What is Trezor?

Trezor is a leading provider of hardware wallets designed to safeguard your cryptocurrency holdings. Unlike software wallets that are vulnerable to hacking and malware, Trezor hardware wallets store your private keys offline, ensuring an extra layer of protection.

Getting Started

To begin, visit Trezor.io/start. This official page is your gateway to setting up your Trezor device. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you through the process:

  1. Unbox Your Trezor Device: Inside the box, you'll find your Trezor hardware wallet, a USB cable, and a quick start guide. Ensure you keep the packaging and manual for future reference.

  2. Connect Your Device: Plug the USB cable into your Trezor device and connect it to your computer. Visit Trezor.io/start to download the Trezor Bridge, which allows your Trezor wallet to communicate with your computer. This step is essential for the initial setup.

  3. Install Trezor Bridge: Follow the instructions on the Trezor.io/start page to download and install Trezor Bridge. This software ensures a secure connection between your Trezor device and the Trezor web application.

  4. Set Up Your Wallet: Once Trezor Bridge is installed, you’ll be directed to the Trezor web application. Here, you’ll create a new wallet or recover an existing one using your recovery seed. It’s crucial to store your recovery seed in a safe place, as it’s the only way to recover your wallet if your device is lost or damaged.

  5. Secure Your Device: Follow the prompts to set up a PIN code. This code adds an extra layer of security, ensuring that even if someone gains physical access to your device, they cannot access your funds without the PIN.

  6. Add Funds: After setting up your wallet, you can start adding cryptocurrencies. Simply navigate to the 'Receive' tab on the Trezor web application and use the provided address to transfer funds from an exchange or another wallet.
