🔐 How to Set Up Your Trezor® Hardware Wallet (Step-by-Step Tutorial)
✅ What You’ll Need:
- A Trezor® hardware wallet (Model One or Model T)
- A computer or smartphone with internet access
- A USB cable (comes with the device)
- A pen and the recovery seed card (included in the box)
⚙️ Step 1: Visit Trezor.io/Start
Plug in your Trezor device to your computer using the USB cable. Open a browser and go to https://trezor.io/start
. Choose your Trezor model (One or T) and download the official Trezor Suite app for your operating system (Windows, macOS, or Linux).
Install and open Trezor Suite, then follow the on-screen instructions to connect your device.
🔑 Step 2: Generate Your Recovery Seed
After connecting, your Trezor will prompt you to create a new wallet. Choose “Create new wallet.” The device will now display a recovery seed (either 12 or 24 words, depending on the model).
Important:
- Write down the words in exact order on the provided recovery card.
- Never take a photo or store it digitally.
- This seed is your only backup if your Trezor is lost or damaged.
Once confirmed, your wallet is ready to use! You can now receive, send, and manage cryptocurrencies securely through the Trezor Suite.
