What is Ledger Live®?
Ledger Live® is an all-in-one crypto management application developed by Ledger. It enables users to manage their digital assets securely using the Ledger Nano X or Nano S Plus hardware wallets. With Ledger Live, you can buy, sell, exchange, and stake popular cryptocurrencies while maintaining complete self-custody of your funds.
How Ledger Live® Works
The app acts as a control center that interfaces with your hardware wallet. Every transaction must be physically verified on your Ledger device — preventing malicious or accidental transfers. This ensures your private keys never leave the secure hardware environment.
Key Features
- Multi-Asset Management: Manage over 5,000 coins and tokens across multiple blockchains.
- Buy & Sell Crypto: Purchase assets via integrated partners like MoonPay and Ramp.
- Staking & Earn: Stake coins like Ethereum, Solana, and Polkadot to earn passive income.
- Portfolio Overview: Track your balance, growth, and transaction history in real time.
- Secure Authentication: Combine biometric login (mobile) with hardware-level approval.
Why Choose Ledger Live®?
Ledger Live stands apart by combining intuitive UX with institutional-grade security. Unlike web wallets or exchanges that control private keys, Ledger Live ensures your crypto remains entirely yours. Even in the event of device loss, your recovery phrase restores access without third-party intervention.
Supported Platforms
Ledger Live® runs on Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, and iOS. Whether you prefer desktop or mobile, the interface remains synchronized and privacy-respecting. All data is encrypted locally, and no personal information leaves your device.
Recent Updates
Recent versions of Ledger Live introduced enhanced staking dashboards, NFT portfolio tracking, and DeFi integration through WalletConnect. The app’s continuous updates reflect Ledger’s long-term mission — to make Web3 participation safe and user-friendly.
