Ledger Live: Securely Manage, Grow, and Use Your Crypto

Ledger Live is the official application designed to help you securely manage your cryptocurrency using a Ledger hardware wallet. Built for safety, simplicity, and full ownership, Ledger Live puts you in control of your digital assets—without relying on centralized platforms or online wallets.

Whether you are new to crypto or an experienced user, Ledger Live provides a powerful, all-in-one solution to buy, store, stake, swap, and interact with crypto securely.

What Is Ledger Live?

Ledger Live is a secure crypto management platform available on desktop and mobile. It works in combination with Ledger hardware wallets to ensure your private keys remain offline and protected at all times.

Unlike exchange wallets or browser-based wallets, Ledger Live does not store your private keys or control your funds. Instead, it serves as a trusted interface that allows you to interact with blockchain networks while requiring physical confirmation on your Ledger device for every sensitive action.

Built on Security and Self-Custody

Security is the foundation of Ledger Live. Your private keys are generated and stored within your Ledger hardware wallet’s Secure Element chip, a tamper-resistant technology used in banking and government systems.

How Ledger Live Keeps You Safe

• Private keys never leave your device
• Transactions must be approved on the device screen
• No centralized account or password-based login
• Protection against malware and phishing attacks

With Ledger Live, only you have access to your crypto—no third party can freeze, move, or control your assets.

One Platform for All Your Crypto

Ledger Live supports hundreds of cryptocurrencies and thousands of tokens, allowing you to manage a diverse portfolio from a single dashboard.

Supported assets include:

• Bitcoin (BTC)
• Ethereum (ETH)
• Solana (SOL)
• Cardano (ADA)
• Polygon (MATIC)
• XRP
• Litecoin (LTC)
• ERC-20 tokens and more

Ledger Live provides real-time balance updates, transaction history, and portfolio performance insights to help you stay informed.

Buy, Sell, and Swap Crypto Securely

Ledger Live integrates trusted third-party services, enabling you to access crypto markets without sacrificing security.

Buy Crypto

Purchase crypto using fiat currencies directly within Ledger Live. Your assets are sent straight to your Ledger-protected wallet rather than being stored on an exchange.

Sell Crypto

Convert crypto into fiat while maintaining custody until the transaction is finalized.

Swap Crypto

Exchange one cryptocurrency for another directly inside Ledger Live, with private keys remaining offline throughout the process.

Earn Rewards with Staking

Ledger Live allows you to stake supported cryptocurrencies and earn rewards while retaining full control of your funds.

Staking with Ledger Live means:

• Non-custodial staking
• Transparent reward tracking
• Direct participation in blockchain networks

You earn rewards without giving up ownership of your crypto.

Explore Web3, DeFi, and NFTs

Ledger Live acts as your secure gateway to Web3 and decentralized applications.

Using Ledger Live, you can:

• Connect to decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms
• Interact with DApps
• Manage and view NFTs
• Approve smart contracts securely

Every Web3 interaction requires physical confirmation on your Ledger device, helping protect you from malicious transactions.
