To set up your Trezor hardware wallet for the first time, you'll need to follow these steps:
Unbox Your Trezor Device: Remove your Trezor hardware wallet from its packaging.
Connect Your Trezor to a Computer or Mobile Device: Use the provided USB cable to connect your Trezor device to a computer or mobile device. Ensure that the connection is secure.
Go to Trezor.io/Start: Open your web browser and navigate to Trezor's setup page by entering the URL Trezor.io/Start. This page will guide you through the setup process.
Install Trezor Bridge (if necessary): Depending on your browser and operating system, you may need to install Trezor Bridge, a software component that facilitates communication between your Trezor device and your computer or mobile device. Follow the on-screen instructions to install it if prompted.
Choose Your Device: If you have multiple Trezor devices connected, select the one you want to set up.
Create a New Wallet or Recover Existing: If you're setting up your Trezor for the first time, choose the option to create a new wallet. If you're recovering an existing wallet, select the recovery option and follow the instructions.
Set Up a PIN: Follow the on-screen instructions to set up a PIN for your Trezor device. This PIN will be required every time you connect your Trezor to authorize transactions.
Write Down Your Recovery Seed: Your Trezor device will generate a recovery seed, typically consisting of 12 or 24 words. Write down these words in the correct order and keep them in a safe place. This recovery seed is crucial for recovering your funds in case your device is lost, stolen, or damaged.
Confirm Your Recovery Seed: After writing down your recovery seed, the device will prompt you to confirm it by entering specific words from the seed. This step ensures that you've correctly recorded your recovery seed.
Complete Setup: Once you've completed all the steps, your Trezor hardware wallet will be set up and ready to use.
Remember to keep your recovery seed safe and never share it with anyone. Additionally, ensure that you're on the official Trezor website (Trezor.io) and that you're following the correct setup instructions to avoid phishing attempts.
