👋 Welcome to Trezor Start!
Welcome to the official Trezor.io/start page — the beginning of your secure crypto journey. Here, you’ll set up your Trezor hardware wallet, the world’s most reliable and open-source device for protecting digital assets 💎. Whether you’re new to crypto or a seasoned expert, this guide will help you initialize your device with confidence and clarity.
⚙️ Step 1: Unbox & Connect Your Trezor
Once your Trezor arrives, inspect the box carefully to ensure it hasn’t been tampered with. Connect your Trezor to your computer using the USB cable included in the box. You’ll see a welcome screen that invites you to begin setup. Follow the on-screen prompts on Trezor Suite — the official desktop app for managing your crypto portfolio.
- Plug your Trezor into your computer.
- Visit Trezor.io/start to download Trezor Suite.
- Follow the simple on-screen instructions to begin initialization.
🔒 Step 2: Install Firmware
Firmware is the secure software that powers your Trezor. The first time you connect your device, you’ll be prompted to install the latest official firmware. This ensures your wallet operates safely and has the newest security improvements.
Once installation completes, your device will restart and display the Trezor logo. You’re now one step closer to total crypto independence!
🧩 Step 3: Create or Recover a Wallet
After firmware installation, you’ll be asked to either create a new wallet or recover an existing one. If this is your first Trezor device, choose “Create new wallet.” If you’re restoring from another device, select “Recover wallet” and enter your 12, 18, or 24-word recovery seed.
- Choose your wallet type (Standard or Hidden).
- Confirm each action directly on your Trezor screen 🖥️.
- Write down your recovery seed in order, on the card provided.
Treat your recovery seed as sacred — it’s the only backup of your crypto keys. Never take photos or store it online. Keep it in a secure, offline location 🏠.
🔑 Step 4: Set Up PIN & Security Options
Next, you’ll create a PIN to protect your device from unauthorized access. Enter it directly on the Trezor’s screen to prevent keyloggers or malware from stealing your credentials.
Trezor also supports advanced security options like Passphrase protection and Shamir Backup, giving you even more control over your assets.
💰 Step 5: Access Trezor Suite
Once setup is complete, open Trezor Suite to explore your crypto dashboard. You can view balances, send and receive transactions, manage tokens, and monitor your portfolio in real time.
- Supports Bitcoin, Ethereum, and 1000+ other coins 🪙
- Built-in exchange integrations
- Privacy and coin control tools
The intuitive interface ensures that even beginners can navigate easily, while advanced users benefit from robust privacy and power-user features.
