Why Ledger Live?
Ledger Live brings together **security**, **usability**, and **control** so you can take full charge of your digital assets. Whether you want to buy, swap, stake, or track your crypto portfolio, Ledger Live is designed to be your single, secure place to manage everything. With millions of users worldwide and the backing of industry‑leading hardware wallet technology, you get peace of mind without compromising on features.
The app supports thousands of coins and tokens — from Bitcoin and Ethereum to lesser‑known tokens — along with NFT and Web3 integration. Everything is built so your private keys stay offline, under your control, while the app gives you full visibility and actionable insights.
Key Features
- Multi‑Asset Portfolio Tracking: Monitor 5,000+ supported coins & tokens in real‑time. View performance charts, historical data, allocations, and asset distribution.
- Buy, Swap & Sell: Integrated fiat on‑ramps and third‑party partners allow you to buy crypto, sell, or swap between assets securely within Ledger Live.
- Stake & Earn Rewards: Stake your tokens like ETH, SOL, DOT, ADA, and more. Earn rewards while still keeping full control of your hardware wallet. Rewards shown transparently in the app.
- NFT & Web3 Access: View, send, receive, and manage your NFTs. Interact with decentralized apps (dApps) through Ledger Live, safely bridging you into the Web3 world.
- Security You Can Trust: Ledger Live is built to require confirmation on the Ledger hardware device for sensitive actions — your private keys never leave the device. All app communication is encrypted and verified. Also, Ledger devices use a Secure Element (SE) chip with high security certifications. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}

Security & Best Practices
Security is not just a feature — it’s the foundation. Here’s what you should always do:
- Always download the app from the official Ledger website or trusted app stores. Beware of phishing sites or fake apps. :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}

- Keep both your device’s firmware and Ledger Live app updated to the latest versions. Updates often include critical security patches. :contentReference[oaicite:7]{index=7}
- Confirm every transaction on the Ledger hardware wallet’s physical buttons/screen — this ensures you are sending to the correct address and amount.
- Use strong passwords, and enable all additional security layers available (PINs, passphrase, etc.).
