Trezor® Hardware® - Wallet | Getting Started with Trezor

Setting up your Trezor hardware wallet is a straightforward process that ensures your cryptocurrencies are stored securely. Here’s a step-by-step guide to get you started:

1. Unbox and Inspect: Begin by unboxing your Trezor hardware wallet. Ensure that the package is sealed and that all components are present. Any signs of tampering could indicate a security risk.

2. Connect to Your Computer: Use the provided USB cable to connect your Trezor device to your computer. Visit the Trezor website (trezor.io/start) to download the Trezor Bridge, a software that enables communication between your device and the computer.

3. Install Trezor Bridge: Follow the on-screen instructions to install the Trezor Bridge. Once installed, the Trezor Wallet interface will open in your web browser.

4. Initialize Your Device: Choose the option to create a new wallet. The device will display a 24-word recovery seed. Write down this seed on the provided recovery card and store it in a safe place. This seed is crucial for recovering your funds if the device is lost or damaged.

5. Set Up a PIN: Next, you will be prompted to set up a PIN for your device. The PIN adds an additional layer of security, ensuring that only you can access your wallet.

6. Backup Your Seed: After setting up your PIN, you’ll be asked to confirm your recovery seed. This step is essential to ensure you have recorded it correctly.

7. Start Using Your Wallet: With your device set up, you can now start managing your cryptocurrencies. The Trezor Wallet interface allows you to send, receive, and monitor your assets securely.

By following these steps, you can ensure that your Trezor hardware wallet is set up correctly and your cryptocurrencies are stored securely.
