As the cryptocurrency industry continues to grow, security and simplicity have become essential for digital asset management. Many investors struggle with juggling multiple wallets, exchanges, and platforms — all while worrying about the safety of their coins.
Ledger Live Wallet solves that problem. It’s a single, secure application that lets you buy, sell, send, receive, and stake cryptocurrencies — all while keeping your private keys safe on your Ledger hardware wallet. Developed by Ledger, the global leader in crypto security, Ledger Live offers the perfect balance between usability and protection.
Ledger Live is an official desktop and mobile application developed by Ledger SAS. It serves as the companion app for Ledger’s hardware wallets — the Ledger Nano S Plus and Ledger Nano X.
While your Ledger device stores your private keys offline, Ledger Live provides a secure interface to interact with your crypto assets online. Together, they create one of the most secure and user-friendly solutions in the crypto world.
With Ledger Live, you can:
Manage over 5,000 cryptocurrencies and tokens.
Buy and sell crypto directly through integrated partners.
Send and receive assets securely.
Stake coins like Ethereum, Solana, and Polkadot to earn rewards.
Track your portfolio balance in real time.
Update firmware and apps on your Ledger device.
Everything happens within one clean, intuitive dashboard — no need for multiple third-party wallets or exchanges.
Ledger Live works hand-in-hand with your Ledger hardware wallet. Your private keys never leave the Ledger device. When you initiate a transaction in the app, the request is sent to your Ledger device for physical confirmation. You must press the buttons on your device to approve any transfer — a crucial step that prevents hackers or malware from sending funds without your consent.
This two-step verification process ensures maximum security while keeping the experience simple for everyday users.
Ledger Live displays all your crypto holdings in one place. You can monitor your portfolio value, view transaction history, and manage multiple accounts — all while knowing your private keys are safely offline.
You can purchase cryptocurrencies directly through Ledger Live using integrated partners such as MoonPay, Ramp, and others. You can also sell or swap assets without ever leaving the app. Every transaction is executed securely with your Ledger hardware wallet authorization.
Ledger Live supports staking for several popular cryptocurrencies including Ethereum, Solana, Cosmos, and Tezos. Staking lets you earn rewards while contributing to blockchain network security. You retain full control of your assets during the process — no need to trust third-party staking providers.
Ledger Live also supports NFTs (non-fungible tokens) on the Ethereum and Polygon blockchains. You can view, send, and manage NFTs directly from your Ledger account.
Ledger frequently releases updates for Ledger Live to enhance security and performance. Combined with the hardware wallet’s certified secure element, you get world-class protection against phishing, malware, and physical attacks.
Getting started with Ledger Live is simple:
Visit the official website — Go to Ledger.com/start to download the correct version of Ledger Live for your device (Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, or Android).
Install the app and open it.
Select your Ledger device (Nano S Plus or Nano X) and follow the guided setup steps.
Connect your hardware wallet and unlock it using your PIN code.
Add crypto accounts for Bitcoin, Ethereum, and any other supported assets.
From there, you can install apps for specific blockchains, send and receive crypto, and manage your entire portfolio securely.
Ledger Live combines convenience with top-tier security — something few crypto wallets can match. Here’s why millions of users trust it:
True ownership: You hold your private keys, not an exchange or online wallet.
All-in-one solution: Buy, sell, stake, and track crypto from one place.
Hardware-backed security: Transactions require physical confirmation on your Ledger device.
Continuous updates: Ledger provides frequent app and firmware improvements.

For users who prefer managing crypto on the go, Ledger Live Mobile offers the same functionality as the desktop version. It’s available for iOS and Android, and when paired with the Ledger Nano X’s Bluetooth connectivity, you can manage your crypto securely without needing a cable.
The Ledger Live Wallet is more than just an app — it’s a complete, secure crypto management ecosystem. By combining the convenience of a digital portfolio manager with the proven security of a hardware wallet, Ledger offers peace of mind to anyone serious about protecting their digital assets.
