With Trezor, you truly own your cryptocurrencies. There are no banks, exchanges, or third parties controlling your assets. This self-custody approach means you have full responsibility and complete control over your digital wealth, aligning with the original decentralized principles of cryptocurrency.

Support for Numerous Cryptocurrencies

Trezor devices support over 1,000 coins and tokens, allowing you to secure all your investments in one place. From Bitcoin and Ethereum to lesser-known altcoins, your Trezor wallet can accommodate diverse cryptocurrency portfolios while maintaining the highest security standards for all your assets.

Trezor Security Features

Recovery Seed Phrase

During setup, your Trezor generates a unique recovery seed phrase that allows you to restore access to your funds if your device is lost, stolen, or damaged. This 12-24 word backup ensures you never lose access to your cryptocurrencies.

PIN Protection

Every Trezor device is protected by a PIN that prevents unauthorized physical access. The innovative matrix input system ensures your PIN cannot be compromised even if someone watches you enter it.

Open-Source Transparency

Trezor's open-source software allows the community to continuously verify and improve its security. This transparency ensures there are no hidden vulnerabilities or backdoors in your device.
