  • Connect Your Device: Plug your Trezor into your computer or mobile device using the provided USB cable. Ensure you are using a secure connection and avoid public Wi-Fi networks.

  • Create a PIN: During the setup process, you’ll be asked to create a PIN for your device. Choose a PIN that is unique and not easily guessable to enhance your wallet’s security.

  • Backup Your Recovery Seed: After setting up your PIN, you will receive a recovery seed. Write this down on the provided card and store it in a safe location. This seed is essential for recovering your wallet if your device is lost or damaged.

3. Exploring Trezor Suite
