- Plug in your Ledger Nano device (or connect via Bluetooth for Nano X)
- Download and install the Ledger Live app for desktop or mobile
- Choose to create a new wallet or restore an existing one
- Back up your 24-word recovery phrase
- Set your PIN code to secure access
Every step comes with clear instructions and helpful prompts to guide you safely through the process.
Ledger Live – Your secure crypto control center
After setup, Ledger Live becomes your main tool for managing your portfolio. It allows you to:
- View account balances and transaction history
- Install apps for Bitcoin, Ethereum, and thousands of other coins
- Buy, sell, or stake crypto within the app
- Track performance and connect with DeFi platforms
Ledger Live supports more than 5,000 assets, making it one of the most versatile wallet platforms available.
Your recovery phrase is your lifeline
During setup, you’ll receive a 24-word recovery seed. This phrase is critical—it’s your only way to recover your wallet if your device is lost, damaged, or stolen. Ledger.com/start will teach you how to store it properly: offline, handwritten, and never shared digitally.
Stay updated and secured
You’ll be prompted to install the latest firmware updates during setup to keep your device protected. Combined with your custom PIN code, this ensures maximum wallet security.
