Hey everyone 👋

Quick update from ETH Prague, we wanted to share a bit of what we saw on the ground.

We had a booth right at the entrance to the hackathon area, and it turned out to be a great spot. A lot of people stopped by, especially since we actually had devices to show and demo (most booths were more DeFi-focused with just merch).

👉 Biggest surprise: people were buying devices on the spot TS7 got a lot of attention, and Obsidian Green was easily the favorite color.

Also… the plushies were a hit 😄

What people were asking

We had a lot of really good conversations. Most people didn’t just want to see the device, they wanted to understand it.

The most common questions:

• Do you support DeFi?
• Do you have apps like Ledger Live?
• What makes Trezor different?
• Do you support ETH NFTs?

So clearly, there’s still a big need for education around how things actually work.

Community connections

We also connected with a bunch of Ethereum communities from different countries who are actively teaching others and building local groups.

Interesting thing: A lot of them said Ledger isn’t really showing up anymore, and they’re looking for partners to support their communities.

There’s definitely potential there 👀

Side events & vibes

We sponsored and joined the Solana CZE side event:

• packed room
• lots of people curious about getting into Web3
• even a few asking about working at Trezor

Good energy overall.

Fun moment

We also ran into Vitalik and gave him a Trezor plushie.

He loved it 😄

Hey everyone, we just had our first AMA on X after a very long time. Me being the host with Lucien our Knowledge Base analyst.

We have put here together most of the questions with their answers from our transcripts

Trezor AMA Recap - Everything We Covered

🔋 Trezor Safe 7 Battery Life (asked by Jenny) The TS7 uses a LiFePO4 (lithium iron phosphate) battery, a very different chemistry to what you find in phones. It handles ~2,000 charge cycles vs. 300–500 for standard lithium-ion. It self-discharges slowly, survives being left at 0% with no damage, and even Lucien, who uses his daily, barely charges it. Trade-off: slower charging speed, but for a device you charge every few weeks, that's a non-issue.

🛡️ Security for Beginners Without Sacrificing Ownership (asked by Clark Kent) Trezor's approach: make the experience easier, not the trust model. Improved onboarding in Trezor Suite, live setup with a Trezor Expert, better backup optionsl, but zero compromise on self-custody. No middlemen, no accounts required, Tor support baked in, open to recover on any compatible wallet.

❌ Biggest Mistakes New Self-Custody Users Make The #1 misconception: thinking crypto lives on the device. It lives on the blockchain. The device holds the wallet backup. Your seed phrase is a copy of that backup, treat it accordingly. Never photograph it, never type it on a phone or computer, and never store it digitally.

⚠️ Most Underestimated Risk for Experienced Users (asked by Pump BTC) Complacency. Relying on memory, over-complicating setups, not running recovery drills. Recommendation: every few months, simulate losing your device — can you still access everything? Check your backup, verify your passphrase, know where your assets are.

📦 Supply Chain & Device Integrity (asked by M or Grace) Multi-layered approach: buy only from trezor.io or official resellers, check the holographic seal on arrival, device should arrive blank (no pre-loaded firmware), Trezor Suite verifies firmware signatures, and the Secure Element on Safe devices carries a certificate that's nearly impossible to counterfeit. Full details on GitHub and the Knowledge Base.

🎣 Social Engineering & Scam Protection (asked by Bong Fun) Most real-world attacks aren't sophisticated — they're fake emails, fake Trezor apps asking for your seed, or random hardware sent in the mail. Key rule: your seed phrase is entered only on the device itself, never on a phone or computer. Trezor Suite also filters and flags address poisoning attempts. Always get addresses directly from the source.

⚛️ Quantum Computing & Bitcoin (asked by multiple) Bitcoin's vulnerability depends on whether your public key is exposed on-chain. Most modern address types keep it hidden — but reused addresses and old Satoshi-era coins are more exposed (~20–30% of all Bitcoin). BIP 360 proposes a new quantum-resistant address type. The Trezor Safe 7 already supports post-quantum cryptography for firmware verification. Blockchain-level signatures are a separate, longer-term conversation.

🔭 Biggest Self-Custody Challenge in 2–3 Years (asked by Hotspice Media) Making self-custody genuinely easy without reintroducing trusted third parties. Progress already underway: SLIP39 backups, better mobile support, Bluetooth, scam protection — all while keeping true ownership intact.

🖥️ Running a Local Instance of Trezor Suite (asked by Rango) No one-click solution, but it's documented and doable. You can build from source, run a local web server + Blockbook backend. Easier option: in Trezor Suite Desktop, connect your own Bitcoin node via the coins settings menu — no building required, much more privacy.

🔐 How Private Keys Never Leave the Device (from live Q&A) The hardware wallet firmware simply doesn't have the ability to export private keys. It can show transaction details, sign if you confirm — that's the scope. A compromised computer can ask all it wants; the device won't answer. Open source on GitHub if you want to verify.

Heya everyone

We're planning to start creating short, no-fluff video content specifically for this community, real answers to the questions we see come up most here, straight from the Trezor team.

Before we jump in, we want to know what you actually want to see first.

Here are the topics we're considering:

A) 🌱 "The Wallet Backup Truth" busting the biggest misconception in self-custody (hint: your crypto isn't on your device)

B) 🛒 "Which Trezor in 2026?" an honest Safe 3 vs Safe 5 vs Safe 7 breakdown, because most comparison posts out there are outdated

C) 🔍 "How to Spot a Fake Trezor" the supply chain safety checklist, what to look for when your device arrives

D) ☠️ "Address Poisoning Explained" the scam that catches even experienced users off guard, and how to protect yourself

E) 🏦 "What Happens If Trezor Shuts Down?" the honest answer, and why your keys are always yours regardless

Drop your vote in the comments and tell us why or if there's something else you'd rather see us cover first, say it. We're genuinely reading everything.

Any suggestion will be rewarded!

Here’s a polished version with winners included naturally:

Hey everyone 👋

For our April Community Knowledge campaign, we want to try something a bit different.

Instead of just asking questions, we’d love for you to share your own security knowledge:

• tips that helped you stay safe
• mistakes you’ve learned from
• useful habits others should know
• facts about crypto security

Whether you’re a beginner or more experienced, your insight can help someone else.

We’ll choose the most helpful contributions and highlight them for the whole community 💡

Rewards:

• 2 users with the best contributions will each receive a Trezor Model T
• Other helpful answers will receive Reddit rewards
