🔐 Your Recovery Seed = Your Crypto

Trezor never stores your keys. The only way to recover your wallet is with your seed phrase. Losing it means losing your funds. Sharing it means risking theft.

Tips:

  • Never take a picture of your seed 📸❌
  • Write it down on paper and store it offline 📄🔒
  • Consider using a metal backup for long-term storage 🧯

💻 After Setup: Install Trézor Suite

Trézor.io/Start guides you to download the Trézor Suite app, available for Windows, macOS, and Linux. This app is your control center for:

  • Viewing your portfolio 📊
  • Sending and receiving crypto 🔁
  • Swapping assets securely 💱
  • Managing your privacy with tools like Tor 🌐

🔎 Safety First

Always double-check you’re on the correct site:
https://trezor.io/start

Avoid downloading software or firmware from anywhere else. Be skeptical of:

  • Fake “support” asking for seed phrases
  • Browser popups or malicious ads
  • Phishing emails pretending to be Trezor

Reminder: Trezor will never ask for your recovery seed online.


🌍 Supported Cryptocurrencies

After setup, your Trezor can manage thousands of coins and tokens:

  • Bitcoin (BTC)
  • Ethereum (ETH) + all ERC-20 tokens
  • Litecoin (LTC)
  • Cardano (ADA)

Regular updates mean even more tokens added over time.
