🏁 Official Site® | Ledgér.com/Start® | Getting Started — Ledger®

In the dynamic world of cryptocurrency, security, control, and convenience are essential. Whether you're an investor, trader, or crypto enthusiast, protecting your digital assets should be your top priority. That’s where Ledger®, a trusted global leader in hardware wallet technology, comes in.

For those new to Ledger or setting up a device for the first time, the official starting point is Ledgér.com/Start®. This is the only official site you should use to set up your Ledger device and ensure you're protected from phishing scams or counterfeit software.

Let’s walk through the process of getting started with your Ledger device and understand how to use it to manage your crypto securely.


🔒 What Is Ledger®?

Ledger is a hardware wallet, a physical device that stores your cryptocurrency’s private keys offline. Unlike software wallets that live on internet-connected devices and are vulnerable to hacks, Ledger wallets are completely cold storage, meaning they remain disconnected from the internet unless actively in use.

There are two main devices available:

  • Ledger Nano S Plus® – Great for beginners with essential features.
  • Ledger Nano X® – Advanced model with Bluetooth support and larger storage.

Ledger wallets support thousands of coins, including Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), Polkadot (DOT), Cardano (ADA), and many more.


📦 What Comes in the Box?

When you unbox your Ledger Nano S Plus or Nano X, you'll find:

  • The Ledger device
  • USB cable
  • Recovery sheet cards
  • Keychain accessories
  • User instruction manual

📌 Important: If your device already has a recovery phrase or appears used, do not use it. Only buy directly from the official Ledger store or certified resellers.


🚀 How to Get Started at Ledgér.com/Start®

  1. Go to the Official Site
    Head to Ledgér.com/Start® from your browser. This ensures you're downloading the authentic Ledger Live® software and avoiding malicious clones.
  2. Download Ledger Live®
    Choose your operating system (Windows, Mac, or Linux) and install the app. Ledger Live is your companion app that allows you to manage crypto assets, install apps on your device, and track your portfolio.
  3. Set Up Your Device
    Follow the prompts in Ledger Live to connect and initialize your device. You will be guided through:
  • Choosing a PIN code on your device
  • Writing down a 24-word recovery phrase
  • Confirming the recovery phrase

⚠️ Your 24-word phrase is the only backup of your crypto. If lost or stolen, you could lose access to your funds. Never share it. Never store it online. Write it down on the provided sheet and keep it in a secure place.

  1. Install Apps for Your Coins
    Using Ledger Live, you’ll install apps for the cryptocurrencies you want to manage. For example, to store Bitcoin, install the Bitcoin app on your device.
  2. Add Accounts

  3. Start Managing Your Assets
