Setting up your Trezor Model One hardware wallet is a straightforward process designed to enhance the security of your cryptocurrency holdings. The first step is to ensure you have all necessary components: the Trezor Model One device, a USB connecting cable, the Trezor Suite desktop application (or its web version), and a recovery seed card with a pen.

Begin by connecting your Trezor Model One to your computer and launching the Trezor Suite. The software will prompt you to install the latest firmware, as the device is shipped without it. This installation ensures that your wallet is running the most secure and updated version of the firmware.

After the firmware installation, proceed to create a new wallet. You will be given a choice between a 'Standard seed backup' and an 'Advanced Shamir backup'. The standard option is typically sufficient for most users. This step involves generating a recovery seed phrase, which is crucial for accessing your funds if your Trezor is lost or damaged. Write down the 24-word recovery seed provided by the device and store it securely offline.

Finally, set a PIN to protect your device from unauthorized physical access. The Trezor Suite will guide you through this process, including a security check to ensure your device has not been tampered with during shipping. This setup process, although detailed, is essential for safeguarding your cryptocurrency investments.
