Secure your cryptocurrency journey with Trezor
Trezor is a leading hardware wallet designed to keep your cryptocurrency secure. This guide will walk you through starting up your Trezor device and understanding its features.
Always keep your recovery seed safe. This is the key to your crypto assets.
When you receive your Trezor device, ensure that the package is sealed and untampered. Unbox it carefully and check for all components.
Use the included USB cable to connect your device. Open the Trezor website at trezor.io/start to begin setup.
Your Trezor may require a firmware update. Follow the on-screen instructions carefully to ensure your device is up-to-date.
Choose "Create a New Wallet" and write down your recovery seed carefully. Do not store it digitally to avoid hacking risks.
Your Trezor device is highly secure, but there are best practices to follow:
For extra security, use a passphrase in addition to your recovery seed. This ensures that even if your seed is compromised, your funds remain safe.
To reset your device, navigate to the device settings and select "Wipe Device". Make sure you have your recovery seed backed up.
Without your recovery seed, you cannot recover your wallet. Store it securely offline.
