A concise presentation-style briefing you can copy into a slide or a website. Explains what Ledger Live is, why it matters, how it works, and where to get official resources.
Ledger Live is the official desktop & mobile companion app for Ledger hardware wallets. It provides a single interface to manage multiple crypto accounts, view real-time portfolio balances, send and receive assets, and access supported DeFi and Web3 services — all while keeping private keys secured by Ledger hardware devices. This presentation summarizes features, security principles, supported assets, and recommended user workflows.
Ledger Live is a secure wallet application that acts as the user interface for Ledger hardware wallets. It lets users create and manage accounts for different cryptocurrencies, verify and sign transactions using the Ledger device, and maintain visibility over holdings without exposing seed phrases or private keys in the host computer or phone.
Hobbyist holders, professional self-custodians, institutions evaluating hardware-backed custody, and developers building integrations with Ledger-supported flows.
Real-time portfolio view across multiple accounts and blockchains. Users can add accounts, view transaction history, and get a unified balance dashboard.
All transaction signing happens on the hardware wallet, so even if the host is compromised the private key never leaves the device. The app displays transaction details and prompts the user to confirm on their Ledger device.
Ledger Live offers staking for select assets and access to partner services (swap, buy/sell, tokenized assets) through integrations that extend functionality without exposing keys.
The backbone of Ledger Live’s security model is the hardware wallet: secure elements that isolate private keys and require physical confirmation for critical actions. This reduces attack surface compared to software-only wallets.
Seed phrases (recovery phrases) are generated on the device and must never be entered into Ledger Live or any website. Ledger has published guidance and additional products (e.g., Ledger Recovery Key) to help users with secure recovery options.
Ledger Live supports thousands of cryptocurrencies either natively or via partner integrations and third-party wallets when necessary. The supported assets list is maintained on the official Ledger site and is updated regularly as new chains and tokens are added.
Developers can build apps and integrations using Ledger’s developer portal and APIs to interact with Ledger Live or to enable hardware-backed signing inside their dApps.
Below are official Ledger pages for downloads, support, docs and more — useful to paste into slides or to hand out in a presentation.
Tip: include this resources list as the final slide in a presentation so attendees have direct, official links.
