Ledger.com/Start – Your Gateway to Secure Crypto Management
Welcome to Ledger.com/Start — your official and trusted gateway to setting up and securing your Ledger hardware wallet. Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned crypto user, this step-by-step guide ensures a smooth start to managing your digital assets with confidence. Ledger is the global leader in hardware wallets, trusted by millions for keeping crypto assets safe from online threats.
What is Ledger.com/Start?
Ledger.com/Start is the official onboarding page for all Ledger hardware wallets, including the Ledger Nano S Plus and Ledger Nano X. This dedicated setup portal walks you through everything from unboxing your device to securing your recovery phrase, installing Ledger Live, and managing your cryptocurrencies.
When you visit Ledger.com/Start, you’re not just setting up a device—you’re building a secure foundation for your crypto journey.
Why Use a Hardware Wallet?
Security is paramount in the world of digital currencies. Unlike software wallets that are exposed to online vulnerabilities, Ledger hardware wallets store your private keys offline—keeping them safe from hackers, malware, and phishing attacks.
With Ledger, your crypto stays secure in your hands. The Ledger Nano devices are equipped with industry-leading security features, including a certified secure element (CC EAL5+) and Ledger’s custom OS, BOLOS, to isolate apps and prevent attacks.
