Unbox Your Ledger

Remove your Ledger Nano Gen5 from the secure packaging. Verify the tamper-proof seal and included accessories: USB-C cable, recovery sheet, and quick start guide.

Download Ledger Live

Visit the official download page and install Ledger Live on your PC or Mac. Avoid third-party sources to prevent phishing and malware.

Connect & Initialize

Plug in your Ledger via USB-C. Follow on-screen prompts to set a PIN (4–8 digits). Write down your 24-word recovery phrase on the provided sheet – never store it digitally.

Install Apps

In Ledger Live, go to “Manager” and install apps for Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other coins you own. Each app enables secure management of that asset.
