🔒 Comprehensive Trezor Wallet Security & Setup Guide

This section is designed to hold your **1800 words of unique content** detailing the features, security protocols, and setup instructions for the Trezor Hardware Wallet. Replace this placeholder text with your detailed articles, FAQs, or security manifestos.

1. The Foundation of Trust: How Trezor Works

The Trezor device is designed to isolate your private keys from your online computer. **Your keys never leave the hardware device**. This critical design feature prevents remote hackers and malware from accessing your funds. All signing operations—like sending a transaction—occur directly on the device, requiring a physical confirmation from you. This process is the core of its security. *Expand this point with approximately 450 words of detail.*

2. Essential Setup and Backup Procedures

Upon initial setup, you will be prompted to write down your **24-word recovery seed**. This seed is the **master backup** of your entire wallet. Store it offline, securely, and in a fireproof location. It must be protected with the utmost care, as anyone who finds it can gain access to your funds. **Do not digitalize this seed** (no photos, no emails, no cloud storage). We recommend using the provided recovery seed card. *Expand this point with approximately 450 words on best practices and potential pitfalls.*

3. PIN and Passphrase: Layered Protection

Your PIN (Personal Identification Number) is the first line of defense, preventing unauthorized physical access to the device. The **Passphrase (or "Hidden Wallet")** is an optional, yet powerful, second layer of security. It adds a 25th word to your seed, creating a completely separate, secret wallet that leaves no trace on the device itself. Using a strong, memorable passphrase adds an extraordinary level of defense against physical theft or coercion. *Expand this point with approximately 450 words on choosing strong passphrases and managing the PIN entry process.*

4. Best Practices for Daily Use

• **Always verify the URL:** Ensure you are on the official `wallet.trezor.io` or a trusted, official client.
• **Check the device screen:** Before confirming any transaction, always visually check the recipient address and amount on the Trezor's screen—not just your computer monitor.

• **Disconnect when done:** Unplug your device after completing your transactions.

Following these steps ensures you are maximizing the security benefits provided by your Trezor hardware wallet. **Your vigilance is the final layer of defense.** *Expand this point with approximately 450 words of practical tips and scenario examples.*
