Why use a hardware wallet?
Hardware wallets provide a dedicated, tamper-resistant environment for generating and storing private keys. Unlike software wallets that may expose keys to your computer or the cloud, a hardware wallet signs transactions internally — you only confirm them using the device's display and buttons. This physical confirmation step thwarts remote manipulation by malware.
Key advantages:
- Isolation of private keys from connected computers
- On-device verification of addresses and transaction amounts
- Recovery using a human-readable recovery seed stored offline
- Compatibility with a wide ecosystem of wallets and services
Secure setup — essential steps
Follow these steps to set up Trezor Suite and your hardware device safely:
- Purchase from trezor.io or an authorized reseller to reduce tampering risk.
- Download Suite only from the Downloads page and verify checksums to confirm authenticity.
- Connect your Trezor, run Suite, and let it perform the initial firmware check. Only install firmware signed by Trezor.
- Generate a recovery seed on-device and write it down on paper or store it on a metal backup. Never copy it to a phone or cloud.
- Confirm the seed using the device prompts. If the device asks for unexpected inputs, contact Support.
- Optionally enable a passphrase for hidden wallets — but record the passphrase securely as losing it means losing access to funds.
For enterprise or multisig setups, review the Business & API documentation.
Daily use & maintenance
Everyday interactions should be habitual and cautious. Use this checklist before any transaction:
- Open Suite from the official site and connect your device.
- Verify the transaction details on the device screen before approving.
- Avoid signing transactions when connected to unknown networks or public Wi‑Fi.
- Limit approvals for token contracts; revoke unnecessary allowances with on‑chain tools.
- Regularly update firmware and the Suite app from official channels.
Maintenance tips:
- Store your seed in multiple secure physical locations.
- Use metal backups to protect against fire or water damage.
- Schedule periodic audits of your holdings and transaction history.
- Consider using a dedicated machine for signing high-value transactions.
