Testimonials
“Ledger = peace of mind. I'm sure some of us know that unsettling feeling when
you know you need a Ledger but haven't quite organized yourself to get it
sorted. If I did it all again, I'd start with having a Ledger.”

"I got hacked in January and lost 1000s worth of NFTs. I felt disgusted, lost,
and willing to quit. Until my friend told me he's ordering a Ledger. So, we
bought the duo deal. Since then, I've been sleeping."

“I use multiple Ledgers. Different colours = different uses.Public Wallet. Never
touch long term storage. Day to day fund holdings. A back up just in case.”

"My Ledger is already called "Stew". As it is the steward who looks after my
crypto & NFTs, so I can sleep at night."

"Ledger makes cold storage downright easy. My NFTs land infinitely safer and I
don’t have to feel as paranoid about connecting to new smart contracts."

FAQ
Find answers to some of the most common
questions.
Thinking about buying crypto or NFTs? You’ll need a crypto
wallet.
When you create a wallet, two keys are generated: a private one and a
public one. The wallet stores your keys and enables you to sign
transactions, generate new addresses, initiate transfers, track
portfolio balances, manage your crypto, and interact with dApps.
Crypto wallets come in many forms, from hardware wallets, like
Ledger’s, to mobile apps that you can download on your phone or
tablet.
The public key can be compared to a bank account number that you can
share with third parties to receive crypto without worrying that
your assets will be compromised.
The private key signs transactions and allows you to send and receive
crypto. It’s crucial to keep your private keys secure and secret. If
anyone has access to them, they will also have access to any crypto
assets associated with those keys.
A crypto wallet stores your private keys and gives you access to your
assets.
There are different types of crypto wallets, each with its own
benefits and drawbacks. Hot
wallets are connected to the internet and usually convenient
to use, however, they are also vulnerable to online attacks.
Examples include web-based, mobile, and desktop wallets. Cold
wallets keep your private keys offline and out of reach of
online threats. Examples include paper and hardware wallets.
Wallets can also be categorized as custodial or non-custodial,
depending on who holds the private keys. Storing your crypto in a
custodial wallet means that a third party controls your private keys
and, therefore, your assets. In contrast, non-custodial wallets,
like Ledger’s, enable you to fully own and control your crypto.
Hot wallets store private keys on systems connected to the internet,
which makes them susceptible to online attacks. Keeping your crypto
on an exchange also means you have no true ownership or control over
it. If the exchange files for bankruptcy or pauses withdrawals, you
lose access to your funds.
Hardware wallets store your private keys offline, giving you full
control and enhanced security. Even if you misplace or lose your
hardware wallet, you can get a new one and use your Secret Recovery
Phrase to access your assets.
Ready to get started? Here are the steps for getting your crypto
wallet:
Get a Ledger hardware
