Why do I need a Ledger hardware wallet?

Keeping your private keys offline, in a hardware wallet is far more secure than keeping it online. In addition, with hardware wallets like Ledger, you’re storing and securing your crypto by yourself. That way, you maintain exclusive control over your private keys, and therefore, your crypto.

Do Ledger hardware wallets only work with Ledger Wallet?

The Ledger Wallet app is built from the ground up to be compatible with Ledger hardware wallets. The app supports 1000s of cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin and Ethereum, making it an ideal companion for your hardware wallet. If you want to manage assets not supported by Ledger Wallet, you can use a third-party wallet together with a Ledger hardware wallet.

Is using a third-party wallet with Ledger hardware wallets secure?

You can use your hardware wallet with a compatible third-party software wallet. When using third-party wallets, make sure to get them through their official websites to avoid potential phishing attempts, and carefully review every transaction before signing it with your hardware wallet.
