🔧 2. Unbox & Initialize: Step-by-Step

  1. Unseal your device
     Ensure packaging is intact. If seals are broken or tampered with, contact support immediately.
  2. Plug in and power on
     Use the included USB cable to connect. The device will boot and greet you with a welcome message.
  3. Create or restore your wallet
  • New wallet: Choose “Set up as new device.”
  • Restore: If you’ve used a Ledger before, select “Restore from recovery phrase” to get back your existing wallet.
  1. Write down your recovery phrase
     A 24‑word phrase is generated. Protect it—never store it digitally. This phrase is your last line of defense.
  2. Confirm your phrase
     You'll swap words on the device to make sure it matches. This ensures you wrote it correctly and didn’t skip any.
