Why Millions Choose Trezor
From beginners to institutional holders, Trezor delivers security and usability that no software wallet can match.
Cold Storage Security
Your private keys are generated and stored entirely offline. Even if your computer is compromised, your funds stay safe inside the Trezor device.
Self-Custody Ownership
You and only you control your crypto. No exchange, no third party, no middleman. If you have your seed phrase, you always have access to your funds.
9,000+ Supported Assets
Manage Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Cardano, and thousands of ERC-20 tokens and altcoins — all from one beautiful, unified interface.
Trezor Suite App
An all-in-one desktop and web app for managing your portfolio, buying, selling, exchanging, and tracking your assets with full privacy controls.
Passphrase Protection
Add an extra layer of security with an optional passphrase that creates a hidden wallet — protecting against even physical device theft.
Transaction Verification
Every outgoing transaction must be physically confirmed on your Trezor device screen — making remote attacks and malware completely ineffective.
Trezor vs. Everything Else
Hardware wallets beat software wallets. Trezor beats other hardware wallets. Here's why.
Air-Gapped Private Keys
Unlike hot wallets or exchange accounts, Trezor's keys never touch the internet. Hackers need physical access to your device — and your PIN — to do anything.
100% Open Source
Trezor's hardware and software are entirely open source. Security researchers worldwide continuously audit the code, making it the most transparent wallet in existence.
Exchange-Proof
FTX, Mt. Gox, Celsius — exchange collapses have cost investors billions. With Trezor, your coins are never on an exchange. They're yours, always.
Firmware Upgradeable
Trezor releases regular security updates that you can verify and install yourself. Your device gets better over time, without replacing hardware.
Universal Compatibility
Works with MetaMask, MyEtherWallet, Electrum, Exodus, and 1,000+ apps. Use Trezor as a secure signing layer across the entire DeFi and Web3 ecosystem.
Full Recovery Anytime
Lost or damaged your device? Recover your entire wallet instantly on any Trezor (or compatible wallet) using your 12- or 24-word recovery seed phrase.
Get Started in 4 Simple Steps
Setting up your Trezor at Trezor.io/start takes less than 15 minutes. Here's exactly what to expect.
Unbox Your Device
Verify the holographic seal is intact. Connect your Trezor to your computer via USB cable.
Visit Trezor.io/start
Go to the official Trezor.io/start page in your browser to begin the guided setup process.
Install Trezor Suite
Download and install Trezor Suite for desktop or use the web version. Install the latest firmware.
Backup Your Seed
Create a new wallet. Write down your 12 or 24-word recovery seed on paper and store it safely offline.
Built From the Ground Up for Security
Every aspect of Trezor is designed with one priority: keeping your funds safe.
Secure Element Chip
Trezor Model T and Safe 5 use a dedicated secure element to protect your PIN and seed from physical extraction attacks.
Memory-Safe Firmware
Written in memory-safe Rust and Python, Trezor's firmware is designed to prevent buffer overflows and common exploit vectors.
Anti-Phishing Protection
Trezor Suite verifies device authenticity at every session. If your device has been tampered with, you'll know before you sign anything.
PIN Entry Scramble
Your PIN keypad is randomized on every entry — so even if someone records your screen or keystrokes, they can't learn your PIN.
Shamir Backup (SLIP39)
Split your recovery seed into multiple shares distributed across safe locations. Recover funds with only a subset of shares — no single point of failure.
Bug Bounty Program
Trezor publicly invites security researchers to probe the system and rewards responsible disclosures — keeping the community one step ahead of attackers.
