Setting up your Trezor hardware wallet is easy and secure with Trezor.io/start. Follow these step-by-step instructions to ensure your cryptocurrency is safely stored.
Open your web browser and go to Trezor.io/start. This official Trezor site will guide you through the wallet setup process. Always ensure you're on the correct website to avoid phishing attempts.
Once on the site, download the Trezor Suite app, which is available for both desktop and mobile. Trezor Suite allows you to manage your cryptocurrencies, monitor transactions, and ensure the security of your funds.
Unbox your Trezor hardware wallet and connect it to your computer or mobile device via USB. The Trezor Suite app will automatically detect your device.
If this is your first time using the device, you’ll need to install the latest firmware. Follow the prompts to securely install the firmware directly from Trezor.io. This ensures your device is up to date with the latest security features.
After the firmware is installed, you can choose to create a new wallet. Write down the recovery seed provided by Trezor. This is a 12-24 word phrase that serves as a backup. Never share this phrase with anyone.
Once your wallet is set up, you’ll be asked to create a PIN. This PIN will add an extra layer of security to your wallet.
