Introduction to Ledgér Wallet
The Ledgér Wallet is a hardware‑based security device designed to protect your private keys offline. Unlike software wallets, it keeps your sensitive data isolated from internet‑connected devices, dramatically reducing the risk of hacks, malware, and phishing attacks.
This page presents a comprehensive, easy‑to‑read, long‑content layout so you can understand every step before taking action.
Step 1: Unboxing & Device Check
When you receive your Ledgér device, carefully inspect the packaging. A genuine Ledgér device arrives sealed and untampered. Never use a device that comes pre‑configured with a recovery phrase.
- Ensure the box is sealed and intact
- Confirm no recovery phrase is pre‑written
- Only follow instructions shown on the device screen
Step 2: Installing Ledgér Live
Ledgér Live is the official application used to manage your wallet, install apps, and monitor balances. Always download it directly from the official Ledgér website.
After installation, connect your Ledgér device and follow the on‑screen instructions to initialize it as a new wallet.
Step 3: Recovery Phrase & Security
During setup, your device will generate a 24‑word recovery phrase. This phrase is the master key to your assets and must be stored offline in a secure location.
Never take photos, store it digitally, or share it with anyone. Ledgér will never ask for your recovery phrase.
Managing Assets & Long‑Term Use
Once configured, you can install supported blockchain apps, send and receive assets, and verify transactions directly on the device screen. This physical confirmation ensures maximum security.
Over time, keep your device firmware updated and stay informed about common security practices to maintain full control over your assets.
