This short guide helps new users log in, set up, and become confident using Ledger® Live. The presentation uses clear headings H1–H5 and bold, full-color visuals styled for modern office slides.
What you will learn: Installing Ledger Live, connecting a Ledger device, secure login options, initial wallet setup, receiving and sending crypto, and best security practices.
Ensure your computer or mobile device meets the minimum requirements. Use the official Ledger® website or app stores. Keep your recovery phrase offline and a secure surface to write it on.
Download Ledger® Live from the official source, verify the checksum if desired, then install. Open the app and choose "Get Started" to begin the guided setup.
Tip: Always verify installation files to avoid tampered packages.
Connect your Ledger device to your computer or phone. Follow on-screen prompts to choose a PIN and store your 24‑word recovery phrase offline. Never share the recovery phrase or enter it on a computer.
Ledger® Live authenticates by requesting approval on the physical device. Login options emphasize device-first security: you must confirm actions on your Ledger. The app itself provides a PIN-locked interface.
For mobile, Ledger Live may use Bluetooth to communicate with devices like the Nano X. Approve pairings only when you expect them.
Within Ledger Live, go to the "Accounts" tab to add a new account. Choose the crypto asset you want to manage, then follow prompts to derive and add account addresses from your device.
Always verify the receiving address on your Ledger device screen before sharing it. Addresses shown in Ledger Live should be cross-checked visually with the device to ensure no man-in-the-middle tampering.
Use QR codes for mobile transfers and confirm the address on the hardware wallet for maximum safety.
Create a transaction in Ledger Live, set fees, and review details on your device. The final approval must be done on the Ledger — this two-step confirmation ensures the app cannot sign transactions without your physical consent.
Protect your recovery phrase, keep firmware updated, and distrust unsolicited messages. Ledger Live offers firmware updates — apply them from the official app only after verifying prompts on the device.
Never: enter your recovery phrase into software, store it digitally, or take photos of it.
You're set to use Ledger® Live: login, add accounts, receive and send crypto safely. Revisit any slide to review steps. Below are official resources and an office-friendly link to open this deck in PowerPoint Online.
