Trezor.io/Start® — Starting Up Your Device

Welcome to the official starting guide experience for your Trezor hardware wallet. This long‑form presentation page walks you through every step of setup, security principles, and best practices — designed with clarity, trust, and a mirrored dark background for focused reading.

Overview

Why Start at Trezor.io/Start

Trezor.io/Start is the official onboarding point for initializing your hardware wallet. It ensures that your device firmware, wallet interface, and cryptographic processes are authentic and untampered. This page design emphasizes long‑form readability, guiding users step‑by‑step without distractions.

Device Setup

1. Connect Your Device

Plug your Trezor device into your computer using the supplied USB cable. Ensure a secure environment and avoid public or shared computers.

2. Install Official Software

Download and install the official wallet interface. This ensures verified communication between your browser and your hardware wallet.

3. Initialize Wallet

Follow on‑screen instructions to generate private keys securely inside the device, never exposing them to the internet.

Security Model

Trezor devices operate on a zero‑trust principle. Your private keys never leave the device, and every transaction must be physically confirmed. The mirrored background design reinforces symmetry and trust, visually reflecting the idea of verification on both device and screen.

Recovery & Backup

During setup, you will receive a recovery seed. This seed is the single most important element of wallet ownership. Store it offline, never digitally, and never share it. Anyone with access to the recovery seed can control your funds.

Best Practices

Always verify URLs, keep firmware updated, and confirm transaction details directly on your Trezor screen. The long presentation format of this page is designed to slow users down — encouraging thoughtful, informed actions rather than rushed decisions.
