Security & best practices

  • Never share your 24-word recovery phrase. Ledger will never ask for it.
  • Keep firmware and Ledger Live updated to the latest versions.
  • Verify addresses on the device screen before confirming any transaction.
  • Store your recovery phrase offline in a secure place — use a fireproof safe or a metal backup.
  • Avoid entering your recovery phrase on any computer or phone; it’s meant for recovery only.
If you suspect compromise, move assets to a new wallet created from a new recovery phrase and keep the old device offline.

Troubleshooting & support

If Ledger Live won't connect to your device, try a different cable or USB port, ensure device firmware is up to date, and restart Ledger Live. For persistent issues, consult Ledger's official support documentation or community forums.
