Welcome! This guide will help you securely set up your Trezor device and protect your cryptocurrency assets from theft and loss.
Cryptocurrency is valuable and irreversible. Your Trezor ensures your private keys stay offline, minimizing hacking risks.
Start by carefully unboxing your Trezor device. Verify that the packaging is intact to ensure it hasn't been tampered with.
Do not use the device if the seal is broken or damaged. Contact Trezor support in such cases.
Use the included USB cable to connect your Trezor to your computer or mobile device.
Download the official Trezor Suite software from Trezor.io/start to manage your crypto assets.
Run the downloaded installer and follow on-screen instructions.
Follow platform-specific instructions on the Trezor website to complete installation.
After installation, initialize your Trezor by setting up a PIN and creating a backup of your recovery seed.
A strong PIN prevents unauthorized access. Avoid using obvious numbers like "1234".
Write down your 24-word recovery seed on the card provided. Store it offline in a safe place.
Do not store your recovery seed digitally (screenshots, photos, cloud storage). Keep it offline for maximum security.
Once set up, you can safely send and receive cryptocurrency transactions.
Select your wallet in Trezor Suite, enter the recipient’s address and amount, then confirm on your device.
Generate a receiving address and share it with the sender. Always double-check the address before sharing.
Verify transaction details on your device before approving to avoid sending funds to the wrong address.
Your Trezor is now ready for secure cryptocurrency management. Regularly follow best security practices to protect your assets.
