Physical Transaction Verification

For supported transactions, the hardware wallet provides an additional confirmation step. Users should carefully review the details shown on the device before approving an action.

Keep Your Setup Secure

Only use legitimate Ledger software and verify the source before installing an application. Avoid suspicious links and websites requesting confidential wallet information.

Most importantly, keep your Secret Recovery Phrase private. Do not share it with anyone or enter it into websites claiming to verify or restore your wallet.
