A concise, shareable presentation and guide to Ledger Live — features, security notes, supported assets, and official resources.
What is Ledger Live? (H2)
Ledger Live is the official desktop and mobile companion app for Ledger hardware wallets. It provides a secure interface to manage, send, receive, buy, swap, and stake cryptocurrencies while keeping private keys on your Ledger device.

Key Features (H3)
- Asset management: Consolidate balances and multiple accounts in one portfolio.
- Buy & Swap: Integrated on-ramps and swap providers inside the app.
- Stake & Earn: Native staking for supported chains to earn rewards.
- Third-party integrations: Connect to MetaMask, Phantom, and other wallets for DeFi and NFTs.
- Ledger Sync: Optionally sync accounts across devices with privacy-first design.
The app acts as a secure UI layer while private keys remain inside the hardware device.
Security & Best Practices (H3)
What Ledger protects (H4)
Ledger devices use a secure element chip and a proprietary OS to isolate private keys from networked environments. Ledger Live communicates with the device but never exposes private keys. Always verify transaction details on your physical device screen.
What users must never do (H4)
- Never type or share your recovery (seed) phrase with anyone or into any app or website.
- Only download Ledger Live from the official Ledger site or official app stores to avoid fake apps or malware.
- Keep device firmware and Ledger Live updated; enable OS-level protections on your computer and phone.
Security alert: attackers distribute counterfeit Ledger Live installers—always verify sources and checksums before installing.
Supported Coins & Compatibility (H3)
Ledger Live supports thousands of assets (including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Cardano, and many ERC-20 tokens). Exact asset availability depends on the device model and Ledger Live version; check the official supported-assets page for the most current list.
