Ledger Live™ your all-in-one crypto wallet app

A crypto wallet is a digital tool that allows users to store, manage, and interact with cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, and many others. It plays a crucial role in the cryptocurrency ecosystem, enabling users to securely manage their digital assets and perform various transactions.

Crypto wallets come in various types, each offering different levels of security, convenience, and functionality.

The most secure crypto wallets are physical devices called hardware wallets, designed to enhance the security of your private keys by securely storing them offline. These crypto wallets physically store your private keys within a chip inside the device itself.

A Web3 wallet is essentially your digital keychain for the new internet era—Web3. It’s your all access pass to the decentralized world. Instead of relying on classic institutions like banks to manage your online currencies, a Web3 wallet puts you, and you alone, in control.

Beyond holding your cryptocurrencies, it also lets you interact with cool decentralized apps. Want to trade unique digital items or play games without a middleman? Your Web3 wallet is the go-to tool.

Web3 wallets are extremely user friendly, letting you log in and navigate decentralized apps with ease all while keeping your private keys safe. Think of it as your digital superhero cape—giving you power and security in the wild, wild Web3.

A non-custodial wallet, also known as a self-custodial wallet (enter the infamous crypto term ‘self-custody’) is a crypto wallet that puts you in complete control of your public and private keys.

How so? Instead of entrusting your keys to a third-party, non-custodial wallets give you, the wallet’s owner, the exclusive responsibility of securing your private keys and wallet.

A non-custodial wallet is a direct link to your blockchain address without any dependence on another entity, eliminating the possibility of asset confiscation.

Non-custodial wallets are completely controlled by you and you alone, meaning they are censorship-resistant and also have no transaction limits. In other words, a non-custodial wallet is your one-way ticket to financial freedom.

Coins refer to any cryptocurrency that has an independent blockchain — like Bitcoin. Put simply, if the cryptocurrency runs on its own blockchain, then it is a coin. This native coin is what you use for paying transaction fees and participating in the network, and what network participants receive in return for keeping that network secure.

The Ledger Live crypto wallet app supports Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Ripple (XRP), Litecoin (LTC), Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Polkadot (DOT), Chainlink (LINK), Cardano (ADA), Stellar (XLM), Solana (SOL), Tezos (XTZ) and more. It also supports various ERC-20 tokens and other popular cryptocurrencies.

The Ledger Live crypto wallet app platform is regularly updated to include support for new coins and tokens, so it’s a good idea to check for the latest information on the official Ledger website or within the Ledger Live application itself.
