Intuitive security, premium design

Don't worry, you'll be able to access, manage, and retrieve your crypto as long as your Secret Recovery Phrase is safe and accessible only to you. Simply get another Ledger Stax™ or any other Ledger and recover access to your accounts using the Secret Recovery phrase.

When you store your crypto on an exchange or in a software wallet, your private keys live online, making them vulnerable to hacks, phishing, and malware. Exchanges hold custody of your funds, meaning you do not actually control your private keys. Software wallets, while convenient, still rely on internet-connected devices that can be compromised.

A Ledger secure touchscreen signer keeps your private keys offline inside a Certified Secure Element chip, the same type of high-security hardware used in passports and payment systems. 

Ledger also protects you with Clear Signing.  You can see exactly what you are approving before you sign, giving you complete control and eliminating the risk of hidden or malicious actions.

Choosing Ledger gives you true self-custody with physical security, offline protection, and transparent verification for every action, something no exchange or software wallet can match.

Even if someone steals your Ledger Stax™, they won't be able to access it without knowing your PIN. Entering the wrong PIN three times in a row will automatically reset your Ledger Stax™ to its factory settings.

After setting up your Ledger Stax™, you'll need to follow the steps outlined in this article to transfer your crypto from an exchange. If you want to send funds from a software wallet to your Ledger Stax™ follow this tutorial.

Security has evolved, and so have we. Ledger signer isn’t just a new name, it’s a new standard. A signer isn’t just a hardware wallet; it’s a device that proves you are truly you when accessing apps, signing transactions, and securing your digital life. Ledger devices don’t store digital value. They sign transactions. They prove intent. They verify identity. They’re the secure bridge between who you are and what you do online. They don’t just hold private keys. Signers empower you to trust yourself. We now call Ledger devices signers because that’s what they truly are.

The Secure Screen is controlled directly by the Secure Element of your signer, not your computer or phone, so what you see on the device screen is what you are actually approving, no hacker can alter it. It’s a critical safeguard, giving you complete transparency before you confirm a transaction, ensuring that what you see is what you sign.
