Cold storage that puts you in control.

Trezor® hardware wallets deliver a proven, open-source cold storage solution for individuals and institutions. Keep your private keys off the internet, sign transactions securely, and recover access with robust backup options. Built with transparency and audited security, Trezor helps you own your digital assets — without compromise.

Private Keys Stay Offline

Cold storage design ensures that private keys never touch an online computer. Sign transactions on the device and transmit only the signed payload.

Open-source & Auditable

All firmware and client tools are open-source. Independent audits and community review increase trust and transparency.

Multi-coin Support

Manage Bitcoin, Ethereum, and hundreds of tokens via compatible wallets and integrations — with a single hardware device.

How Trezor cold storage works

1
Initialize
Set up your device using the official client. Create a new seed phrase on the device and store it securely offline—never on a cloud service.
2
Isolate
Private keys are generated and stored inside a hardware secure element. Signing is performed inside the device; only signed transactions are exported.
3
Sign
When you send crypto, confirm the transaction on the Trezor screen. Visual confirmation prevents host-based tampering.
4
Recover
If your device is lost, restore your wallet from the seed on a new Trezor device. Shamir-compatible or split-seed options are available for enterprise use.

Best practices for cold storage

  1. Create your seed offline on the device; never store it digitally.
  2. Use a strong device PIN and consider a passphrase for plausible deniability.
  3. Securely store backups in geographically separate locations.
  4. Keep firmware up to date and verify release signatures from official sources.
  5. Consider multisig and hardware HSM integration for large holdings.
