Lèdger Live is the control center for your digital assets. Whether you’re using Nano X, Nano S Plus, or the latest Ledger wallet, Ledger Live ensures that your transactions remain secure through offline private key protection. This setup process guides you to initialize your wallet, verify genuine device authenticity, create recovery phrases, and synchronize portfolio data safely — all while keeping your coins offline and fully under your control.
Ledger Live is a secure application that acts as the command dashboard for your crypto hardware wallet. Unlike online exchanges, Ledger Live ensures that private keys always stay inside your Ledger device — never on the internet. This means your funds are protected from malicious servers, SIM swaps, data breaches, phishing, and server outages. Ledger Live integrates buying, swapping, receiving, staking, NFT viewing, and portfolio tracking all in one unified interface. The software includes anti-tamper verification and cryptographic authentication to ensure your device is genuine.
