Everything you need to know about setting up and using your Trezor hardware wallet.
Trezor is a physical device that stores your cryptocurrency private keys offline. Unlike software wallets, your keys never touch the internet, making it virtually impossible for hackers to steal your funds remotely. It's the safest way to store Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other digital assets.
The complete setup process takes approximately 15-20 minutes. This includes unboxing, installing Trezor Suite, connecting your device, creating a PIN, backing up your recovery seed, and verifying everything works correctly.
If you lose your Trezor, your funds are safe as long as you have your recovery seed (the 12 or 24-word phrase you wrote down during setup). You can purchase a new Trezor or compatible device and restore your entire wallet using this seed phrase.
Trezor devices are designed with multiple layers of security to prevent hacking. Your private keys never leave the device, the firmware is open-source and regularly audited, and the device includes PIN protection with auto-wipe functionality. No successful remote hacks have been reported.
Trezor supports over 1,000 cryptocurrencies including Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Litecoin (LTC), Cardano (ADA), and all major ERC-20 tokens. New coins are regularly added through firmware updates.
No, you only need to connect your Trezor when you want to send cryptocurrency or sign transactions. For receiving funds, you can generate addresses in Trezor Suite without having the device connected. Your funds are always safe on the blockchain, not on the device itself.
