What Is Ledger-Live-®?

Ledger-Live-® is the official wallet management platform developed by Ledger for desktop and mobile devices. It allows users to interact with blockchain networks through a secure interface while ensuring that sensitive cryptographic keys never leave the hardware wallet.

Using ledger-live, users can:

Manage multiple crypto accounts

Send and receive cryptocurrencies

Install and update Ledger device apps

How Ledger-Live-® Works

Ledger-Live-® displays balances, prepares transactions, and connects to blockchain networks, but all cryptographic signing occurs inside the Ledger hardware wallet. This ensures:

Private keys are never exposed online

Malware cannot steal wallet credentials

Transactions require physical confirmation

This secure architecture makes ledger-live suitable for both beginners and advanced crypto users.
