Install tips

Always install from official pages or well-known stores. Check the domain (phantom.com) and reviews. Avoid third-party downloads or cloned pages that request seed phrases.

Using Phantom with Ledger

Why combine Phantom + Ledger?

A Ledger hardware device stores private keys offline. When you connect Ledger to Phantom, transactions are signed on the physical device, drastically reducing the risk of remote compromise while still letting you use dApps and NFTs via Phantom’s UX.

Official Ledger resources

Never enter your Ledger recovery phrase into any website or extension. Download Ledger Live only from the official Ledger domain to avoid fake apps and malware.
