Daily Maintenance Tips to Keep Official Site® | Ledger.com/Start® | Getting Started Ledger Crypto Secure

Using a Ledger® hardware wallet is one of the smartest ways to protect your cryptocurrency. But owning the wallet is just the beginning—maintaining daily crypto hygiene is essential to keeping your assets truly safe.

This guide covers daily maintenance tips to help you protect your wallet, your devices, and your digital future—starting from the only official source: Ledger.com/Start®.

✅ Why Daily Maintenance Matters

Security is not a one-time setup—it’s a daily mindset.

Even with a secure device like Ledger®, careless habits can expose you to:

  • Phishing attacks
  • Malware and keyloggers
  • Misuse of recovery phrases
  • Unsafe browser behavior

By staying disciplined and following a few quick steps, you can lock down your crypto day by day.

🛡️ Daily Maintenance Tips for Ledger® Users

1. Always Start at Ledger.com/Start®

Make it a habit to begin every update or app download by visiting Ledger.com/Start®. This official site® ensures:

  • You download only trusted software
  • You avoid fake apps or phishing sites
  • You stay updated with the latest best practices

Bookmark the site and don’t rely on search engines or emailed links.

2. Use a Dedicated, Clean Device

If possible, manage your Ledger® wallet from a computer or phone that’s only used for crypto. This reduces exposure to spyware, social media trackers, or infected downloads.

If that's not possible:

  • Keep your operating system and antivirus software updated
  • Don’t install unknown apps
  • Avoid clicking links in suspicious emails or pop-ups

3. Check for Ledger Live Updates Daily

Open Ledger Live (downloaded via Ledger.com/Start®) and check for any software updates. Updates may include:

  • Security patches
  • Bug fixes
  • New asset or staking support
💡 Pro tip: Enable auto-updates or check the settings tab in Ledger Live.

4. Verify Receiving Addresses on Your Device

Every time you receive crypto, use the "Receive" tab in Ledger Live and verify the address on your Ledger® screen. This confirms it's not being altered by malware on your computer.

Never copy/paste addresses from messages or websites. Only trust addresses confirmed by your Ledger® device.

5. Keep Your Recovery Phrase Offline—Always

This is crucial:

  • Never store your 24-word recovery phrase in a note, document, cloud storage, or email.
  • Never type it into a computer or phone.
  • Never share it with anyone—not even Ledger® support.

If you're ever prompted to enter your recovery phrase on a website, it’s a scam. The official site Ledger.com/Start® will never ask for it.

6. Unplug and Secure Your Ledger® When Not in Use

Treat your Ledger® device like your passport or a key to your safe:

  • Store it in a secure, hidden place
  • Disconnect it after each session
  • Never leave it plugged into an unattended computer

This simple habit limits physical access and accidental misuse.

7. Be Cautious of “Ledger” Impersonators

Ledger® has one official site: Ledger.com/Start®

Watch out for:

  • Fake browser extensions
  • Ads pretending to be Ledger Live
  • Emails or DMs pretending to be Ledger® support

If in doubt, type Ledger.com/Start® manually and double-check URLs before clicking.

8. Review Your Transactions

Take a few minutes each day to:

  • Open Ledger Live
  • Review recent sends and receives
  • Look for any unusual activity

Catching suspicious behavior early can prevent bigger problems later.

9. Practice Strong Device Habits

  • Use a strong, unique PIN code on your Ledger®
  • Don’t write it down near your device
  • Restart your device occasionally for a clean session
  • Don’t share your screen while using Ledger Live

10. Educate Yourself Through Official Resources

Ledger® provides continuous education and updates. Stay informed by checking:

  • The blog at Ledger.com
  • Video tutorials linked from Ledger.com/Start®
  • Security alerts published in Ledger Live

A few minutes of reading can help you avoid costly mistakes.

Your Ledger® hardware wallet gives you a secure foundation, but it's your daily habits that make your crypto truly safe.

The key points:

  • Visit Ledger.com/Start® every time for updates or setup
