⚙️ How to Set Up Your Ledger Wallet
Setting up your Ledger device through Ledger.com/Start is simple and only takes a few minutes. Follow these steps carefully:

Your Ledger wallet’s strength lies in its offline design. The private keys remain inside your device’s secure element, completely isolated from the internet. Always make sure to verify any website you visit and access only Ledger.com/Start for setup or downloads.
- Never share your recovery phrase.
- Enable optional password protection on Ledger Live.
