Your complete guide to securing your cryptocurrency assets

Welcome to Trezor Setup

This guide will help you set up your new Trezor hardware wallet. Follow these steps carefully to ensure your cryptocurrencies are securely stored.

Trezor devices provide the highest level of security for your Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other digital assets.

Getting Started with Your Trezor

1

Unbox Your Device

Carefully unbox your Trezor and check that all components are present: the device, USB cable, recovery seed cards, and lanyard.

2

Connect to Computer

Connect your Trezor to your computer using the provided USB cable. Ensure you're using a secure computer free from malware.

3

Install Trezor Bridge

Download and install Trezor Bridge, which enables communication between your Trezor device and the web browser.

4

Initialize Device

Follow the on-screen instructions to initialize your device. You'll be prompted to install the latest firmware.

5

Create Backup

Write down your recovery seed phrase on the provided cards. This is the most important step - store it securely offline.

6

Set PIN

Create a secure PIN to protect your device from unauthorized access. The PIN is entered using the Trezor's display.

Security Warning

Never share your recovery seed with anyone. Trezor will never ask for this information. Always purchase your device directly from the official Trezor shop to avoid tampered devices.
