Why source verification matters

Fake wallet applications and imitation support pages can be designed to capture sensitive information. Use Ledger's own published resources rather than download links from unsolicited messages, pop-ups, or unknown websites.

Three stages for a more informed setup

STAGE 01

Install carefully

Visit Ledger's website, locate the appropriate desktop application, and follow the latest installation instructions for your operating system.

STAGE 02

Review account details

Follow the application's current setup flow. Review supported account information and make sure you understand the selected asset and network.

STAGE 03

Verify before approval

Carefully check the recipient address, amount, and network. When using a hardware wallet, verify the transaction on the device screen before confirming it.
