Why Trézor Is Safe
Unlike online wallets or exchange-based solutions, Trézor uses true cold storage. Your private keys never leave the device. Even if your computer is compromised, your funds stay protected. Every transaction must be physically verified and confirmed on your Trézor device, ensuring security against fraud and phishing.
With open-source firmware and community-reviewed code, Trézor remains one of the most transparent and trusted crypto wallets available today.
