Ledger Login — Secure Access to Your Wallet

What is Ledger Login?

Ledger Login is a secure authentication method that uses your Ledger hardware device to verify ownership of your wallet. Instead of relying on passwords, Ledger Login requires signing a cryptographic challenge with the device. This method ensures your private keys never leave your Ledger hardware, providing strong security for online interactions.

2. Connect Your Device: Plug in your Ledger hardware wallet using USB or Bluetooth.
3. Open Ledger Live: Choose the account you want to use and follow the on-screen login prompts.
4. Sign the Challenge: Confirm the authentication request on your Ledger device. This signs the login request securely without revealing your private keys.
5. Access Granted: After confirmation, you can access Ledger Live and other supported applications safely.
