Trezor for Beginners - How To Secure Your Bitcoins in Trezor Wallet with Passphrase Even if Seed is Stolen [a Must to know] (Series: 5 of 5)

in #cryptocurrency7 years ago

Trezor is the world’s first Bitcoin hardware wallet and also one of the secure wallets to be used.

Even if your seed word is stolen, you can keep your Bitcoins secure. That's what passphrase offers.

Simply Put: Passphrase support lets you add custom words added to your 24-word recovery phrase. A passphrase prevents this because, in addition to the 24-word seed phrase, a thief would need the seed plus the passphrase used to create the private keys/wallet, which is only memorized by the wallet’s creator.
So that's why by now, you must have understood that when it comes to cryptocurrencies, only private keys really matter! In this video learn how to make your Bitcoin & Altcoin's private keys Ultra secure by enabling passphrase feature on your Trezor hardware wallet, in an event where your device (i.e. stolen or lost) is attacked physically through an electron microscope.
