Welcome to Ledger.com/Start — Your Secure Crypto Setup Guide

Setting up your Ledger device is the first step toward achieving true security and ownership of your cryptocurrency assets. Ledger.com/start is the official onboarding portal designed to walk new users through initializing their hardware wallet, installing Ledger Live, and learning how to safely store digital assets. This guide provides a clean, seamless, and user‑friendly overview that helps beginners and professionals alike get started with confidence.

1. Download and Install Ledger Live

Ledger Live is the all‑in‑one software that lets you manage your hardware wallet, install apps, create accounts, and track your cryptocurrency portfolio. When you visit Ledger.com/start, you will see a direct download link for Windows, macOS, and Linux. Always make sure you download Ledger Live only from the official Ledger website to avoid security risks.

2. Connect and Initialize Your Ledger Device

After installing Ledger Live, plug in your Ledger Nano S Plus or Ledger Nano X using the provided USB cable. The device will prompt you to create a new wallet or restore an existing one. Creating a new wallet will generate a unique 24‑word recovery phrase that must be written down securely. This phrase is the only backup to access your funds if the device is lost or damaged.

3. Verify and Secure Your Recovery Phrase

Security is the foundation of Ledger devices. During setup, you will be asked to confirm each word of your recovery phrase directly on the device. Never store this phrase digitally or share it with anyone. Ledger will never ask you for your recovery phrase online, through email, or anywhere else.

4. Install Crypto Apps and Create Accounts

Once your device is set up, you can use Ledger Live to install apps for Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other supported cryptocurrencies. Each asset needs its own app and account within Ledger Live. This allows you to send, receive, and view your crypto balances securely.

5. Manage and Grow Your Portfolio

Ledger Live includes a built‑in portfolio tracker, staking options, market insights, and secure transaction features. Whether you're storing assets long‑term or managing active Ethereum or Bitcoin wallets, Ledger ensures everything is handled with industry‑leading security.
