Official Start Page — Initialize Your Device™ Secure your digital assets with confidence, privacy, and full control.

Welcome to the Official Start Page

This page is your trusted starting point for setting up and initializing your hardware wallet. Whether you are new to self-custody or an experienced crypto user, this guided process ensures that your device is configured correctly, securely, and privately.

Initializing your device properly is the most important step you will take in protecting your digital assets. By following the instructions on this page, you ensure that your private keys are generated offline, stored securely, and never exposed to the internet.

Why Initialization Matters

Hardware wallets are designed to protect you from online threats, malware, phishing attacks, and unauthorized access. However, this protection depends entirely on proper initialization.

Skipping steps or using unofficial sources can put your funds at risk. Always use the official start page and follow each instruction carefully.

Before You Begin

Preparing properly will make the setup process smooth and stress-free. Before connecting your device, make sure you have the following ready:

Important: Never store your recovery seed digitally. Do not take photos, screenshots, or save it in cloud storage.

Step-by-Step Initialization Guide

1

Connect your hardware wallet to your computer or mobile device using the supplied USB cable.

2

Visit the official start page and download the recommended desktop or web interface.

3

Verify and install the latest firmware to ensure your device is authentic and up to date.

4

Create a new wallet and carefully write down your recovery seed in the correct order.

5

Confirm the recovery seed directly on your device to ensure accuracy.

6

Set a strong PIN code to protect your wallet from unauthorized physical access.

Understanding Your Recovery Seed

Your recovery seed is a list of words generated by your device. These words are the master key to your wallet. Anyone who has access to this seed can fully control your funds.

Best Practices

If your device is ever lost, damaged, or stolen, the recovery seed is the only way to restore access to your assets.

Security Tips for Long-Term Safety

Initialization is only the beginning. Maintaining good security habits will protect your assets for years to come.

Remember: true ownership of digital assets means taking full responsibility for their security. With the right setup and habits, you remain in complete control.

You're Ready to Go

Once initialization is complete, you can begin managing your digital assets securely. Send, receive, and store cryptocurrencies with confidence, knowing your private keys remain protected offline.
