Understanding Trezor

What It Is

Trezor is a hardware wallet that stores your crypto private keys offline, allowing safe signing of transactions without exposing keys to a computer or the internet.

Core Features

Login Process

Logging into a Trezor wallet is not like typical web logins. It involves connecting the device, entering the PIN, and approving actions physically:

  1. Connect your Trezor to a trusted computer.
  2. Open Trezor Suite or official web wallet.
  3. Verify the software and site authenticity.
  4. Enter PIN on-device using randomized grid (if available).
  5. Approve transactions directly on the device display.
  6. Signed transactions are broadcast securely.
