The official onboarding page for Ledger hardware wallets is Ledger.com/Start®. This guide is designed to help new users safely set up their Ledger device, install Ledger Live, and begin managing digital assets with confidence. Whether you’re new to crypto or upgrading to cold storage, this walkthrough provides a smooth, secure foundation.
Ledger.com/Start® is the official starting point for initializing any Ledger hardware wallet, including Ledger Nano S Plus, Ledger Nano X, and Ledger Stax. It ensures you download the legitimate Ledger Live app, follow verified setup steps, and protect your private keys from phishing risks.
By using the official onboarding portal, you reduce exposure to fake software, malicious browser extensions, and imitation websites. Ledger.com/Start® walks users through genuine installation files, device verification, firmware updates, and recovery phrase creation.
Always begin your journey at Ledger.com/Start® to avoid unnecessary risks.
Before connecting your device, inspect the packaging. Ledger hardware wallets are never shipped preconfigured. If you see a recovery phrase already included, do not use the device. Instead, go directly to Ledger.com/Start® and contact official support.
Ledger Live is the official desktop and mobile application for managing crypto assets. From Ledger.com/Start®, select your operating system (Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, or iOS) and install only from the verified source.
Plug in your Ledger device and choose “Set up as new.” You’ll be guided to create a secure PIN and generate your unique 24-word recovery phrase. This phrase is the master key to your wallet and should never be shared digitally.
Write your recovery phrase on paper and store it offline. Never photograph it, upload it to cloud storage, or type it into websites. Ledger will never ask for it.
The recovery phrase is the core of your crypto ownership. It allows you to restore your wallet on any compatible device. Ledger.com/Start® explains this concept clearly, emphasizing that whoever controls the phrase controls the assets.
If your device is lost or damaged, you can safely recover funds using your phrase through instructions on Ledger.com/Start®.
Ledger Live allows you to install blockchain apps on your device (Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and many more). Once added, you can create accounts, receive funds, and monitor your portfolio in real time.
Each transaction must be physically confirmed on your Ledger device, protecting you even if your computer is compromised. Ledger.com/Start® includes visual tutorials showing how to verify addresses and approve transactions safely.
Always compare the address shown in Ledger Live with the one on your device screen before approving. This ensures no malware has altered the transaction.
Ledger occasionally releases firmware updates that improve performance and security. These updates should only be initiated through Ledger Live, accessed from Ledger.com/Start®.
Scammers often imitate Ledger emails or ads. Official guidance is always available on Ledger.com/Start®. Never trust messages that pressure you to enter your recovery phrase.
