Recovery Guide →Welcome to the world of secure cryptocurrency storage. Your Trezor hardware wallet represents the gold standard in digital asset protection, providing offline storage that keeps your private keys away from internet-connected devices and potential threats.
Before beginning the setup process, ensure you have your Trezor device, the included USB cable, and the recovery seed cards. Find a quiet, private space where you won't be interrupted, as the initial setup requires your full attention to maintain security best practices.
The initialization process begins when you first connect your Trezor to a computer running Trezor Suite. The device will prompt you to choose between creating a new wallet or recovering an existing one. For first-time users, select "Create new wallet" to generate a fresh set of cryptographic keys.
During PIN creation, choose a combination that's memorable but not easily guessed. Your PIN protects the device from unauthorized physical access. The device will ask you to enter the PIN using the randomized number layout displayed on screen, adding an extra layer of security against keyloggers.
The recovery seed generation is the most critical step of the setup process. Your Trezor will display 24 words in a specific order – this is your master backup that can restore access to all your cryptocurrency accounts. Write these words exactly as shown on the provided recovery cards, double-checking each word for accuracy.
After writing down your recovery seed, the device will test your backup by asking you to enter specific words from your seed phrase. This verification step ensures you've correctly recorded your backup information before completing the setup.
Once initialization is complete, you can begin adding cryptocurrency accounts through Trezor Suite. The interface supports Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, and hundreds of other digital assets. Each cryptocurrency type requires its own account setup, but the process is streamlined through the intuitive interface.
For enhanced security, consider enabling additional features like passphrase protection, which creates hidden wallets that provide plausible deniability. Regular firmware updates ensure your device has the latest security patches and cryptocurrency support.
