Why Use Ledger Hardware Wallets?

Industry-leading protection

Ledger devices use a Secure Element chip—the same technology used in passports and banking cards—to protect private keys. All sensitive actions must be confirmed physically on the device, making unauthorized access nearly impossible.

Unlike software wallets or exchanges, Ledger gives you true self-custody. You control your keys, your crypto, and your financial freedom.

Security Best Practices

Protect your investment

Always access setup through Ledger.com/start and never share your 24-word recovery phrase. Ledger will never ask for it online. Store your recovery phrase offline in a secure location and keep your Ledger Live app updated.

Ledger.com/start is the foundation of a secure crypto journey. By following the official setup process and using Ledger Live with a Ledger hardware wallet, users gain maximum protection, usability, and control over their digital assets. If security and long-term ownership matter, Ledger is a trusted choice.
