Ledger Live Desktop is the official Ledger application for securely managing your crypto portfolio through Ledger hardware wallets. This desktop software allows you to track balances, install blockchain apps, stake supported coins, swap assets, and view NFTs—all while keeping your private keys fully offline. Using Ledger Live Desktop guarantees that your crypto remains protected from malware, phishing, and unauthorized access.
Unlike web-based wallets, Ledger Live Desktop communicates securely with your Ledger hardware wallet, which stores your private keys offline in a tamper-resistant secure element chip. Every transaction, including sending or receiving crypto, requires manual confirmation on the device itself. Firmware updates and app installations are fully verified, ensuring that your wallet remains safe from external attacks.
Visit the official Ledger website to download Ledger Live Desktop for your operating system. Connect your Ledger device and choose whether to set up a new wallet or restore from an existing recovery phrase. Ledger Live Desktop will guide you through PIN creation, firmware verification, and account setup, ensuring that all steps are conducted safely and that your keys remain offline.
Ledger Live Desktop ensures maximum security by requiring device confirmation for every transaction. Your private keys never leave the secure element of your Ledger device, and all operations are validated to prevent tampering. Staking, NFT management, and swaps are performed securely without exposing sensitive information.
With Ledger Live Desktop, you have a comprehensive and secure tool to manage all aspects of your crypto portfolio. Track balances, confirm transactions, stake coins, swap assets, and manage NFTs in a trusted environment.
