🔐 Step 1: Download & Install Ledger Live

Get the Official Ledger Live App

To begin, you’ll need to download Ledger Live. Always ensure you’re getting the app from the official Ledger website to avoid phishing attempts and malware. Visit the following links for your platform:

Important: Always check for the secure HTTPS connection and the padlock icon in your browser to confirm you're on the official site.

📲 Step 2: Open Ledger Live & Sign In

Sign In to Your Ledger Live Account

After installing the Ledger Live app, open it. You will be prompted to sign in. There are a couple of options for signing in:

Sign in with Ledger Account: If you’ve created a Ledger account, use your credentials to log in.
Sign in with a Ledger Hardware Device: If you’ve already set up your Ledger device, you can sign in by connecting the device via USB or Bluetooth. Make sure your Ledger device is unlocked and the PIN is entered.

Note: If you’re new to Ledger Live, you’ll need to create a Ledger account. This is where your Ledger Live settings, preferences, and transaction history will be saved. 🖥️

Tip: Keep your Ledger account credentials safe! If you forget your password, there’s no way to recover it. You may need to reset your Ledger account if that happens.

🔗 Step 3: Connect Your Ledger Device

Connecting Your Device

Next, connect your Ledger hardware wallet to Ledger Live. You can do this using:

USB Cable: Connect your Ledger device to your computer using the supplied USB cable.
Bluetooth: If you’re using a Ledger Nano X, you can also connect your device via Bluetooth for a wireless experience on mobile.

Once your device is connected, Ledger Live will detect it and guide you through the next steps to set it up. If you’re connecting for the first time, the app will ask you to confirm some settings on the device itself. ✔️

💼 Step 4: Managing Your Crypto Portfolio

View Your Balances & Track Portfolio

Ledger Live lets you view your crypto portfolio, with detailed breakdowns of your holdings. You can track the balance of each coin, monitor its performance, and review transaction history. 📉📈

Receiving Crypto: Choose the crypto you want to receive, copy your receiving address, and share it with the sender.
