Welcome to Secure Crypto Ownership

Your Trezor device is a powerful hardware wallet designed to safeguard your cryptocurrency assets by keeping your private keys offline. Proper setup is essential to maximize security and usability.

Step 1: Unboxing and Verification

• Confirm the packaging is intact, tamper-free, and original.
• Check contents: Trezor device, USB cable, recovery seed card, and quick-start leaflet.
• Only use the device if packaging and device appear authentic.

Step 2: Connect Your Device and Initialize

• Attach your Trezor device to your computer via the USB cable.
• Open your web browser and go to the recommended Trezor setup interface. (No official links included here)
• Follow guided prompts to install the latest firmware if needed.
• Create your new wallet or recover an existing one with your secret recovery phrase.

Step 3: Secure Your Device

• Set a PIN using your device's on-screen keypad to protect against unauthorized access.
• Write down your 24-word recovery seed securely – this is your master key to wallet recovery.
• Verify your recovery phrase as requested to confirm accuracy and security.
• Consider setting up an additional passphrase for extra wallet protection.

Managing Your Cryptocurrencies

Use companion software to add cryptocurrency accounts, send and receive funds, and monitor transactions. Always confirm transaction details on your device before approving.

Security Best Practices

• Keep your recovery seed offline and never share it.
