Ledger (hardware wallet)
A Ledger hardware wallet is a physical device designed to securely store your cryptocurrency private keys offline, away from internet threats. It acts like a secure vault, allowing you to manage and authorize transactions without exposing sensitive information to online hackers. When you want to send or receive cryptocurrency, the Ledger device signs the transaction internally, ensuring your assets remain protected even if your computer or online accounts are compromised. Essentially, it provides a high level of security for digital assets by keeping private keys isolated from potential cyber threats.
