A different kind of ownership 01 / 04
Crypto is yours.
Keep it that way.
When you buy crypto through a platform, it can feel like it is already yours. But if someone else holds the keys, they control access. Self-custody changes that. You hold the private keys that prove ownership, and you decide when and how to use your assets.
Ledger makes self-custody approachable. A Ledger signer keeps your private keys offline, away from the everyday online threats that target connected devices. You review and approve transactions on the device itself, making your security decisions clear and intentional.
It is a simple idea with a meaningful difference: your assets stay yours to manage. You can build at your own pace, explore new possibilities and learn as you go—with tools designed to put you in the driver’s seat.

Stay in control.
You do not need to know everything about crypto before you begin. Start with the essentials, take your time, and build your understanding one decision at a time.
Set up your wallet
Follow the guided setup to create your wallet and back up your recovery phrase. This phrase is the master key to your assets: write it down, keep it private and never share it with anyone.
Explore at your pace
Use Ledger Wallet to see and manage supported assets, check the details of each transaction on your signer, and learn what each action means before you confirm. Start small and stay curious.

Confidence is
built into the
small things.
Real security is not a promise to ignore. It is a collection of thoughtful choices you can understand and act on. Ledger combines a secure element inside the device with a clear on-device approval process, so signing a transaction requires your physical confirmation.
Your recovery phrase is yours alone. Ledger will never ask you to type it into a website or share it with support. Treat it like the master key it is: keep it offline, out of photos and messages, and away from anyone who asks for it.

A few things
worth knowing.
What is a Ledger signer?
A Ledger signer is a physical device that safeguards your private keys offline and lets you verify and approve crypto transactions. It works alongside Ledger Wallet, the companion app for managing supported assets.
What does self-custody mean?
Self-custody means you, not a platform, hold the private keys that control your digital assets. With that ownership comes responsibility: protect your recovery phrase and confirm every transaction carefully.
What if I lose my device?
Your recovery phrase can restore access to your wallet on a replacement device. Keep the phrase written down and stored securely offline. Anyone who gets it can access your crypto, so never share it—even with someone claiming to be Ledger Support.
Do I need to buy crypto to get started?
No. You can learn about wallets, security and self-custody before buying anything. Crypto values can change quickly, so take time to understand the risks and only make choices that suit your circumstances.
