Welcome to Trezor.io/start

Trezor.io/start is your comprehensive guide to setting up the world's most trusted hardware wallet. As cryptocurrency adoption grows, securing your digital assets has never been more critical. Trezor pioneered the hardware wallet industry in 2014 and continues to set the standard for security and usability.

Unlike software wallets that store private keys on internet-connected devices, Trezor keeps your keys offline in a dedicated hardware device. This "cold storage" approach provides unparalleled protection against hacking, phishing, and malware attacks. Your private keys never leave the device, ensuring that even if your computer is compromised, your cryptocurrency remains safe.

The setup process at Trezor.io/start is designed to be accessible for beginners while maintaining the rigorous security standards expected by cryptocurrency veterans. Whether you're storing Bitcoin, Ethereum, or any of the 1,000+ supported cryptocurrencies, Trezor provides a unified, secure platform for managing your entire portfolio.

This is how it works

Follow these simple steps to secure your crypto

1

Download Trezor Suite App

Begin your secure crypto journey by downloading the official Trezor Suite application. Available for Windows, macOS, and Linux, this powerful software serves as your command center for managing digital assets. The Suite provides an intuitive interface that connects seamlessly with your Trezor hardware wallet, ensuring your private keys never leave the device.

2

Install the App

Installation is straightforward and secure. Run the downloaded file and follow the on-screen prompts. The app is regularly updated with the latest security features and cryptocurrency support. You can also choose to use the web-based version if you prefer not to install desktop software, though the desktop app offers enhanced security features.

3

Set Up Your Trezor

Connect your Trezor hardware wallet via USB cable. The setup wizard will guide you through creating a new wallet or recovering an existing one. You'll generate a unique recovery seed - a list of 12 or 24 words that serves as your wallet backup. Write these words down on the provided recovery card and store them in a secure location. Never share your seed with anyone or store it digitally.

4

Move Your Coins

Once your Trezor is configured, you can securely transfer your cryptocurrencies from exchanges or other wallets. Generate a receiving address within Trezor Suite, verify it on your device's screen, and use it to receive funds. Your private keys remain safely stored in the hardware wallet, protected from online threats and malware.

Understanding Hardware Wallet Security

Hardware wallets represent the gold standard in cryptocurrency security. By keeping your private keys in a dedicated, offline device, you create an impenetrable barrier between your assets and potential threats. Trezor's architecture ensures that even when connected to a compromised computer, your private keys never enter an environment where they could be intercepted.

The device features a secure element chip that generates and stores your private keys. When you need to sign a transaction, it happens entirely within the device. Only the signed transaction leaves the hardware wallet, never the keys themselves. This fundamental design principle makes Trezor resistant to virtually all known attack vectors.

Trezor.io/start walks you through creating a recovery seed during initial setup. This seed is a human-readable backup of your entire wallet. Store it carefully - anyone with access to your seed can recreate your wallet. We recommend using the provided recovery cards and storing them in multiple secure locations, such as a safe deposit box.
