Step 2: Install the Ethereum App
Pendle is built on the Ethereum blockchain. You need the Ethereum app installed on your Ledger device to manage Pendle tokens.
1. Open Ledger Live: Launch the Ledger Live application.
2. Go to ‘Manager’: On the left sidebar, click on ‘Manager.’
3. Install the Ethereum App: In the device application list, find the Ethereum app. Click on ‘Install’ to add it to your Ledger device.

Now that you have installed the Ethereum app, you can add Pendle tokens to your Ledger Live account.

1. Find Your Pendle Tokens: Go to your recently added Ethereum account. If you’ve already received some Pendle tokens, they will appear here.
2. Adding Pendle via Smart Contracts: If you need to add Pendle manually (for example, if your tokens do not show up automatically), you can do so by using a wallet interface like MetaMask or directly interacting with the Pendle protocol via their platform.
Step 5: Monitor and Utilize Your Pendle Tokens
Once you’ve added your Pendle tokens, you can monitor their values and use them in a decentralized finance (DeFi) context. You can access all available Pendle features through supported platforms.
