How Hardware Wallets Work

Understanding the technology that keeps your crypto safe

What is a Hardware Wallet?

A hardware wallet is a physical device that stores your cryptocurrency private keys offline, away from potential online threats. Unlike software wallets that keep your keys on internet-connected devices, hardware wallets provide an additional layer of security by keeping your keys in a secure, isolated environment.

When you want to make a transaction, the hardware wallet signs it internally without exposing your private keys to your computer or smartphone, ensuring maximum security even when connecting to potentially compromised devices.

Why Offline Storage Matters

The cryptocurrency space faces constant threats from hackers, malware, and phishing attacks. By keeping your private keys offline, hardware wallets eliminate the most common attack vectors that affect hot wallets and exchanges.

Even if your computer is infected with malware, your private keys remain safe inside the secure element chip of your Ledger device. This "cold storage" approach is considered the gold standard for cryptocurrency security.

The Ledger Security Model

1. Secure Element Chip

Your private keys are stored in a certified secure element (CC EAL5+), the same chip used in passports and credit cards.

2. Custom OS (BOLOS)

Our proprietary operating system creates an isolated environment for each crypto app, preventing cross-contamination.

3. PIN & Recovery

Multiple layers of protection including PIN code, optional passphrase, and 24-word recovery phrase backup.

Frequently Asked Questions

What cryptocurrencies does Ledger support?

Ledger supports over 5,500 cryptocurrencies and tokens, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, Litecoin, and thousands of ERC-20 tokens. We continuously add support for new assets through regular firmware updates.

What if I lose my Ledger device?

Your funds are never stored on the device itself—they're on the blockchain. As long as you have your 24-word recovery phrase safely stored, you can restore your accounts on a new Ledger device or any compatible wallet. This is why securing your recovery phrase is crucial.

Can Ledger devices be hacked?

Ledger devices are built with bank-grade security. The secure element chip is certified CC EAL5+, protecting against physical and software attacks. While no system is 100% unhackable, Ledger uses multiple layers of security and has never had a successful attack on the device itself. Always purchase directly from Ledger or authorized resellers to ensure authenticity.

Do I need Ledger Live to use my device?

Ledger Live is the recommended companion app for managing your crypto, but it's not mandatory. Your Ledger device is compatible with many third-party wallets and platforms. However, Ledger Live provides the most integrated experience with features like portfolio tracking, buying crypto, staking, and easy app management.

How long does shipping take?

Shipping times vary by location. Most orders arrive within 7-14 business days. Express shipping options are available at checkout. All devices come in tamper-proof packaging to ensure they haven't been compromised during transit.

Is there a warranty?

All Ledger devices come with a 2-year warranty covering manufacturing defects. We also offer excellent customer support and comprehensive documentation to help you get the most out of your device.
