The Official Desktop Application for Secure Crypto Management
Ledger Live Desktop is the official application designed to work with Ledger hardware wallets, providing a secure and user-friendly interface to manage digital assets. It allows users to buy, sell, send, receive, swap, and stake cryptocurrencies while keeping private keys safely stored offline inside their Ledger device.
Unlike web-based wallets, Ledger Live Desktop ensures that all transactions must be physically confirmed on your hardware wallet. This adds a powerful security layer that protects against hacking attempts, phishing scams, and malware threats.
