Ledger Live is designed exclusively for use with Ledger hardware wallets and provides the interface through which users can securely manage their cryptocurrency assets. The security of your digital assets depends on properly setting up and using both your Ledger device and the Ledger Live application according to official guidelines. Always ensure you are downloading the genuine Ledger Live application from official sources listed on ledger.com or authorized app stores. Ledger cannot be responsible for assets stored on non-Ledger devices or for users who fail to follow security best practices, including safeguarding their 24-word recovery phrase. Cryptocurrency investments are volatile and carry inherent risk; users should only invest what they can afford to lose. The features, supported assets, and services available in Ledger Live may vary by region due to regulatory requirements and are subject to change without notice.
