Getting Started — Quick Guide

Welcome to Trezor™ Start — your first step toward owning and protecting your cryptocurrency with confidence. Trezor® brings hardware wallet security into the palm of your hand. In this quick guide we cover unboxing, initial setup, backup recommendations, and safe habits that keep your keys private. Start by verifying your device’s tamper-evident seal, then connect to Trezor.io/start and follow the step-by-step setup wizard. Create a strong PIN, write down the recovery seed on the included card, and store it offline in a secure place. Avoid screenshots, cloud backups, or sharing your seed with anyone. For routine use, pair Trezor with supported wallets and enable passphrase protection for added privacy. Remember to update firmware only from official sources and never via links sent by strangers. If you suspect device compromise, move funds to a new wallet using a new seed. Trezor’s open-source software and cryptographic design minimize trust assumptions, but safety starts with user behavior. Whether you’re safeguarding a small stash or long-term cold storage, the principles are the same: verify, backup, and keep secrets offline. Visit Trezor.io/start for illustrated steps, tutorials, and support resources to get secure and stay secure. Join the community forums for tips and firmware release alerts.
