Setting Up Your Ledger® Wallet

1. Unbox Your Device – Each Ledger device comes with everything you need, including a secure wallet, USB cable, and recovery sheets. Always ensure your device is sealed and purchased from the official Ledger website.

3. Initialize Your Device – Follow the on-screen instructions to set up a new wallet. You’ll create a secure PIN and receive a recovery phrase. Important: Store your recovery phrase offline and never share it. This phrase is the only way to recover your funds if your device is lost or damaged.
