Why should I use a hardware wallet?
A hardware wallet, like Trezor, provides top-notch security by keeping your sensitive data and crypto access completely offline. This protects your assets from hackers, malware, and other online threats. Unlike exchanges, which can be vulnerable to hacks or government restrictions, a hardware wallet gives you full control of your assets. Additionally, Trezor offers easy wallet backup, ensuring your funds are recoverable even if the device is lost or damaged.
What is a hardware wallet?
A hardware wallet is a secure physical device for sending, receiving, and storing cryptocurrencies and tokens offline. It ensures maximum security by never exposing your wallet backup or sensitive data to an internet-connected environment like your PC or smartphone.
How does a hardware wallet work?
Your hardware wallet acts like a digital vault. It handles transactions offline, ensuring your precious crypto data is safe from internet exposure. It’s the smart way to manage your cryptocurrencies.
What if I lose my hardware wallet?
No stress! Get a new Trezor from the Trezor Shop or an official reseller. Then use your wallet backup, which you created when setting up your first wallet, to regain access to your funds on the new wallet. Need help? Reach out to Trezor Support.
