Step 1: Get Ledger Live
Download Ledger Live directly from Ledger.com/start. Available for Windows, Mac, Linux, iOS, and Android, Ledger Live allows you to track and manage Bitcoin, Ethereum, and hundreds of other coins in one place. Only download from the official link to avoid counterfeit apps.
Step 2: Connect & Initialize
Plug in your Ledger device and open Ledger Live. You can set up a new wallet or restore from an existing 24-word recovery phrase. This process initializes your hardware wallet, creating your secure environment for managing crypto assets offline.
Step 3: Store Your Recovery Phrase
Your recovery phrase is the master key to your wallet. Write it down on the recovery sheet provided with your Ledger device. Never store it digitally or share it with anyone. Keep it safe in multiple offline locations. Losing it means losing access to your assets permanently.
Step 4: Install Crypto Apps
Use Ledger Live to install the apps for cryptocurrencies you want to manage. Each app lets your Ledger device communicate securely with blockchain networks. For example, install the Bitcoin app to send, receive, and store BTC through Ledger Live.
