Trezor** Hardware® Wallet - Getting Started : with Trezor
The Secure Hardware Wallet*. An update for Trezor Suite (version 22.9.3) is now ready to install. To download and apply the update, open Trezor Suite...
Here are the key steps to get started with a Trezor hardware wallet:
Unbox your Trezor and make sure the security seal is intact. If it's damaged, contact Trezor support immediately as the device may have been tampered with2.
Download the official Trezor Suite software from trezor.io to manage your wallet. Make sure to get it from the official site to avoid fakes2.
Connect your Trezor to your computer using the included USB cable. Trezor Suite will detect the device and guide you through setup12.
During setup, your Trezor will display a recovery seed - a list of 12 or 24 words. Write this down carefully on the included recovery card and keep it safe. This seed allows you to restore your wallet if needed1.
Set a PIN on your Trezor to secure it. The PIN is entered on the device itself, not your computer1.
Optionally, you can set a passphrase for an extra layer of security and a hidden wallet.
Verify your backup by restoring from the seed using Trezor Suite's "Check Backup" feature. This ensures your seed is correct1.
Send some crypto to your new Trezor wallet address to start using it. Addresses are generated in Trezor Suite and transactions are signed on the device itself for security12.
That covers the basics! Trezor Suite has many advanced features like coin control, Tor support, and more. But these steps will get you up and running with a secure hardware wallet to store your crypto.
