Your Secure and Complete Desktop Cryptocurrency Management Platform
Ledger Live Desktop is the official application designed to integrate with Ledger hardware wallets, providing users with a comprehensive and secure environment to manage cryptocurrencies. Unlike web-based wallets or exchange accounts, Ledger Live Desktop keeps your private keys offline, ensuring maximum protection against cyber threats while offering an intuitive interface for all your crypto needs.
With Ledger Live Desktop, users can buy, sell, exchange, stake, and monitor their digital assets from a single application while maintaining full control of their private keys.
Ledger Live Desktop provides a clear, real-time dashboard to monitor balances, track asset performance, and review transaction history across multiple cryptocurrencies.
All transactions are confirmed physically on your Ledger device. Even if your computer is compromised, malicious software cannot execute unauthorized transfers.
Integrated partners allow you to purchase cryptocurrencies with fiat, sell digital assets, or swap coins directly from the desktop application, all while maintaining Ledger’s hardware-level security.
Earn rewards by staking supported cryptocurrencies securely through Ledger Live Desktop. The platform guides users through the staking process step by step.
Ledger Live Desktop allows multiple accounts for the same asset, enabling easy organization and management of trading, savings, or business wallets.
Ledger Live Desktop connects your computer to Ledger hardware wallets. When you initiate a transaction, the details are sent to the device for approval. Only after physical confirmation on the device is the transaction broadcast to the blockchain. This separation of online interface and offline key storage is the cornerstone of Ledger’s security model.

Use the USB cable to connect your Ledger hardware wallet to your computer and unlock it with your PIN.
Select the supported cryptocurrencies you wish to manage and create accounts for each.
Buy, sell, swap, stake, and track cryptocurrencies securely. Always approve transactions on the device screen.
Ledger Live Desktop does not store private keys or recovery phrases online. Users remain the sole custodians of their assets. Additional privacy features include account separation, passphrase-protected wallets, and transparent transaction tracking without revealing sensitive information.
Ledger Live Desktop combines advanced security with a user-friendly interface. It caters to beginners who need guidance and experienced users seeking full control over complex operations. By keeping sensitive keys offline and providing a trusted interface for crypto management, Ledger Live Desktop reduces risk while improving convenience.
Ledger Live Desktop is a secure, all-in-one application that integrates seamlessly with Ledger hardware wallets.
