Ledger Live Desktop is more than just a wallet app — it’s a complete crypto management platform built with security and simplicity at its core.
Here’s why it’s trusted by millions of users worldwide:
Your private keys never leave your Ledger device. All transactions must be manually approved on your hardware wallet, protecting you against phishing and malware attacks.
Ledger Live doesn’t store your data or assets. Your funds remain on the blockchain, and only you have the keys to access them. No third-party custodians, no centralized risks.
Unlike browser wallets, Ledger Live Desktop runs locally on your computer — meaning no cloud storage, no browser vulnerabilities, and maximum control over your information.
Ledger Live supports over 5,000 coins and tokens, including:
Bitcoin (BTC)
Ethereum (ETH)
Solana (SOL)
Cardano (ADA)
Binance Coin (BNB)
XRP, Polygon (MATIC), and more.
