Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Ledger hardware wallets and crypto security.

What is a Ledger hardware wallet and how does it work?+
A Ledger hardware wallet is a physical device that securely stores your cryptocurrency private keys offline. It uses a Secure Element chip to protect your keys from online threats, malware, and physical tampering. When you want to make a transaction, you connect the device to your computer or phone, verify the transaction details on the device's screen, and physically confirm it by pressing buttons on the device.
How do I set up my Ledger device for the first time?+
Setting up your Ledger device involves: 1) Unboxing and connecting it to your computer, 2) Installing the Ledger Live software, 3) Choosing to set up as a new device, 4) Creating a PIN code, 5) Writing down your 24-word recovery phrase and storing it safely, 6) Installing cryptocurrency apps, and 7) Adding your crypto accounts to Ledger Live. The entire process takes about 15-30 minutes.
What cryptocurrencies are supported by Ledger wallets?+
Ledger hardware wallets support over 5,500 cryptocurrencies including Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Litecoin (LTC), Ripple (XRP), Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Cardano (ADA), Polkadot (DOT), Chainlink (LINK), and many more. Support includes major DeFi tokens, NFTs, and emerging cryptocurrencies through dedicated apps that you can install on your device.
What happens if I lose my Ledger device or it gets damaged?+
If your Ledger device is lost, stolen, or damaged, your cryptocurrency is still safe. You can recover your entire wallet using your 24-word recovery phrase with any compatible wallet software or a new Ledger device. This is why it's crucial to write down and safely store your recovery phrase during initial setup. Your recovery phrase is the master key to all your cryptocurrency accounts.
Is it safe to buy a Ledger device from third-party sellers?+
For maximum security, always purchase Ledger devices directly from the official Ledger website or authorized retailers. Devices from unofficial sources may be tampered with or counterfeit. Legitimate Ledger devices come with authenticity verification, unopened packaging, and include a recovery sheet for your 24-word phrase. Never use a device that comes with a pre-written recovery phrase.
Can I use Ledger with DeFi applications and NFT marketplaces?+
Yes, Ledger hardware wallets are compatible with most DeFi protocols and NFT marketplaces. You can connect your Ledger to applications like Uniswap, Compound, Aave, OpenSea, and others using browser extensions or mobile apps. Your private keys remain secure on the hardware device while interacting with smart contracts, providing maximum security for DeFi activities and NFT trading.
