Hardware Wallet Questions

Get answers to common questions about Ledger hardware wallets, security features, setup process, and cryptocurrency storage solutions.

A Ledger hardware wallet is a physical device that securely stores your cryptocurrency private keys offline. Unlike software wallets, your private keys never leave the device or touch the internet, making it immune to online attacks. The device generates and stores your keys on a secure chip, and transactions must be physically approved on the device screen.
