Hardware Setup Guide

Follow these simple steps to set up your Trezor hardware wallet and secure your crypto assets in minutes

Unbox Your Trezor

Carefully unpack your Trezor device and verify all security seals are intact. Check that the package includes the device, USB cable, recovery seed cards, and user manual. Never use a device if the packaging appears tampered with.

1

Install Trezor Suite

Download the official Trezor Suite application from trezor.io. This software serves as your command center for managing cryptocurrencies. Available for Windows, macOS, Linux, and as a web application for maximum flexibility.

2

Connect Device

Use the provided USB cable to connect your Trezor to your computer. The device will power on automatically. Follow the on-screen instructions in Trezor Suite to begin the initialization process and install the latest firmware.

3

Create Recovery Seed

Your Trezor will generate a unique 12 or 24-word recovery seed. Write these words on the provided recovery card in the exact order shown. Never take photos or store digitally. This seed is the master key to your funds.

4

Set PIN Code

Create a secure PIN code (4-9 digits) to protect your device from unauthorized access. The PIN is entered using a randomized keypad displayed on your computer, while the numbers appear on the Trezor screen for maximum security.

5

Verify & Start Using

Complete the setup by verifying your recovery seed. Your Trezor is now ready to receive, store, and send cryptocurrencies. Add accounts for Bitcoin, Ethereum, and thousands of other supported cryptocurrencies through Trezor Suite.

SECURITY FEATURES

Uncompromising Protection

Advanced security features designed to keep your digital assets safe from every known threat vector

Cold Storage Security

Your private keys never leave the device and are never exposed to the internet. Trezor operates as a completely isolated environment, immune to remote hacking attempts, malware, and viruses on your computer.

Advanced Encryption

Military-grade encryption protocols protect your assets using AES-256 encryption and secure chip technology. Every transaction requires physical confirmation on the device, preventing unauthorized transfers even if your computer is compromised.

Screen Verification

Built-in OLED display lets you verify every transaction detail before approval. What you see on the Trezor screen is exactly what gets signed - protecting you from sophisticated man-in-the-middle attacks and display spoofing.

Passphrase Protection

Add an extra layer of security with optional passphrase encryption. This creates unlimited hidden wallets, protecting you against physical theft. Even if someone accesses your recovery seed, they cannot access your funds without the passphrase.

Firmware Verification

Cryptographic signature verification ensures only authentic Trezor firmware runs on your device. Open-source code allows the community to audit security. Regular updates patch vulnerabilities and add support for new cryptocurrencies and features.

Multi-Currency Support

Secure storage for thousands of cryptocurrencies and tokens including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, and all ERC-20 tokens. One device manages your entire portfolio with institutional-grade security for every asset.

Backup & Recovery

Your 24-word recovery seed serves as a complete backup of all your accounts and funds. Store it securely offline, and you can recover everything even if your Trezor is lost, stolen, or damaged. The seed works with any Trezor device.

Tamper-Evident Design

Holographic seals and secure packaging make it immediately obvious if your device has been tampered with during shipping. Ultrasonic welding and secure element chips provide physical protection against sophisticated hardware attacks and modifications.

Find answers to common questions about Trezor hardware wallets and cryptocurrency security

A hardware wallet is a physical device that stores your cryptocurrency private keys offline. Unlike software wallets that keep keys on internet-connected devices, Trezor isolates your keys in a secure chip. When you make a transaction, the Trezor signs it internally and sends only the signed transaction to your computer - your private keys never leave the device.

When you store cryptocurrency on an exchange, you don't actually control your funds - the exchange does. With Trezor, you have complete control and ownership of your private keys. This means your crypto cannot be frozen, seized, or lost due to exchange hacks or bankruptcy. Trezor follows the principle: 'Not your keys, not your coins.'

If your Trezor is lost or damaged, you can recover all your funds using the 24-word recovery seed you wrote down during setup. Simply purchase a new Trezor, enter your recovery seed, and all your accounts and cryptocurrencies will be restored. This is why keeping your recovery seed safe and private is crucial.

Trezor has never been successfully hacked in its 10+ year history. The device uses multiple layers of security including offline storage, PIN protection, encryption, and secure chip technology. Even if someone steals your physical device, they cannot access your funds without your PIN. After multiple wrong attempts, the device wipes itself.

Trezor supports thousands of cryptocurrencies including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Bitcoin Cash, and all ERC-20 tokens. The device is regularly updated to add support for new coins and tokens. You can manage multiple cryptocurrency accounts simultaneously through the Trezor Suite application.

No, you only need to connect your Trezor when sending cryptocurrency or checking balances. Your funds are stored on the blockchain, not on the device itself. The Trezor simply holds the private keys needed to access and authorize transactions. You can disconnect it and store it safely when not in use.

Absolutely. Your recovery seed is generated directly on your Trezor device using a secure random number generator. It never appears on your computer screen and is never transmitted to Trezor or any third party. Only you see the words on your Trezor's screen. Even Trezor company cannot access your funds or recovery seed.

Yes! Trezor works with Android phones via USB OTG cable and with iPhones using the Trezor Suite mobile app. You can send, receive, and manage your cryptocurrencies on the go while maintaining the same level of security as desktop use. The mobile experience is optimized for touch interfaces.
