Welcome to Trezor.io/Start — your official gateway to setting up your Trezor hardware wallet. Whether you’re securing Bitcoin, Ethereum, or any other digital asset, Trezor provides a powerful blend of simplicity, privacy, and ultimate protection through its secure offline storage system.
To begin your journey, visit Trezor.io/Start. This is the only legitimate and official platform for setting up your device. Avoid third-party websites to ensure maximum security and authenticity.
On the Trezor.io/Start page, you’ll be guided to download the Trezor Suite — a comprehensive desktop and web-based app that enables you to manage your crypto portfolio securely. The app connects directly with your device and allows you to send, receive, and monitor your assets while maintaining offline protection.
Plug in your Trezor device using the original USB cable provided. Once connected, the Trezor Suite will automatically detect your hardware and begin the initialization process. You’ll see prompts to create a new wallet or recover an existing one using your recovery seed phrase.
If you’re setting up for the first time, select “Create new wallet.” The Trezor.io/Start interface will walk you through generating your recovery seed — a 12, 18, or 24-word backup phrase. This phrase is the ultimate key to your wallet, so it must be written down on paper and stored safely offline. Never take a screenshot or share it online.
For those restoring an old wallet, choose the “Recover wallet” option and carefully enter your recovery seed using the secure on-screen keyboard. Trezor’s design ensures that even during this process, your private keys never leave the device — maintaining total security.
To enable smooth communication between your browser and device, Trezor.io/Start may prompt you to install Trezor Bridge. This lightweight software ensures that your computer recognizes the Trezor hardware wallet seamlessly, allowing for secure operations within Trezor Suite.
Once setup is complete, explore the Trezor Suite dashboard to manage your crypto portfolio. You can send, receive, and track your assets directly from the suite with real-time price updates. Every transaction requires confirmation on your physical device, keeping your digital assets safe even if your computer is compromised.
Trezor.io/Start ensures the safest offline cold storage for Bitcoin, Ethereum, and hundreds of other cryptocurrencies. The secure element chip, combined with open-source firmware and PIN protection, fortifies your funds against hacking and phishing attempts.
Setting up your wallet through Trezor.io/Start ensures that your crypto assets remain safe, private, and entirely under your control. Whether you’re new to crypto or an experienced investor, Trezor provides a robust defense system against modern cyber threats while keeping usability simple and intuitive.
