🚀 Trézor.io/Start® | Starting Up Your Device - Trézor®

🔐 Welcome to the World of Unbreakable Crypto Security

Congratulations on choosing Trézor®—the most trusted name in hardware wallets! This guide will walk you through setting up your device step-by-step. Whether you're securing Bitcoin, Ethereum, or other cryptocurrencies, your journey to ultimate protection starts here.


📦 What’s in the Box?

Before you begin, ensure your package includes:
✔ Trézor hardware wallet (Model One or Model T)
✔ USB-C cable (or micro-USB for older models)
✔ Recovery seed cards (for backup)
✔ Lanyard & stickers (optional, but stylish!)

⚠️ Warning: Only purchase from Trézor.io to avoid counterfeit devices.


⚡ Step 1: Connect & Power Up

  1. Plug in your Trézor using the provided USB cable.

  2. Visit Trézor.io/start on your computer or smartphone.

  3. Install Trézor Suite (the official desktop/mobile app).

💡 Pro Tip: Always verify the website’s SSL certificate to avoid phishing scams.


🛡️ Step 2: Initialize Your Device

  1. Choose "Create New Wallet" (unless you’re restoring an old one).

  2. Set a strong PIN (use at least 6 digits).

  3. Your device will generate a 12-24 word recovery seed.

🔥 Critical Security Step: Backup Your Seed

  • ✍️ Write it down on the provided card (never digitally!).

  • 🔒 Store it in a fireproof/waterproof safe (or use a Cryptosteel capsule).

  • ❌ Never share it with anyone—ever.

⚠️ Lose this = Lose your crypto forever.


🔄 Step 3: Confirm Your Seed Phrase

Your Trézor will ask you to re-enter a few random words from your seed. This ensures you’ve recorded it correctly.

✅ Success? Your wallet is now ready!


💰 Step 4: Start Using Trézor Suite

Now, explore the Trézor Suite app to:
✔ Receive crypto (share your public address)
✔ Send transactions (requires device confirmation)
✔ Track portfolio (1000+ supported assets)
✔ Enable extra security (passphrase, U2F, etc.)


🚨 Avoid These Common Mistakes!

❌ Never enter your seed phrase online (Trézor will never ask for it).
❌ Don’t buy a used Trézor (always get a sealed one).
❌ Avoid public computers when setting up your device.


🔥 Advanced Features to Unlock

Once comfortable, explore:
🔹 Hidden Wallets (passphrase-protected accounts)
🔹 Shamir Backup (split your seed into parts—Model T only)
🔹 Password Manager (store logins securely)
