## &#x20;**Trezor.io/start: Your Gateway to Secure Cryptocurrency Management**

If you're venturing into the world of cryptocurrency, securing your digital assets should be your top priority. At Trezor.io/start, we make it simple and secure for you to manage your cryptocurrencies with confidence. This page is your starting point for setting up your Trezor hardware wallet, ensuring your assets are protected against the ever-present risks in the digital world.

#### Why Choose Trezor?

Trezor is more than just a hardware wallet—it's a comprehensive solution for secure cryptocurrency management. With the rising threats of online hacks and phishing attacks, storing your digital assets in a Trezor wallet ensures they are kept offline and away from potential threats. At Trezor.io/start, we guide you through the straightforward process of setting up your wallet, so you can start managing your cryptocurrencies safely and efficiently.

#### Getting Started: What You Need

Before diving into the setup process, make sure you have everything you need:

* **Trezor Hardware Wallet:** Whether you have the Trezor Model T or the Trezor One, both models offer robust security features designed to protect your digital assets.
* **Computer or Mobile Device:** You’ll need a device with internet access to connect your Trezor wallet and complete the setup process.
* **USB Cable:** This is used to connect your Trezor wallet to your computer or mobile device.

#### Step-by-Step Guide to Setting Up Your Trezor Wallet

1. **Visit Trezor.io/start:** Begin by navigating to Trezor.io/start on your computer or mobile device. This is your official portal for setting up your Trezor hardware wallet.
2. **Download Trezor Suite:** The Trezor Suite is an all-in-one application designed to help you manage your cryptocurrencies with ease. Download and install the Trezor Suite on your device by following the instructions provided.
3. **Connect Your Trezor Wallet:** Use the USB cable to connect your Trezor wallet to your computer or mobile device. Once connected, the Trezor Suite will detect your wallet and prompt you to proceed with the setup.
4. **Initialize Your Wallet:** If this is your first time using Trezor, you’ll need to initialize your wallet. Follow the on-screen instructions to set up a new wallet, create a secure PIN, and generate your recovery seed—a crucial backup that ensures you can recover your assets if your wallet is ever lost or stolen.
5. **Secure Your Recovery Seed:** Your recovery seed is a series of 12 or 24 words that serves as a backup to your wallet. Write down these words in the exact order provided and store them in a safe, offline location. Never share your recovery seed with anyone, and avoid storing it digitally to prevent unauthorized access.
6. **Start Managing Your Cryptocurrencies:** Once your wallet is set up, you can begin adding and managing your cryptocurrencies. The Trezor Suite provides a user-friendly interface for sending, receiving, and monitoring your assets, all while keeping them secure.
