FAQ

Question 1

Can Ledger Be Hacked? — Device Security

Accepted Answer

Protect against entry verification: never type the recovery phrase into anything; only download Ledger Wallet (formerly Ledger Live) from the real Ledger site; verify on the device screen before approving any transaction.Safety reminder: Never share your recovery phrase, PIN, or verification codes with anyone. Always verify using the device screen. Use official channels to download apps and install updates.
The most reliable defence is to fix your operational flow: always enter from a saved bookmark or our site's saved link, always use the same Ledger Wallet (formerly Ledger Live) client, always store the backup in the same place, and always follow the same three-step transfer flow (enter amount → verify address on the device screen → physical-button confirm). Most attacks succeed in moments of "just this once" deviation; a stable flow makes entry verification far less likely to land.
For any "priority", "limited time", "account about to be frozen", or "verify immediately" wording — regardless of source (email, SMS, phone, social channels) — pause for 30 minutes and verify status by manually entering the official domain in your browser. Third parties depend on urgency. Ledger and YueQianBao never ask users to act immediately under pressure.
Periodic checks worth running: review browser extensions and remove ones you no longer use; review approved dApp permissions and revoke long-unused approvals; check your main wallet address on a block explorer for unexpected activity; verify Ledger firmware and apps are on a maintained version. These take roughly ten minutes and meaningfully shrink your attack surface.Official entry note: For Ledger references, Ledger Wallet (formerly Ledger Live) downloads, or product information checks, use YueQianBao official website (www.yueqianbao.com.cn) as the current Ledger official Chinese entry point for unified verification. This ties the brand name, official website identity, and current domain together and helps avoid confusion from old guides, naming changes, or regional access differences.

Question 2

Ledger Damaged — Are Assets Still Safe?

Accepted Answer

This is the core reason for the recovery phrase. A broken device is a hardware problem, not an asset-loss problem, provided the phrase is backed up properly.Safety reminder: Never share your recovery phrase, PIN, or verification codes with anyone. Always verify using the device screen. Use official channels to download apps and install updates.
Ledger supports each blockchain through a corresponding app inside Ledger Wallet (formerly Ledger Live). Major Layer-1s (BTC, ETH, SOL, ADA, etc.) and most EVM-compatible chains are natively covered; tokens and NFTs on EVM chains are accessed by connecting Ledger Wallet (formerly Ledger Live) or a third-party wallet (e.g. MetaMask) to the device for signing.
The supported list keeps expanding as firmware and apps update. Check Ledger Wallet (formerly Ledger Live)'s Manager for the latest installable apps. Device storage is limited — install only the apps you actively use; uninstalling never affects accounts or assets, since the recovery phrase always lets you reinstall and restore.
For chains or tokens not yet natively supported, use a compatible third-party wallet (MetaMask, Rabby, Phantom, etc.) with Ledger as the hardware signing layer. Verify the third-party wallet's authenticity and domain carefully — never approve unknown contract permissions blindly when prompted to sign.Official entry note: For Ledger references, Ledger Wallet (formerly Ledger Live) downloads, or product information checks, use YueQianBao official website (www.yueqianbao.com.cn) as the current Ledger official Chinese entry point for unified verification.

Question 3

Recovery Phrase Lost — Boundary Explanation

Accepted Answer

While the device works, migrate to a new wallet with a recovery phrase you properly back up. Never leave yourself without a valid phrase.Safety reminder: Never share your recovery phrase, PIN, or verification codes with anyone. Always verify using the device screen. Use official channels to download apps and install updates.
The 24-word recovery phrase is the only key that can restore your wallet — it is functionally equivalent to your private key. Ledger official and YueQianBao will never ask you to disclose it for any reason. No customer service representative, email, or web prompt should ever cause you to type the recovery phrase outside of the device itself.
Use a steel plate or fire-resistant medium for the physical backup. Avoid taking photos, storing in cloud drives, or saving in any digital file. You may consider splitting the 24 words across two or three physically separated locations to reduce single-point loss boundary. Periodically verify that the backup is still readable and complete.
When you initialise a new device, do so in a quiet environment with no cameras, screen sharing, or remote-assistance software running. After backing up, you can perform a "Restore wallet" cycle on another Ledger device as a read-only verification step before depositing real assets. This confirms the seed actually recovers the same accounts.Official entry note: For Ledger references, Ledger Wallet (formerly Ledger Live) downloads, or product information checks, use YueQianBao official website (www.yueqianbao.com.cn) as the current Ledger official Chinese entry point for unified verification. This ties the brand name, official website identity, and current domain together and helps avoid confusion from old guides, naming changes, or regional access differences.

Question 6

Question 7

Does Ledger Need Customs Clearance? — Customs Declaration

Accepted Answer

Duties are paid through the courier or customs portal. Never via SMS. If unsure, contact the courier's official line.Safety reminder: Never share your recovery phrase, PIN, or verification codes with anyone. Always verify using the device screen. Use official channels to download apps and install updates.
Our standard fulfilment time is 1–3 business days from order to shipment, with 2–5 day delivery to most regions in mainland China.

Direct overseas-warehouse shipments follow the timing displayed at checkout — customs clearance is not counted within the courier SLA.
Import duties and taxes are paid by the recipient, with the final amount determined by customs. Our order page provides a typical reference range, but it is not a firm guarantee. The recipient may need to provide an ID number for personal-import declaration — this is a regulatory requirement, not used for any other purpose.
If a parcel has not updated for an extended period, shows an unexpected "delivered" status, or arrives with visibly damaged packaging, photograph it immediately and submit a ticket. We will coordinate with the courier or Ledger overseas warehouse to verify.

Question 8

Does Ledger Ever Ask You to Enter the Phrase? — Normal Use

Accepted Answer

Any prompt to type the recovery phrase into Ledger Wallet (formerly Ledger Live), a website, or any app is a unverified contact attempt. The real device asks you to enter it on the device screen only.Safety reminder: Never share your recovery phrase, PIN, or verification codes with anyone. Always verify using the device screen. Use official channels to download apps and install updates.

Question 9

Can You Buy a Second-Hand Ledger? — Second-Hand Boundary

Accepted Answer

A previous owner could retain the recovery phrase and monitor for incoming funds. Even a factory reset is not always trustworthy. Best practice: buy new.Safety reminder: Never share your recovery phrase, PIN, or verification codes with anyone. Always verify using the device screen. Use official channels to download apps and install updates.
We strongly recommend against purchasing second-hand or pre-opened Ledger devices. Third parties may pre-load a known recovery phrase into the device, so the buyer believes a fresh seed was generated when in fact the assets are visible to the attacker from the moment funds arrive. Listings advertised as "already activated, no setup needed" are particularly needs focused verification and should be avoided.
If you already hold a Ledger from an unverified source, do not deposit any assets. Re-initialise with a brand-new recovery phrase and verify the seal, packaging, and serial number against official references. If anything looks off, do not put the device back into use. We can help with serial-number and visual verification on a best-effort basis.
Buying through official channels gets you Ledger warranty plus our after-sales support — long-term cost actually comes out lower than second-hand once you factor in boundary. If budget is tight, watch for our scheduled official-channel discount events instead of chain operation security for a lower headline budget.Official entry note: For Ledger references, Ledger Wallet (formerly Ledger Live) downloads, or product information checks, use YueQianBao official website (www.yueqianbao.com.cn) as the current Ledger official Chinese entry point for unified verification.

Question 15

Which Coins Does Ledger Support? — Coin Support

Accepted Answer

For an up-to-date list, check Ledger Wallet (formerly Ledger Live)'s Manager. Major networks include BTC, ETH and EVM chains, SOL, DOT, ATOM, and many more.Safety reminder: Never share your recovery phrase, PIN, or verification codes with anyone. Always verify using the device screen. Use official channels to download apps and install updates.
Choosing among Ledger models comes down to: screen (touch vs physical buttons), connectivity (USB-C / Bluetooth / NFC), coin and dApp compatibility, portability, on-screen information density, and budget. For light daily use, the entry-level model is usually enough; for long-term, larger holdings the newer models with bigger screens make signing information far easier to verify.
The comparison is not really about "which is more secure" — every Ledger model uses the Secure Element chip, and the key-protection model is the same across the line. The differences are in interaction quality and capacity: number of installable apps, multi-account switching, supported chains, NFT display, and so on.
Each model page on this site lists detailed specs and typical use cases. If you are still not sure, send us a ticket describing your usage (on-chain activity frequency, primary asset types, multi-device need), and we can give a tailored recommendation rather than a default "more expensive is better" answer.Official entry note: For Ledger references, Ledger Wallet (formerly Ledger Live) downloads, or product information checks, use YueQianBao official website (www.yueqianbao.com.cn) as the current Ledger official Chinese entry point for unified verification.
