Ledger Live

Ledger Live is the official companion application for Ledger hardware wallets, designed to help users manage crypto assets securely and efficiently.

What Is Ledger Live?

Ledger Live is a secure desktop and mobile application developed by Ledger to manage hardware wallets such as Ledger Nano S Plus and Ledger Nano X. It acts as a bridge between your Ledger device and the blockchain, allowing you to view balances, send and receive crypto, and manage wallet apps without exposing private keys.

Unlike traditional software wallets, Ledger Live requires physical confirmation on the hardware device for every transaction, ensuring an additional layer of security.
