🚀 Welcome to Ledger Live – Your Journey Starts at Ledger.com/Start
You've made the smart move of securing your crypto assets with a Ledger® hardware wallet 🔐. Whether you’ve got the Ledger Nano S Plus or the advanced Nano X, your first step is to set it up properly through the official onboarding path: Ledger.com/Start. 💻✨
📦 Step 1: Unbox Your Ledger Device
Inside your Ledger box, you’ll find the hardware wallet, a USB-C cable, recovery sheets, and a quick start guide. Make sure the tamper-proof seal is intact. Security starts from the packaging! 🕵️♂️📦
🌐 Step 2: Head to Ledger.com/Start
Open your browser and go directly to Ledger.com/Start. Avoid third-party links or Google searches — phishing websites are everywhere! 🛑 This page gives you step-by-step instructions based on your device model.
💾 Step 3: Download Ledger Live App
Ledger Live is the official companion app for managing your crypto and connecting your hardware device to the blockchain. Available for Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android — download and install the version that suits you 📲💻.
🔧 Step 4: Plug In and Initialize
Connect your Ledger device via USB or Bluetooth (Nano X only). Choose the option to “Set up as new device.” You’ll now create a secure PIN and generate your 24-word recovery phrase — this is your master key. 🗝️⚙️
🧠 Step 5: Secure Your Recovery Phrase
Your Ledger will display a 24-word recovery phrase. This phrase is everything — anyone with it can access your funds. Write it down on the provided recovery sheets, in order, and store them offline in a safe place. Never take screenshots or store it digitally. 🔏📃
🔑 Step 6: Confirm and Verify
Ledger will ask you to re-enter a few words from your recovery phrase to verify you've saved it correctly. This step ensures you're ready in case you ever need to recover your wallet. 🧩✅
📲 Step 7: Add Accounts in Ledger Live
With your device initialized, it’s time to start managing crypto. Open Ledger Live and select “Add account.” Choose from over 5,000+ supported coins and tokens like Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, and more! 💰🌍
