    Your team needs to create more content and tutorials, do yourself and everyone interested in getting a Trezor a favor by creating useful content. The downside is when you search for Trezor tutorials a bunch of terrible videos come up, it's silly you don't provide more resources for something so critical as a hardware wallet. This is critical feedback, I'm not hating on Trezor.

    So the Passphrase is not a software thing limited to the Trezor suite software but is something that actually gets linked as "extra-wallet" to your recovery seed on the blockchain?
    I initially thought it was just a software-thing like the PIN. But if it's possible to recover crypto with it in third party software it must get integrated into the blockchain if you set up one. Otherwise how would recovery in third party software with the passphrase be possible?

    • @TrezorWallet
      @TrezorWallet  2 роки тому +4

      Hi Verbunden, exactly, the passphrase is a matter of the wallet, not the app. The PIN protects the device, and it's device-specific. The passphrase on the other hand is tied to a wallet=seed (sometimes it's referred as 25th or 13th seed word - a phrase on top of the seed). That's why it's possible to recover your passphrase-protected wallet to a 3rd party software as long as you have both seed and the passphrase available.

      There are no such plans because we love cryptocurrencies, but even if we had to close down, there is nothing to worry about. Trezor is compatible with other BIP32, BIP39 and BIP44 compatible wallets. Since our code is publicly available, developers from around the world can maintain it and add new functionalities. In emergency cases (although this is not recommended), it is possible to use the recovery seed to recover your funds in a different wallet as well!

See some compatible third-party apps wiki.trezor.io/Apps. This process can be reproduced with the same result at any time, even offline. You can simply recover your wallet by using your recovery seed (and passphrase) with any other compatible hardware wallet / app when it's needed. Btw. both Electrum and Ledger support passphrase.

    1 ) How many hidden wallet can be created ? How many passphrases can u create in that order, with only one Trezor ? As many as a 50 characters combination suite ?
    2 ) So there's no way ur Trezor Wallet would check a previous passphrase, if the one u try is misspelled. But telling u this wallet is empty ?
    3 ) An no way a Trezor Suite upgrade would change anything about it.
    This option looks SO DANGEROUS for beginners. U should change the way it's presented to them. They should not use it too soon, but until the they have some background and understanding that HWW are kind of imported in third party wallet like MM. So also very easy too loose track of.
    Because this new passphrase is the first thing they will loose if they try it for the fun not knowing all implications.

      Hi Vivian,
      Ad 1) In theory, there is no limit; you can have as many passphrase wallets as you want. We have the 50 characters limit in Trezor Suite due to usability, so with Trezor Suite, the length is the only limit, and you can have as many combinations within this limit!
      2) There is no way to tell if the passphrase does not include a typo as there is no such thing as a wrong passphrase. However, Trezor will notify you once you enter an empty passphrase wallet, and the passphrase is also displayed on the Trezor display to double-check it.
      The passphrase is a great servant but a bad master. Users need to use it carefully indeed.

    Is this passphrase just like a private key? I'd need my trezors address private key in order to import it without using seeds, but when I click to check it on metamask, it doesnt have one.

    • @TrezorWallet
      @TrezorWallet  2 роки тому +2

      Hi Debukis, the passphrase is added on top of your current recovery seed. When you enter a passphrase, your Trezor combines the already existing randomness of your recovery seed with your own chosen input (the passphrase) and computes a new wallet. If you deposit your coins in MetaMask passphrase-protected wallet, you need to enter the passphrase as well. Otherwise, your coins are stored in the standard wallet, and entering a passphrase is unnecessary.
      In case of any problem, feel free to contact our customer support team. They are ready to help!

    hi,
    so in order to recover the wallet u need the seed wards + your passpharse?
    and one more question - in the trezor suite (using trezror one) in order to get ethereum u only use your ethereum address in your trezor suite (so i dont need to use mew).
    last question - when i recovered my trezor wallet its recovering all my coins? (bitcoin and ethereum)?

    • @TrezorWallet
      @TrezorWallet  2 роки тому

      Hi Yair, exactly, if your funds are stored in a passphrase wallet you will need a recovery seed + passphrase to recover the wallet. Seed covers your wallet as it is, which means it will recover all coins (BTC, ETH, and others); the same goes for passphrases.
      To answer your other question - you can use either the Suite ETH account or MEW, for example. The bottom line is that by using both wallet apps, you will be able to access the same ETH address, so it!s up to you which interface suits you better.

      Not at all. Each wallet is generated from the combination of RECOVERY SEED & PASSPHRASE (if enabled and used).
