Get started securely with your Ledger hardware wallet
Ledger.com/start is the official setup page designed to help users safely initialize their Ledger hardware wallet. Whether you are using a Ledger Nano S Plus or Ledger Nano X, starting from the official Ledger.com/start page ensures that your device is genuine, secure, and configured correctly from the beginning.
Ledger hardware wallets are trusted worldwide for their ability to keep private keys offline, protecting cryptocurrency assets from online threats such as hacking, phishing, and malware attacks.
The official Ledger.com/start page provides verified software, step-by-step guidance, and essential security checks. Using unofficial sources can expose users to counterfeit software and scams that may result in the loss of funds.
Setting up your Ledger wallet through Ledger.com/start is simple and beginner-friendly. The guided process ensures your wallet is ready to use in just a few steps.
Connect your Ledger hardware wallet to your computer or mobile device using the supplied USB cable. Ensure the device is new or has been reset before starting the setup process.
Ledger.com/start will guide you to download Ledger Live, the official application used to manage your crypto assets. Ledger Live is available for Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, and iOS.
During setup, you will create a PIN code directly on your Ledger device. This PIN protects your wallet if the device is lost or stolen and is required every time you access your wallet.
Your Ledger device will generate a 24-word recovery phrase. This phrase is the only backup of your wallet and must be written down and stored offline in a secure location.
Never share your recovery phrase with anyone and never store it digitally. Ledger will never ask for your recovery phrase online or through email.
Ledger Live is the official software interface that allows users to manage cryptocurrencies securely. Once your wallet is set up via Ledger.com/start, Ledger Live becomes your main dashboard for interacting with blockchain networks.
Ledger hardware wallets support thousands of cryptocurrencies and tokens. Popular supported assets include Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Litecoin (LTC), XRP, Cardano (ADA), Solana (SOL), and many ERC-20 tokens.
Unlike exchange wallets, Ledger hardware wallets give you full control of your private keys. Exchanges store keys on centralized servers, making them targets for hackers. With Ledger, your private keys remain offline and under your control.
To keep your assets safe after setup, always follow these best practices:
Ledger wallets are suitable for beginners, long-term investors, active traders, and anyone who values security. If you want to take full control of your digital assets, Ledger offers a trusted and proven solution.
