Ledger Desktop is the official platform that allows users to manage their cryptocurrencies securely from their computer. Integrated with Ledger Live, it provides a unified experience where investors can send, receive, and monitor digital assets while maintaining complete control of their private keys.
Unlike browser-based wallets, Ledger Desktop ensures transactions are signed securely within your Ledger hardware wallet. This reduces the risk of phishing or unauthorized access, offering a bank-grade level of protection.
To use Ledger Desktop, download Ledger Live for your operating system (Windows, macOS, or Linux). After installation, connect your Ledger device, follow the setup instructions, and authenticate with your PIN to start managing your crypto safely.
Ledger Desktop supports over 5,000 cryptocurrencies and tokens, giving users access to decentralized finance (DeFi) apps, NFTs, and staking rewards directly through a secure interface.
