A Trezor hardware wallet is one of the most secure ways to store your cryptocurrencies. By using Trezor.io/start, you ensure you’re following the official setup process. Here’s how to get started.
First, unbox your Trezor device. Verify that the packaging is intact and the holographic seal hasn’t been tampered with. This ensures your device is genuine and hasn’t been compromised.
Open your computer’s browser and go to trezor.io/start. This official page will guide you through downloading Trezor Suite, the app you’ll use to manage your crypto assets.
Click the link for your operating system (Windows, macOS, or Linux) and install Trezor Suite. This desktop app connects your hardware wallet securely. Always download it directly from the official site to avoid fake software.
Plug your Trezor device into your computer using the provided USB cable. Trezor Suite will detect your device and prompt you to either set up a new wallet or recover an existing one.
If your device is new, it won’t have firmware installed yet. Trezor Suite will automatically ask you to install the latest firmware. This is crucial for your wallet’s security. Follow the on-screen instructions carefully.
Once the firmware is installed, you can create a new wallet. Trezor will generate a unique recovery seed (12 to 24 words). Write this seed down on the provided recovery card and store it somewhere safe and offline — never share it online or store it digitally.
Next, you’ll set a secure PIN code for your Trezor device. This protects your wallet from unauthorized access if the device is lost or stolen.
Now your Trezor is ready to receive, send, and manage crypto assets. Use Trezor Suite to monitor your balances, make transactions, and update firmware as needed.
By following these steps, you ensure your crypto assets remain safe with Trezor’s industry-leading security.
