This guide explains how to use Ledger.com/Start® to set up your device safely, protect your assets, and confidently navigate the crypto world.

Why Use Ledger?

Ledger’s hardware wallets are trusted by millions of users worldwide because they offer:

  • Offline storage (cold wallet security)
  • Private key control by the user
  • Compatibility with hundreds of cryptocurrencies
  • Integration with popular apps like MetaMask and exchanges

By using Ledger, you take full control of your crypto—not a third party.

Step-by-Step: Getting Started with Ledger

To begin using your Ledger device securely, follow these steps through the official setup site: www.ledger.com/start. Always make sure you're on the correct domain to avoid phishing attempts.

  • Follow on-screen instructions to:
  • Choose a PIN code
  • Write down your 24-word recovery phrase
  • Confirm the phrase (this is your backup—never share it with anyone or store it digitally)

Step 4: Install Crypto Apps

To manage specific cryptocurrencies, you’ll need to install apps (e.g., Bitcoin, Ethereum) on your device via Ledger Live. You can then:

  • Create or import wallets
  • View balances
  • Send/receive transactions
