🖥️ How to Use Trezor.io/Start — Step by Step

1️⃣ Visit the Official Website

Go to https://trezor.io/start in your browser. Double-check the URL! Bookmark it to avoid phishing sites.

Choose whether you have a Trezor Model T or Trezor One. The instructions will adjust based on your device.

3️⃣ Download & Install Trezor Suite

• Click Download Trezor Suite for your operating system (Windows, macOS, or Linux).
• Open the installer and follow the prompts to install it.

4️⃣ Connect Your Trezor

5️⃣ Create a New Wallet or Recover an Existing One

6️⃣ Backup Your Recovery Seed (MOST IMPORTANT!)

• From here, you can:
  • Receive crypto
  • Send crypto
  • Check balances
  • Manage multiple accounts
  • Use advanced features like CoinJoin or passphrase encryption
