Complete Trezor Start Guide — Secure your crypto with Trezor

Welcome to the complete Trezor.io/start walkthrough — your easy step-by-step guide to initialize a Trezor hardware wallet, create a recovery seed, update firmware, and manage accounts securely. This guide helps beginners and advanced users perform a safe Trezor setup, avoid phishing, and follow best practices to protect Bitcoin, Ethereum and hundreds of cryptocurrencies.

Why choose a Trezor hardware wallet?

Trezor provides offline private key storage, open-source firmware, robust PIN protection, and a simple recovery process. By keeping private keys on the device, the Trezor hardware wallet reduces exposure to online attacks. Trezor supports many coins, integrates with popular wallets and exchanges, and allows you to verify transactions on-device.

Quick Start — Unbox and Prepare

1
Unbox & verify
Check tamper-evident seals and packaging before connecting your Trezor device.
2
Visit official start page
Open https://Trezor.io/start directly in a modern browser; do not click unknown links.
3
Connect & create
Connect with USB, launch Trezor Suite or Bridge, select 'Create new device', and set a strong PIN.
4
Backup your recovery seed
Write the recovery seed on the supplied card or a metal backup and store offline in multiple secure locations.
5
Firmware & finalize
Update firmware through Trezor Suite; confirm updates on the device display.

Supported coins and wallet integrations

Trezor supports Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Bitcoin Cash, many ERC-20 tokens and a wide range of altcoins. Use Trezor Suite for direct support or integrate with compatible third-party wallets for extended features. Always check the official compatibility list on Trezor.io/start for supported assets and the latest updates.

Recovery & backup — critical

Your recovery seed is the single most important backup. If the device is lost or damaged, the seed restores access to funds. Use only official Trezor Suite recovery tools or verified devices. Consider a metal backup for durability. Store copies in secure, geographically separated locations and never enter seeds online.

Security best practices

  • Download Trezor Suite or Bridge only from Trezor.io/start.
  • Never share your recovery seed; never store it digitally.
  • Use a strong, unique PIN and enable passphrase protection for hidden wallets.
  • Verify addresses and transactions on the device screen.
  • Keep firmware up to date and verify update prompts on-device.
  • Beware of phishing links, emails, and fake sites.

Troubleshooting & support

Common problems include device recognition, browser compatibility, and firmware installs. If your device is not recognized, install Trezor Bridge or use Trezor Suite, try different cables/ports, and update your browser. If issues persist, follow official support links on Trezor.io/start for verified help.
