Welcome to Trezor

Trezor hardware wallets provide the safest way to store and manage your cryptocurrency. By keeping your private keys offline, Trezor ensures that your digital assets remain secure from hackers, malware, and other online threats. Trezor is compatible with a wide range of cryptocurrencies, supporting both Trezor One and Trezor Model T devices. This page serves as a comprehensive starting point to help new users set up their wallet, understand the Trezor Suite application, and learn essential security best practices.

While Trezor hardware wallets are designed to be user-friendly, understanding the steps involved in setup, security, and recovery ensures a smoother experience and protects your investments. We encourage you to follow this guide carefully, taking time to understand each step and why it is important. By doing so, you are not only protecting your cryptocurrency today but also preparing for safe long-term management.

When you receive your Trezor hardware wallet, begin by carefully unboxing it. The package typically includes the Trezor device, a USB cable, and some documentation, including a recovery seed card. Before connecting the device, inspect it for any signs of tampering or damage. Authentic Trezor devices come in sealed packaging, and any signs of interference should be reported to the official support team before proceeding. Starting with an intact device ensures that your setup begins securely.

Keep all accessories close at hand and find a clean, well-lit workspace for the setup process. Organizing your environment reduces the risk of misplacing your recovery seed or missing an important step in the instructions. Take a few moments to read the included printed materials; even if you follow this online guide, the printed guidance serves as a handy reference.

To begin, connect your Trezor device to your computer using the included USB cable. Most devices power on automatically, but some may require you to press a button to activate them. Your operating system should recognize the device, and you may need to approve a connection prompt. Always verify that the device screen matches the instructions you see on your computer before continuing. This verification step ensures that your device has not been tampered with.

Next, download the official Trezor Suite from the Trezor website. Trezor Suite is the software interface that allows you to manage your cryptocurrency, perform transactions, and update your device firmware securely. The Suite is available for Windows, macOS, Linux, and as a web application. Only download Trezor Suite from official sources to prevent the risk of malware or counterfeit software.

When you first use your Trezor device, you will need to initialize a new wallet or restore an existing one. For new users, select the option to create a new wallet. You will be prompted to set up a PIN, which protects your device from unauthorized access. Choose a PIN that is secure, memorable, and unique from other personal codes you use. Entering your PIN correctly multiple times ensures you know it and can unlock your device reliably.

After setting your PIN, Trezor will generate a recovery seed—a sequence of 12 to 24 words that acts as a master backup for your wallet. Write the recovery seed down carefully on the provided card and store it offline in a secure location. Do not take photos or save it digitally, as this could compromise your security. Trezor Suite will guide you through confirming the seed by selecting words in order on the device, ensuring you have recorded it correctly.

Trezor Suite serves as the central hub for managing your wallet. Once your device is connected, the Suite displays a portfolio overview, showing balances, transaction history, and real-time prices for supported cryptocurrencies. You can send and receive funds securely, always verifying transaction details on the Trezor device before signing. This ensures that your private keys never leave the device and transactions are authenticated securely.

The Suite also allows firmware updates, which are essential for maintaining security. Keeping your Trezor firmware up-to-date ensures you benefit from the latest features and patches. Trezor Suite supports advanced functions such as passphrase protected wallets, hidden wallets, and multiple account management, giving you flexibility and privacy as you manage your crypto portfolio.

For users who manage multiple accounts or cryptocurrencies, Trezor Suite allows you to organize assets in one interface. Each account has a dedicated transaction history and balance tracker, making portfolio management simpler and more transparent.

Security is at the heart of Trezor's design, but responsible use also depends on the user. Some essential security practices include:

• Verify that you are using official Trezor software and firmware.
• Create a unique and strong PIN for your device.
• Store your recovery seed offline in a secure, private location.
• Enable passphrase-protected wallets for added security.
• Regularly check for software and firmware updates through Trezor Suite.
• Never share your PIN or recovery seed with anyone.
• Be cautious of phishing attempts or unofficial websites.

Following these practices significantly reduces the risk of unauthorized access and ensures that your digital assets remain safe over time. Remember, Trezor is designed to make secure crypto management intuitive, but careful handling by the user completes the security chain.

Trezor Suite can be installed on multiple computers or devices, making it easy to manage your cryptocurrency from different locations. Since private keys never leave the hardware wallet, your funds remain secure regardless of where you connect your device. Each connection requires confirmation on the Trezor device itself, ensuring that unauthorized connections cannot access your wallet.

For mobile users, Trezor Suite is accessible via compatible browsers or supported companion apps. Mobile access retains all security features, including device confirmation for transactions and offline key storage. This flexibility allows you to check balances, send funds, and monitor your portfolio from virtually anywhere while maintaining security.
