography into simple decisions. When you sign, the device presents exactly what you're approving — amounts, fees, destination addresses and contract data. The app augments that with contextual metadata like token info, contract source and NFT provenance so you can verify authenticity before you finalize any action.

Engineered for real ownership

From one-click staking to advanced transaction builders, Ledger Live scales with your needs. Novices will appreciate guided flows and clear labels; power users can access detailed transaction breakdowns and export transaction histories for accounting.

Security: layered & auditable

At the heart of Ledger Live is the Secure Element — a certified chip that isolates private keys and executes cryptographic signing offline. Combine that with a user-chosen PIN and optional passphrase to create hidden wallets. Firmware updates and app releases follow transparent procedures and are regularly audited by the security community.

Key protections
  • Secure Element (hardware) for key isolation
  • Offline signing: the app never has direct access to private keys
  • PIN anti-brute force & seed recovery process
  • Open, auditable firmware policy

Features that accelerate ownership

One-click staking
Stake supported assets directly and track rewards in the app.

Getting started — secure in minutes

  1. Download Ledger Live from the official website or your platform app store.
  2. Follow the guided setup to initialize a new Ledger device or restore an existing seed.
  3. Create a PIN and write down your 24-word recovery phrase on the provided card — store it offline and secure.
  4. Install the apps for the chains you need, add accounts, and begin receiving assets.
  5. Explore staking, swaps and the NFT gallery — always verify transaction data on your device before approving.

Practical safety checklist

  • Buy hardware devices only from official Ledger channels to avoid tampering risks.
  • Never enter your recovery phrase on a computer or online — keep it physically secure.
  • Keep the app and device firmware updated; follow official release notes for guidance.
  • Use a passphrase for added privacy if you require hidden wallets.
