Frequently Asked Questions

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

A Ledger hardware wallet is a physical device that stores your cryptocurrency private keys offline, providing the highest level of security. Unlike software wallets, your private keys never touch the internet, making them immune to online hacks and malware attacks.

Setting up your Ledger is simple: 1) Download Ledger Live app, 2) Connect your device via USB, 3) Follow the on-screen setup wizard, 4) Create a PIN and backup your 24-word recovery phrase, 5) Install cryptocurrency apps. The entire process takes less than 10 minutes.

Ledger supports over 5,500 cryptocurrencies including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Ripple, Cardano, Solana, and thousands of ERC-20 tokens. You can manage multiple cryptocurrencies on a single device by installing the relevant apps through Ledger Live.

Your 24-word recovery phrase is generated offline on your device and never leaves it. You must write it down on the provided recovery sheet and store it in a secure location. This phrase is the only way to recover your funds if your device is lost or damaged.

Yes! Ledger Live is available for iOS and Android. The Ledger Nano X supports Bluetooth connectivity for wireless mobile use, while the Nano S Plus requires an OTG cable for mobile connection. You can manage your portfolio, send, and receive crypto on the go.

If you lose your device but have your 24-word recovery phrase, your funds are safe. You can restore your accounts on a new Ledger device or compatible wallet using your recovery phrase. This is why it's crucial to store your recovery phrase securely.

Ledger devices use a Secure Element chip (CC EAL5+ certified), the same technology used in passports and credit cards. Your private keys are stored in this tamper-resistant chip and never leave the device. To date, no Ledger hardware wallet has ever been hacked.

No, your device only needs to be connected when you want to send cryptocurrency or access certain apps. Your crypto is stored on the blockchain, not on the device itself. The device is only needed to authorize transactions with your private keys.
