The official desktop application for managing your cryptocurrency portfolio with Ledger hardware wallets
Welcome to Ledger Live Desktop, the powerful desktop application designed specifically for managing your cryptocurrency portfolio with the highest level of security. Ledger Live Desktop combines the unparalleled protection of Ledger hardware wallets with a feature-rich desktop interface optimized for performance, reliability, and advanced cryptocurrency management.
With Ledger Live Desktop, you can manage all your crypto assets while maintaining complete control over your private keys. The application connects directly to your Ledger hardware wallet, ensuring that your sensitive information never leaves the secure element of your device.

Ledger Live Desktop offers a comprehensive suite of features tailored for desktop users.

The desktop version of Ledger Live provides significant performance advantages over the web version, particularly for users with large portfolios or those who frequently conduct complex operations. With multi-window support, you can monitor different aspects of your portfolio simultaneously, while the local data storage ensures your information remains private and accessible even without an internet connection.
Ledger Live Desktop integrates seamlessly with your Ledger hardware wallet, creating a secure environment for all your cryptocurrency activities. The application's architecture ensures that all operations requiring access to your private keys must be physically confirmed on your hardware device, providing an additional layer of security against potential malware or phishing attacks.
Beyond basic cryptocurrency management, Ledger Live Desktop offers advanced features for experienced users. You can explore the world of decentralized finance (DeFi) through integrated Web3 capabilities, stake various cryptocurrencies to earn rewards, and participate in the growing ecosystem of blockchain-based applications. The desktop application also provides enhanced export capabilities for tax reporting and portfolio analysis.
