Get Started with Trezor
If you are new to cryptocurrencies and want to start using a hardware wallet like the Trezor, we recommend reading our guide on how to set up a cryptocurrency wallet.
Setting up your Trezor
The Trezor is a hardware wallet that allows you to store your cryptocurrencies offline. To set it up, follow these steps:
1. Connect your Trezor to your computer using the included USB cable.
2. Open the TREZOR app and click on the gear icon in the top-right corner.
3. Click on “Create a new wallets.”
4. Enter a name for your wallet and select “Trezor” as the type of wallet.
5. Click on “Create wallet.”
6. Your Trezor will now generate a new 24-word recovery seed. Write this down and keep it safe! You will need it to restore your wallet if it gets lost or damaged.
7. Click on “Seed words.”
8. Type in your 24-word recovery seed and click on “Save.”
9. Click on “Close wallet.”
10. Double-check that you have written down your 24-word recovery seed and store it safely! If you lose your Trezor, you will need this information to restore your wallet.
Using your Trezor
To use your Trezor, first open the app on your device and sign in. Then, select the menu icon in the top left corner and select "Trezor". You'll see a list of your accounts and devices. Select the account you want to use and confirm your selection.
You'll now be presented with a list of your coins. Find the coin you want to spend and select it. You'll now be presented with a screen where you can enter the amount you want to spend.
To finish spending your coin, select the "Sell" button. You'll be asked to confirm the sale. Once confirmed, the coin will be transferred to your account and the app will close.
Protecting your Trezor
Wallet
There are a few things you can do to protect your Trezor Wallet.
1. Backup your Trezor Wallet
Trezor takes two types of backup: a regular backup and a recovery seed. Make sure to always keep both backups safe and accessible. You can also use a paper wallet to store your Trezor Wallet's private key offline.
2. Keep your Trezor Wallet protected from physical theft
Keep your Trezor Wallet in a safe place where only you have access to it. If you lose your Trezor Wallet, make sure to immediately backup your Trezor Wallet and recovery seed.
3. Use a PIN code to protect your Trezor Wallet
You can also use a PIN code to protect your Trezor Wallet. Whenever you want to use your Trezor Wallet, enter the PIN code into the Trezor Wallet's screen.
Backing up your Trezor
When you first set up your Trezor, you will be asked to create a backup. This is a important step, as if your Trezor is lost or stolen, you can restore your wallet and all of your coins and tokens to a new Trezor.
Recovering your Trezor
Wallet
If you have lost your Trezor wallet, there are a few things you can do to try and recover it.
First, make sure you have backed up your Trezor wallet. You can do this by exporting the private key from your Trezor and saving it in a safe location.
Second, if you have access to your Trezor but don't have the backup, you can try to reset it. To do this, plug in your Trezor and go to trezor.io/reset. Enter your PIN and click Submit. If the reset fails, you can try to factory reset it by entering your PIN and clicking Reset.
