Welcome to Trezor®
Starting your Trezor hardware wallet is straightforward yet secure. This device ensures your private keys never leave the hardware, giving you full control over your digital assets.
Think of your device as a cryptographic fortress: all sensitive actions are confirmed physically.
Initial Setup & Device Start
- Unbox the Trezor device and connect it via the official USB cable.
- Visit the official Trezor Web or Trezor Suite interface.
- Select "Create New Wallet" or "Recover Wallet" depending on your scenario.
- Write down the generated 24-word recovery seed on a secure medium — never store digitally.
- Confirm the seed on the device to ensure accuracy.
Secure Login Procedure
- Connect your Trezor device to your computer or compatible mobile device.
- Open Trezor Suite or supported wallet interface.
- Enter your PIN using the on-device input for maximum security.
- Optionally input your passphrase to access a hidden wallet.
- Approve all transactions physically on the device before signing.
Best Practices & Tips
- Keep firmware updated to prevent vulnerabilities.
- Use strong, memorable PINs — consider a story-based "pinforge" method.
- Store recovery seeds in geographically separate secure locations.
- Practice recovery on a test device to verify backups.
- Limit use of hot wallets; keep majority funds in deep-cold storage.
