Support & FAQ
How do I initialize my Ledger device?
Initialization is the first step in securing your crypto. You'll need to connect your Ledger device to your computer via USB-C, open Ledger Live, and follow the on-screen prompts to set up your PIN and recovery phrase.
What should I do if my device is unresponsive?
If your Ledger device doesn't respond, ensure it's properly connected and the power button is pressed. Try a different USB port or restart your computer. If the issue persists, contact Ledger Support for hardware diagnostics.

Never share your recovery phrase with anyone. It is the only way to recover your assets. Store it in a secure, offline location and never write it down on a physical piece of paper.
