Ledger.com/Start®| Getting Started — Ledger Support™

With cybercrime and phishing attacks on the rise, setting up a hardware wallet correctly is critical. Ledger has streamlined this process through Ledger.com/start, a dedicated platform designed to help users securely initialize their Ledger wallets from day one.

The Importance of Using Ledger.com/Start

Ledger.com/start ensures that users are guided through the correct setup process using verified software and trusted instructions. Many crypto-related losses occur due to fake apps or incorrect setup steps, and Ledger.com/start exists to prevent these issues.

The page supports multiple Ledger devices and automatically provides instructions based on the model being used.

Understanding Ledger Live’s Role

Ledger Live acts as the main interface for interacting with your Ledger wallet. Through Ledger Live, users can manage multiple cryptocurrencies, track portfolio performance, and perform transactions securely.

All sensitive actions must be confirmed on the physical Ledger device, ensuring that private keys never leave the wallet—even if the computer or phone is compromised.

Creating and Protecting Your Recovery Phrase

During setup, Ledger.com/start guides users through generating a recovery phrase. This phrase represents full ownership of the wallet and its funds. Losing it means losing access permanently, while sharing it exposes assets to theft.

Ledger strongly advises users to keep the recovery phrase offline and stored in a secure location, such as a safe or lockbox.

Avoiding Common Setup Mistakes

Ledger.com/start helps users avoid common errors, such as installing unofficial apps, skipping firmware updates, or rushing through security steps. Clear warnings and reminders are built into the process to reinforce safe habits.

Long-Term Benefits of Proper Setup

A wallet set up correctly through Ledger.com/start offers long-term peace of mind. Users benefit from strong offline security, regular firmware updates, and access to a growing ecosystem of supported cryptocurrencies and services.

Conclusion

Ledger.com/start is the safest and most reliable way to begin using a Ledger hardware wallet. By following the official setup guide and security recommendations, users can confidently manage their cryptocurrency while maintaining full control and protection over their assets.
