Welcome to Trezor.io/start! Here, you’ll find everything you need to get started with Trezor, the trusted hardware wallet for securing your cryptocurrency investments. Let’s walk through setting up your Trezor device, so you can protect your assets with peace of mind and ease. 🚀
Trezor is one of the top hardware wallets globally, providing offline storage for your digital assets. It’s designed to keep your cryptocurrency safe from online threats like hacks and malware. Using a hardware wallet like Trezor helps ensure that your funds remain secure and within your control at all times.
Visit Trezor.io/start Head to Trezor.io/start, the official setup page, to begin. This page guides you through downloading Trezor Suite, the desktop app for managing your crypto safely.
Download Trezor Suite Trezor Suite is available for Windows, macOS, and Linux. It provides a secure platform to check your balance, send, and receive crypto assets. You can also access Trezor Suite as a web app, though the desktop version offers added security.
Connect Your Trezor Device Using the provided USB cable, connect your Trezor device to your computer. Follow the prompts to install any necessary firmware updates. This step ensures your Trezor has the latest security features.
Create Your Wallet & Backup
New Wallet Setup: Choose the "Create new wallet" option.
Write Down Your Recovery Seed: You’ll be given a unique 12, 18, or 24-word seed. Write it down carefully, as this is the only way to recover your funds if your device is lost or damaged. Keep this seed offline and secure!
Set a Strong PIN Next, create a PIN to unlock your device each time you use it. This adds an extra layer of security to your Trezor and keeps unauthorized users out.
Optional: Add a Passphrase Advanced users can set a passphrase for even more security. This is like adding a custom password on top of your recovery seed and PIN.
Add Cryptocurrency Accounts Once set up, use Trezor Suite to add cryptocurrency accounts. Trezor supports many coins, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, and more. You can now send, receive, and monitor your assets with confidence.
Keep Your Recovery Seed Safe: Store it offline, ideally in multiple secure locations.
Regular Firmware Updates: Trezor releases firmware updates to stay ahead of security threats. Keep your device updated.
Only Use Official Trezor Sites: Always verify that you’re on an official Trezor page and avoid clicking on unfamiliar links.
