Welcome to the official Trezor.io/Start® setup guide. Trezor® is a pioneer in hardware cryptocurrency wallets, providing unmatched protection for your Bitcoin, Ethereum, and hundreds of other assets. This guide will walk you through everything you need to start using your Trezor® device securely.

2. What You’ll Need

Before setting up your device, ensure you have:

• Your Trezor Model T or Trezor One
• A USB cable to connect your device
• A stable internet connection
• Paper and pen for your recovery seed

3. Getting Started

Plug your Trezor® device into your computer using the provided USB cable. Open your web browser and visit Trezor.io/Start. The Trezor® web interface will automatically detect your device and guide you through installation.

You’ll be prompted to install the latest firmware. This ensures your device runs the most secure and up-to-date version.

4. Setting Up Your Wallet

After updating the firmware, you can create a new wallet or recover an existing one using your 24-word recovery seed. It’s crucial to write these words down carefully and never share them with anyone. Trezor® will never ask for your recovery seed online or via email.

Once your wallet is created, you can begin managing your digital assets, checking balances, and sending or receiving cryptocurrencies securely.

5. Security Best Practices

Trezor® prioritizes your safety. Always:

• Keep your recovery seed offline and stored in a safe place.
• Never connect your device to unknown or suspicious computers.
• Use the PIN and passphrase features for added security.
• Regularly update your firmware via the official Trezor® website.
