At Trezor, we understand that safeguarding your cryptocurrency is paramount. That's why we have created Trezor.io/start, a streamlined starting point to help you set up your Trezor hardware wallet and ensure your digital assets are protected with state-of-the-art security measures.
Trezor.io/start is your gateway to a seamless setup of your Trezor hardware wallet. Whether you're new to cryptocurrency or an experienced user, this page guides you through each step necessary to activate and secure your Trezor device. Our goal is to make the setup process as simple and intuitive as possible, so you can begin managing your crypto holdings with confidence.
1. Unboxing and Connecting Your Trezor
Start by unboxing your Trezor device and connecting it to your computer using the provided USB cable. Make sure you’re using a secure and private computer to avoid any potential security risks. Once connected, visit Trezor.io/start using your web browser.
2. Initial Setup
When you access Trezor.io/start, you'll be prompted to download and install the Trezor Bridge or Trezor Suite. These applications are essential for communication between your Trezor device and your computer. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete this installation.
3. Creating Your Wallet
After the installation, you’ll need to create a new wallet. The setup wizard will guide you through generating a new recovery seed—a series of words that act as a backup for your wallet. Write down this recovery seed and store it in a safe place. This is crucial for recovering your wallet in case of loss or damage.
4. Setting a PIN
Next, you’ll set up a PIN for your Trezor device. This PIN is a security measure to prevent unauthorized access to your wallet. Choose a unique and secure PIN, and remember it. Your PIN is not recoverable, so ensure you don’t forget it.
5. Verifying and Securing Your Wallet
Once your wallet is set up, verify your recovery seed and PIN through the Trezor.io/start interface. This ensures everything is correctly configured. We also recommend setting up additional security features such as passphrases for enhanced protection.
