Official hardware wallet for self-custody

Trezor — Own your keys. Own your future.

Trezor is a purpose-built hardware wallet that puts private keys under your control. Designed from the ground up for durable, auditable security, Trezor enables safe storage, straightforward backups, and seamless interaction with the Bitcoin ecosystem and thousands of cryptocurrencies.

Why choose a hardware wallet?

Cryptocurrency is digital money you control through private keys. Storing those keys on an internet-connected computer or exchange exposes them to theft, phishing, and malware. A hardware wallet like Trezor isolates keys in a tamper-evident device — transactions are created on your computer but signed only after you approve them on the device, preventing remote compromise.

Real ownership

When you hold your private key you truly own your crypto. Trezor makes self-custody accessible: set up in minutes, with step-by-step guidance for generating and protecting your recovery seed.

Simple backups

Back up once using a recovery seed phrase. Store it offline — on metal plates, in a safety deposit box, or distributed across trusted locations — and restore your wallet on a new device if needed.

Built for Bitcoin

Trezor prioritizes the cryptographic standards that Bitcoin demands: deterministic wallets, PSBT support for advanced signing workflows, and compatibility with broad Bitcoin tooling and multisig setups.

Modern UX

A clearly designed interface — available via Trezor Suite or compatible third-party wallets — makes sending, receiving, and exploring decentralized finance approachable for beginners and efficient for pros.

Models & comparisons

Different users have different needs. Trezor offers models that range from compact and affordable to feature-rich devices geared toward power users and developers.

Model A

Compact, durable, great for everyday use.

Model B

Advanced features, larger screen, passphrase-friendly.

Model Pro

Enterprise-ready, additional storage and multisig convenience.

Each model follows the same security-first principles: private keys stay on-device, firmwares are signed, and all transaction approvals require a physical action on the device.

Security architecture

Trezor's security model is layered and explicit. The device isolates cryptographic material, firmware updates are signed and verifiable, and the device's interface is deliberately minimal to reduce attack surface. Below are the pillars that protect your funds:

Device isolation

Private keys are generated and stored in secure memory inside the device. Signing requires physical confirmation — a button press or screen tap — guaranteeing that automated or remote attackers cannot perform transactions silently.

Open verification

Both firmware and client software are open-source, allowing independent audits, academic review, and public scrutiny. Release signatures, reproducible builds, and third-party audits strengthen trust across the ecosystem.

Recovery & passphrase

Recovery uses a seed phrase compliant with widely used standards; users have the option to augment the seed with an additional passphrase. While the seed allows full restoration, the passphrase provides plausible deniability and an extra security layer when used correctly.

Supply-chain protections

Buy only sealed devices from authorized sellers. Trezor devices include anti-tamper packaging and verification steps during setup to ensure authenticity before the device generates keys.

Use cases

Trezor fits multiple roles in the crypto ecosystem:

Everyday users: Safely store and spend bitcoin and tokens with a simple backup and intuitive interface.

Long-term holders: Cold storage with offline seed backups for those prioritizing maximum safety.

Power users & developers: PSBT, multisig, hardware signing for advanced custody and integration with developer tooling.

Teams & treasuries: Multi-device, multi-signature setups to decentralize approval and reduce single-point-of-failure risk.

FAQ

Q: How is Trezor different from a software wallet?
A: Software wallets store keys on internet-connected devices. Trezor stores keys in hardware, separate from your online environment. That reduces exposure to malware and remote theft.

Q: What if I lose my device?
A: Restore your funds using the recovery seed on a new Trezor or a compatible wallet. That’s why secure seed storage is critical.

Q: Can I use Trezor with other wallets or services?
A: Yes — Trezor works with many wallets, exchanges, and DeFi interfaces that support hardware wallets. Always verify the third-party integration's reputation and security model.

Q: Does Trezor support Lightning Network or staking?
A: Trezor supports a growing set of features and integrations. Refer to the compatibility list for exact support by coin and protocol.
