What is Trezor® Wallet?

Trezor® Wallet represents the gold standard in cryptocurrency security. Developed by SatoshiLabs, Trezor® was the world's first hardware wallet, providing unparalleled protection for digital assets by keeping private keys completely isolated from internet-connected devices.

Unlike software wallets or exchange accounts, Trezor® devices store your cryptographic keys in a secure hardware environment, ensuring that even if your computer is compromised, your funds remain safe. The Trezor® ecosystem includes both the Trezor Model T (touchscreen interface) and Trezor Model One (button-based interface), both working seamlessly with the Trezor Suite application.

Getting Started with Trezor.io/Start

1 Unbox and Inspect

Begin your journey at trezor.io/start. Carefully unbox your Trezor® device, ensuring the holographic seal is intact—this verifies your device hasn't been tampered with during shipping.

2 Download Trezor Suite

The portal will guide you to download Trezor Suite, the official desktop application for managing your Trezor® device. You can also access the web-based version or download the Trezor Suite app for mobile devices.

3 Device Setup

Connect your Trezor® to your computer via USB. Trezor Suite will guide you through firmware installation, device initialization, and the creation of your unique recovery seed—the most critical security element.

Security First: Your recovery seed is the master key to your cryptocurrency. Write it on the provided recovery card and store it securely offline. Never digitize this information or share it with anyone.

4 Understanding Trezor Login

The Trezor login process is what sets hardware wallets apart. Instead of traditional passwords, you authenticate by physically connecting your device. For certain advanced features, Trezor Bridge may be required—this background service facilitates communication between your Trezor® device and web browsers.
