In the world of cryptocurrency, security is paramount. A hardware wallet like Ledger ensures that your digital assets remain safe from online threats. If you’ve recently purchased a Ledger device, the first step is to set it up properly through Ledger.com/Start. This guide walks you through the process and highlights essential security measures.

When you receive your Ledger hardware wallet, make sure the package is sealed and untampered. Inside, you’ll find:

·         The Ledger hardware wallet (Nano S Plus, Nano X, or another model)

·         A USB cable

·         Recovery phrase sheets

·         A quick start guide

If any of these are missing or the package looks compromised, contact Ledger support before proceeding.

To ensure you’re downloading authentic software, visit Ledger.com/Start from a trusted browser.
