About Ledger Live Desktop
Ledger Live Desktop is the official Ledger application that lets you control your crypto securely from your computer. Available for Windows, macOS, and Linux, it’s the ultimate hub for managing your digital assets — from Bitcoin and Ethereum to NFTs and staking rewards — all protected by your Ledger Nano X, Nano S Plus, or Nano S hardware wallet.
With Ledger Live, your private keys remain stored safely inside your Ledger device. Every transaction must be verified on the physical wallet, ensuring that hackers or malware cannot access your crypto — even if your computer is compromised.

Why Ledger Live?
Ledger Live provides the perfect balance of usability and security. Unlike browser wallets or exchanges that keep custody of your keys, Ledger’s architecture keeps your assets under your full control. Even if your computer or the Ledger Live app is compromised, your private keys remain untouchable.
Continuous updates bring new tokens, DeFi integrations, and improved features — ensuring that you stay ahead in the rapidly evolving crypto landscape.
