Ledger wallet Setup — Step by step

  1. Go to Ledger.com/start and follow official unboxing and setup instructions.
  2. Create a PIN on your Ledger hardware wallet and write down your recovery phrase — never share it.
  3. Download Ledger® using the Ledger Live App Download section below and install on your computer or mobile device.
  4. Connect your device, open Ledger®, and add accounts for the cryptocurrencies you hold.
  5. For decentralized app interactions in a browser, consider official connectors or the Ledger Wallet Extension—always verify permissions before approving.

Security note: Ledger® never transmits your recovery phrase. Always use official download pages: Ledger.com/ledger-live.
