Trezor® Wallet, developed by SatoshiLabs, is the world's first and most trusted hardware cryptocurrency wallet. Unlike software wallets, a Trezor® device stores your private keys offline, providing an unparalleled level of security against online threats, hackers, and malware. It acts as a secure vault for your digital assets, allowing you to manage your cryptocurrencies without exposing your sensitive information to internet-connected devices.
The wallet supports a vast array of cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, and countless ERC-20 tokens. Its intuitive interface, combined with military-grade security, makes it the preferred choice for both beginners and seasoned crypto enthusiasts.
The setup process for your new Trezor® device is straightforward. Begin by navigating to the official trezor.io/start page. This portal provides step-by-step instructions tailored to your specific Trezor® model (Trezor One or Trezor Model T).
To access your cryptocurrency, you perform a Trezor login through the Trezor Suite application. Trezor Suite is the official desktop and web interface that allows you to manage your portfolio, send and receive transactions, and explore advanced features like coin control and Tor routing.
To begin, you will need to complete the Trezor Suite download from the official Trezor website. Alternatively, you can use the web version without installation. For older devices or specific browser support, you might need to install Trezor Bridge, a background service that enables communication between your Trezor® device and the web browser.
The process is seamless: open Trezor Suite, connect your device, enter your PIN directly on the Trezor® device's screen, and you're granted secure access to your portfolio. This ensures your private keys never leave the device, making the Trezor Bridge login process incredibly secure.
Is Trezor® Wallet compatible with my operating system?
Yes, the Trezor Suite app is compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux. The web version also works on Chrome and Firefox browsers.
What happens if I lose my Trezor® device?
Your funds are safe as long as you have your recovery seed. Simply acquire a new Trezor® (or any compatible wallet), and use your recovery seed to restore all your accounts and transactions.
Do I need to install Trezor Bridge?
The newer Trezor Suite application generally does not require Trezor Bridge. However, if you are using the legacy wallet interface or certain browser extensions, you may need to install Trezor Bridge to facilitate communication.
Can I use the Trezor Suite app on my mobile phone?
Currently, Trezor Suite is a desktop application. However, you can manage your Trezor® on the go by connecting it to an Android device with a USB OTG cable and using the Trezor Suite web interface on your mobile browser.
Is there a fee for using Trezor Suite?
No. Trezor Suite is free software provided by SatoshiLabs. The only fees you pay are standard network transaction fees when sending cryptocurrency, which are determined by the respective blockchain networks, not by Trezor®.
