Official Site® | Ledger.com/Start® | Getting started

Ledger.com/Start is the official setup portal for Ledger hardware wallets. It provides step-by-step instructions for installing the Ledger Live application, initializing your Ledger device, and securing your recovery phrase.

This page ensures you download only genuine software and avoid phishing or fake Ledger apps. Using the official Ledger.com/Start® website guarantees your wallet setup remains safe and verified.

Why Choose a Ledger Hardware Wallet?

Unlike software wallets or exchanges, Ledger hardware wallets store your private keys offline. This means hackers, malware, and online threats cannot access your crypto. Your keys never leave the device, making Ledger one of the safest ways to store digital assets.

Ledger devices support:

• Bitcoin (BTC)

• Ethereum (ETH)

• XRP, Litecoin, Solana, Polygon

• NFTs and thousands of other tokens

With Ledger, you stay in complete control of your assets at all times.

Step 4: Create a New Wallet

Each app allows you to send, receive, and manage that specific cryptocurrency safely.
