Managing NFTs in Ledger Live

 Note for Ledger Nano S users

Sending NFTs is not currently available for Ledger Nano S users. Attempting to send an NFT using your Ledger Nano S will result in an error. However, you can utilize OpenSea through MetaMask to send your NFTs with your Ledger Nano S.

This tutorial describes how to manage your Ethereum and Polygon-based NFTs inside Ledger Live.

Before you start

  • Ensure the latest version of the Ethereum (ETH) app / Polygon (MATIC) is installed on your Ledger device.
  • Ensure blind signing is enabled in the Ethereum (ETH) / Polygon (MATIC) app on your Ledger device.
    You can learn how to do this
    here.
  • Ensure that your Ledger device runs the latest firmware version. You can learn more here (Nano S users), here (Nano S Plus users), or here (Nano X users).
  • Ensure you are running Ledger Live 2.40 or above. You can learn how to update Ledger Live here.

 I received or was airdropped an unknown NFT

Occasionally, you might receive or will be airdropped unknown NFTs in Ledger Live. If you notice a new NFT in Ledger Live that you don’t remember collecting, please do not send it or interact with it, as it could be malicious. Instead, it's recommended to hide it in Ledger Live as explained here.

Viewing your NFTs on account in Ledger Live

My NFT is not showing in Ledger Live

  • Some NFTs might take a while to update their metadata (information) from the explorer's API, so your NFT's image may not be immediately visible. If you're experiencing this, attempt to refresh the metadata on Rarible. Note, it can take up to 24 hours for the information to update.

  • If your NFT doesn't comply with the ERC721 or ERC1155 standards (like the CryptoPunks collection), it won't appear in Ledger Live. Instead, you can use OpenSea in conjunction with MetaMask to access NFTs stored on your Ledger account.

  1. Go to the Accounts section in Ledger Live.
  2. Click on the Ethereum / Polygon account that holds your NFT.
    Detailed information about your account will open.
