Before diving into the digital setup, make sure your Trezor device and its components are intact. Your box should contain:

  • Trezor hardware wallet

  • USB cable

  • Recovery seed cards

  • Instruction manual

  • Stickers

2. Visit Trezor.io/Start

Head over to trezor.io/start on your computer. This page is your portal to setting up your Trezor device. It offers clear instructions and links to necessary software.

3. Download and Install Trezor Bridge
