This short presentation walks you through setting up your Trezor hardware wallet, protecting your recovery seed, and connecting to Trezor Suite. It’s designed as a single-page, printer-friendly guide and a shareable HTML slide for teams, meetups, or onboarding new users.
Inspect the tamper-evident seal. If packaging looks compromised, contact Trezor support immediately.
Hardware tampering is rare but critical — physical integrity ensures firmware and seed confidentiality.
Visit the official Trezor onboarding page and launch Trezor Suite. Follow on-screen instructions to initialize your device.
Trezor devices ship without active firmware. Install the firmware using the Suite, then choose a strong device PIN when prompted. Never share the PIN — it’s local to the device.
Use Trezor Suite to add coin support or third‑party integrations. For many blockchains you’ll be directed to recommended interfaces from the Suite.
Before moving larger funds, send a small amount to confirm addresses and transaction signing work as expected. Verify address strings on the device screen before confirming.
Trezor protects your private keys offline. Be cautious of phishing sites, fake support, and unsolicited messages. Trezor will never ask for your recovery seed.
If your device is lost, your funds are still safe as long as the recovery seed is secure. Order a new Trezor and recover using your seed.
If you suspect the seed was exposed, move funds to a new wallet generated from a fresh device and seed.
Setting up a Trezor is the cornerstone of self-custody. Take your time during setup, protect the recovery seed, and enable optional features like passphrases if you need extra protection. For step‑by‑step visuals, use the links above and the Trezor Suite walkthrough.
