The Smart Way to Secure Your Crypto: Start with Ledger.com/Start®

As cryptocurrencies become more mainstream, so does the risk of losing them to hacks, scams, or poor security practices. Whether you’ve just bought your first crypto or you're managing a growing portfolio, your first priority should be security — and there’s no smarter way to start than with Ledger.com/Start®.

Ledger.com/Start® is your official launchpad into the world of secure crypto self-custody. It guides you through setting up a Ledger hardware wallet — a device trusted by millions to protect digital assets from online threats.

Why Self-Custody Matters

The phrase “not your keys, not your crypto” exists for a reason. If your coins are stored on an exchange or web-based wallet, you're essentially trusting someone else with your money. And as we’ve seen with several high-profile exchange failures, that trust can be dangerous.

Ledger puts control back in your hands by giving you sole access to your private keys, which are securely stored offline in a physical hardware wallet. Ledger.com/Start® is where that journey begins — a simplified, step-by-step process to make your wallet safe and functional.

Security Without Compromise

Ledger wallets use Secure Element Chips, the same technology used in passports and payment cards. Your private keys never leave the device — not even for transactions. That means even if your computer or phone is compromised, your crypto stays protected.

With phishing scams and malware on the rise, this level of protection is more than useful — it’s essential.
