Ledger Hardware Wallets are some of the most secure and intuitive cryptocurrency hardware wallets out there. Although Ledger's native software supports a wide range of cryptocurrencies, MEW Portfolio allows Ledger users to manage any ERC-20 token on Ethereum and access integrated features like staking, swaps, ENS domain registration, and more.

This part is very important. Your Ledger device comes as its own SEPARATE, new wallet. It has its own private key, encrypted into the device itself. You should not try importing an old recovery/seed phrase into a hardware wallet, and you should NEVER use your hardware wallet's seed phrase in online wallets.

Don't have a wallet? Don't LOVE your wallet? Creating a new wallet with MEW is easy.

Step 1. If you haven't set up your new Ledger wallet yet, please visit the Ledger help center for instructions.

Step 2. Connect your Ledger device and head to myetherwallet.com.

Step 3. Select ‘Access My Wallet’ and choose the option that says ‘Hardware Wallets’. Please make sure that you already have the Ethereum app on your Ledger device and that your “Contract Data” is turned to 'Yes' (found in the settings section).

Step 4. On the Hardware wallets page, click the ‘Ledger’ option and a pop-up will appear listing your Ledger device.

Step 5. Click on your Ledger device's name in the pop-up window then click 'Connect' then 'Unlock wallet'.

Step 6. Select the network and address you would like to interact with.

Step 7. Once you've selected your network, derivation path (if applicable), and the address you'll like to interact with, you'll then read and agree to the terms then click 'Access my wallet'.
