Ledger Live Wallet — Your Secure Crypto Control Center
Ledger Live is more than just a crypto wallet. It’s a powerful, secure, and user-friendly app that puts your entire digital asset portfolio in one place — while keeping your private keys protected on your Ledger hardware device.
Whether you’re new to crypto or managing a growing portfolio, Ledger Live is designed to make managing, earning, and securing digital assets simple and safe.
What Is Ledger Live?
Ledger Live is the official desktop and mobile app developed by Ledger, the world’s leading hardware wallet provider. It’s the central hub where you:
- Manage your crypto accounts
- Send and receive funds
- Track your portfolio
- Stake assets and earn rewards
- Swap tokens safely
- Install coin apps on your Ledger device
Ledger Live connects to your Ledger hardware wallet to ensure your private keys never leave the device. This combination of offline key storage and online management gives you the best of both worlds: security and convenience.
Why Ledger Live Is Different
Unlike exchange wallets or online apps, Ledger Live is built with security as the foundation. Here’s what makes it unique:
🔐 Hardware-Backed Security
Your private keys are stored offline on your Ledger device, not on a server or app. This drastically reduces the risk of hacks and theft.
🧾 Secure Transaction Confirmation
Every transaction you send is verified and signed directly on your Ledger device. Even if your computer or phone is compromised, your funds remain protected.
📈 Portfolio Tracking
Ledger Live provides a clear dashboard that shows your total balance, asset performance, and transaction history — all in one place.
🌍 Supports Thousands of Assets
Ledger Live supports 5,500+ coins and tokens across multiple blockchains — including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and many more.
