Protecting your cryptocurrencies requires following security best practices:

PIN Protection

Your Trezor device is protected by a PIN code. Choose a strong PIN that you can remember but others cannot easily guess.

Recovery Seed

Your 24-word recovery seed is the key to your cryptocurrency. Write it down on the provided cards and store it securely offline.

Verify Addresses

Always verify receiving addresses on your Trezor device screen before sending funds to prevent address manipulation attacks.

Physical Security

Keep your Trezor device in a safe place when not in use. Treat it like you would treat cash or other valuable items.
