Welcome to Trezor.io/start — your official guide to setting up and securing your cryptocurrency with Trezor, one of the most trusted hardware wallets available. Whether you’re new to crypto or a seasoned user, Trezor offers top-level security to help keep your digital assets safe from hackers and online threats. Let’s get started! 🪙
First, make sure you have an official Trezor device in hand! Trezor offers two main models:
Trezor Model One: The classic, budget-friendly model supporting most major cryptocurrencies.
Trezor Model T: The advanced model with a touchscreen and support for an even wider range of coins.
💡 Tip: Buy your Trezor only from the official Trezor website or authorized retailers to ensure it’s authentic!
Once you have your device, visit Trezor.io/start. Here, you’ll find everything you need to download and set up Trezor Suite, the official Trezor software.
Desktop Version: Compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux.
Web Version: You can also access Trezor Suite from the web, though the desktop app is generally more secure.
Follow the steps to connect your Trezor device and install the latest firmware. Trezor Suite will guide you through setting up a new wallet or restoring an existing wallet.
Important:
Backup Your Recovery Seed: Write down the 12, 18, or 24-word recovery seed given during setup. This is the only way to recover your wallet if you lose your device. Store it in a safe place, away from any online storage!
Set Up a PIN: For an extra layer of security, choose a PIN that you’ll enter each time you access your Trezor.
🔐 Safety First: Never share your recovery seed with anyone or store it digitally. This seed is the key to your wallet!
Once your Trezor is secure, it’s time to start managing your crypto! Trezor Suite lets you add accounts for various cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and many others.
Send and Receive: Easily send and receive crypto with confidence, knowing that each transaction is verified on your Trezor device.
Monitor Your Portfolio: Use Trezor Suite to view and track your holdings in real time.
With Trezor, you’re taking control of your digital assets and securing them from threats. Regularly check Trezor.io/start for updates, and enjoy the peace of mind that comes with knowing your crypto is safe.
