Frequently Asked Questions

Is Trezor completely secure?

While no security solution is 100% foolproof, Trezor provides the highest level of security for cryptocurrency storage. Your private keys never leave the device, and all transactions require physical confirmation on the device itself.

What happens if I lose my Trezor device?

If you lose your Trezor device, you can recover your entire wallet using the 12-24 word recovery seed that you created during the initial setup. It's crucial to store this seed securely and never digitally.

What's the difference between Trezor Suite and Trezor Wallet?

Trezor Wallet is the web-based interface, while Trezor Suite is a more advanced desktop application with additional features like coin control, Tor integration, and customizable fees. Both interfaces connect to the same Trezor device.

Do I need Trezor Bridge?

Trezor Bridge is necessary for the Trezor device to communicate with web browsers. If you're using Trezor Suite desktop app, Bridge is not required as the communication is handled natively.
