When you buy crypto like Bitcoin and Ethereum, you’re issued with two keys: the public and private keys. The public key can be compared to a bank account number that you can share with third parties to receive crypto without worrying that your assets will be compromised. The private key signs transactions and allows you to send and receive crypto. It's crucial to keep your private keys secure and secret. If anyone has access to them, they will also have access to any crypto assets associated with those keys. A crypto wallet stores your private keys and gives you access to your assets.

A non-custodial wallet, also known as a self-custodial wallet (enter the infamous crypto term ‘self-custody’) is a crypto wallet that puts you in complete control of your public and private keys.
How so? Instead of entrusting your keys to a third-party, non-custodial wallets give you, the wallet’s owner, the exclusive responsibility of securing your private keys and wallet.
A non-custodial wallet is a direct link to your blockchain address without any dependence on another entity, eliminating the possibility of asset confiscation.
Non-custodial wallets are completely controlled by you and you alone, meaning they are censorship-resistant and also have no transaction limits. In other words, a non-custodial wallet is your one-way ticket to financial freedom.
The Ledger Wallet™ app (formerly Ledger Live™) is a safe and easy interface for managing your cryptocurrencies using your Ledger device.
Unlike most apps, the Ledger Wallet™ crypto wallet app keeps your data directly on your phone or computer, so there’s no need to sign in using an email and password.
All that’s required is your Ledger device and of course, you.
After setting up your Ledger Signer, 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 Signer follow this tutorial.
Touchscreen signers (Ledger Flex™, Ledger Stax™, and Ledger Nano™ Gen5), take everything from the Ledger Nano™ family and level it up. They're the only Ledger devices to support Transaction Check, which lets you verify exactly what you're signing before you approve it. And with Clear Signing displayed on a large screen, reviewing transaction details becomes easier. No more squinting at truncated addresses. Touchscreen signers also let you customize your lock screen with any image, NFT, or digital artwork you like, because security doesn't have to be boring. Oh, and did we mention you navigate everything with a simple tap and swipe? Same Ledger security. Better experience, inside and out.
