Testimonials
“Ledger = peace of mind. I'm sure some of us know that
unsettling feeling when you know you need a Ledger but
haven't quite organized yourself to get it sorted. If I
did it all again, I'd start with having a Ledger.”

"I got hacked in January and lost 1000s worth of NFTs. I
felt disgusted, lost, and willing to quit. Until my friend
told me he's ordering a Ledger. So, we bought the duo
deal. Since then, I've been sleeping."

“I use multiple Ledgers. Different colours = different
uses.Public Wallet. Never touch long term storage. Day to
day fund holdings. A back up just in case.”

"My Ledger is already called "Stew". As it is the steward
who looks after my crypto & NFTs, so I can sleep at
night."

"Ledger makes cold storage downright easy. My NFTs land
infinitely safer and I don’t have to feel as paranoid
about connecting to new smart contracts."

FAQ
Find answers to some of the most common questions.
Thinking about buying crypto or NFTs? You’ll need a
crypto wallet.
When you create a wallet, two keys are generated: a
private one and a public one. The wallet stores your
keys and enables you to sign transactions, generate
new addresses, initiate transfers, track portfolio
balances, manage your crypto, and interact with
dApps.
Crypto wallets come in many forms, from hardware
wallets, like Ledger’s, to mobile apps that you can
download on your phone or tablet.
The public key can be compared to a bank account
number that you can share with third parties to
receive crypto without worrying that your assets
will be compromised.
The private key signs transactions and allows you to
send and receive crypto. It’s crucial to keep your
private keys secure and secret. If anyone has access
to them, they will also have access to any crypto
assets associated with those keys.
A crypto wallet stores your private keys and gives
you access to your assets.
There are different types of crypto wallets, each
with its own benefits and drawbacks. Hot wallets
are connected to the internet and usually convenient
to use, however, they are also vulnerable to online
attacks. Examples include web-based, mobile, and
desktop wallets.
Cold wallets
keep your private keys offline and out of reach of
online threats. Examples include paper and hardware
wallets.
Wallets can also be categorized as custodial or
non-custodial, depending on who holds the private
keys. Storing your crypto in a custodial wallet
means that a third party controls your private keys
and, therefore, your assets. In contrast,
non-custodial wallets, like Ledger’s, enable you to
fully own and control your crypto.
Hot wallets store private keys on systems connected
to the internet, which makes them susceptible to
online attacks. Keeping your crypto on an exchange
also means you have no true ownership or control
over it. If the exchange files for bankruptcy or
pauses withdrawals, you lose access to your funds.
Hardware wallets store your private keys offline,
giving you full control and enhanced security. Even
if you misplace or lose your hardware wallet, you
can get a new one and use your Secret Recovery
Phrase to access your assets.
