Pair Ledger Live with Ledger Hardware Wallet for Ultimate Security

Your Ledger wallet—either the Ledger Nano S Plus or Ledger Nano X—works with Ledger Live to keep your private keys offline and safe from hackers. All transactions initiated on Ledger Live must be confirmed on your hardware device, ensuring nobody can access your funds without physical confirmation.

This hardware-software combo offers the perfect balance between usability and security.

Ledger Staking: Earn Passive Income on Your Crypto

Why let your crypto sit idle when you can earn rewards through Ledger staking? Ledger Live supports easy staking for multiple assets, including:

  • Ethereum (ETH)
  • Tezos (XTZ)
  • Cosmos (ATOM)
  • Polkadot (DOT)
  • Algorand (ALGO)
  • Cardano (ADA)

You retain control over your assets while they work for you, earning staking rewards directly within Ledger Live.

Manage DeFi & NFTs with Ledger Bridge

To interact with Web3 applications, NFTs, and decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms, Ledger Bridge is essential. It securely connects your Ledger wallet to browser-based apps like MetaMask or WalletConnect, ensuring every action still requires approval on your physical device.

This means you can:

  • Trade on DEXs like Uniswap or SushiSwap
  • Mint and manage NFTs
  • Provide liquidity or earn yield in DeFi
  • All while keeping your private keys offline

Ledger Bridge protects you from smart contract exploits and phishing attacks by requiring physical confirmation for every transaction.

Buy, Swap & Grow with Ledger Live

Ledger Live Wallet is integrated with trusted partners to allow users to:

  • Buy crypto with fiat – Credit card or bank transfers supported.
  • Swap tokens instantly – Trade over 100+ cryptocurrencies.
  • Track real-time values – Stay updated with your portfolio 24/7.

Ledger never has access to your funds. All buy and swap functions are non-custodial and private.
