The device features a secure element chip that protects against physical tampering and sophisticated attacks, providing you with peace of mind that your digital wealth is truly secure.

During the setup process, you'll be guided through creating a recovery seed, which consists of 12 or 24 randomly generated words. This recovery seed is the most critical component of your wallet security. It allows you to recover your funds if your device is lost, stolen, or damaged. Write down these words on the recovery card provided with your Trezor, and store it in a secure location such as a safe or safety deposit box. Never store your recovery seed digitally or share it with anyone, as anyone with access to these words can access your funds.

The application supports thousands of cryptocurrencies and tokens, allowing you to send, receive, and trade digital assets with confidence. The suite includes advanced features such as portfolio tracking, exchange integration, and transaction history, all while keeping your private keys safely stored on your Trezor device.
