How To Set Up & Use The Ledger Nano S Plus

Fan of NFTs? Well then, you’re going to LOVE the latest product to hit the Coinstop store: the Ledger Nano S Plus. The Ledger Nano S Plus takes the iconic Ledger Nano S, and makes it DeFi and NFT-friendly! 

As a cold storage hardware wallet, the Ledger Nano S Plus achieves the perfect balance between convenience and the highest form of security:

  • Offline storage of your cryptocurrency wallets, through which you can shuffle with two buttons.
  • Ownership of your private key.
  • Device wipeout if the pin code is entered incorrectly three times.
  • Offline creation of a 24-word recovery phrase, with which you can recover the device's wallets.
  • Stainless steel-protected screen just large enough to view your cryptocurrency addresses, different wallets, pin code, and recovery phrase.
  • Manage your NFTs safely - send and sign your NFT transactions with full transparency in Ledger Live: what you see is what you sign
