Trezor Suite steps up to serve Trezor users

January 19, 2022

3 min read

Trezor, the first hardware wallet, was given a new desktop application in July 2021. It is now completely replacing the old Trezor Wallet interface, which will no longer be supported from the 31st of January. The new app is called Trezor Suite and it is a major improvement that helps secure users of cryptocurrencies against phishing attacks, one of the most burning problems of crypto security nowadays. SatoshiLabs recommends that all Trezor users download the Trezor Suite desktop app and start using the best tool for their long-term security.

Trezor Suite brings significant improvements

As Bitcoin evolves and the number of users grows, different use cases are emerging. That's why security is not just about having the right hardware but also making sure the software used for managing your crypto portfolio takes advantage of all the new capabilities of Bitcoin and doesn't expose you to online threats.



The new desktop application provides a safe and more private environment for managing cryptocurrencies that makes crypto more intuitive and easy to use - especially for those just starting out. Buying crypto from a reputable source directly from your Trezor has never been easier.

“Trezor Suite progressed, evolved and is now fully ready to take over Trezor Wallet with many new features and a complete redesign that improves our users' security and privacy. Switching from Trezor Wallet to Trezor Suite is smooth and easy - just download the Trezor Suite desktop app and enjoy a quick and easy onboarding.”

Matěj Žák, CPO at Trezor

Trezor Suite is packed with security and privacy features

Taking the wallet interface out of the browser environment eliminates the risk of phishing sites tricking users into revealing their seed or other critical information. A desktop app provides more robust protection with more powerful capabilities and reduces the number of mistakes or exploits that could result in someone losing their keys or coins.

Some of the cool features:

One of the first to support Taproot

The Bitcoin Taproot upgrade which was activated in November is already supported by Trezor Suite. This introduces some major changes to Bitcoin that build upon the SegWit upgrade of 2017, which enabled support for the Lightning network. Taproot is expected to have long-term effects on Bitcoin utility and adoption, and will see further advances in the coming years.

Decentralized exchange (DEX)

Buying, exchanging, and selling cryptocurrencies directly from your Trezor hardware wallet is made easy and secure by Invity, a SatoshiLabs company that lets you compare rates across verified exchanges to find the most competitive offers. Now, there is a new way to exchange crypto without KYC, thanks to Invity's integration of 1inch, a decentralized exchange built on the Ethereum network. When using the Trade section under your Ethereum account in Trezor Suite, users can now browse offers from the 1inch decentralized exchange alongside conventional exchanges.

Tor switch

Tor, a free and open-source network that reroutes internet traffic through many different servers, is available in Trezor Suite to prevent your ISP and others from tracking your internet activity. While Tor is quite technical, it has been made as simple as possible - at the click of a button - so all Trezor users can mask their connections.

Discreet mode

When using a Trezor around other people, physical privacy becomes an issue. Showing off account balances — accidentally or otherwise — can lead to risk of extortion or harm. That's why there is a switch in Trezor that blurs out all sensitive data, so users can safely peek at their balances on mouse-over.

Easy onboarding

Trezor Suite provides a quick and easy onboarding that will make sure your wallet is properly set up and secured, even if you've never used a Bitcoin wallet before. Designed as an all-in-one interface, you can safely and easily manage cryptocurrencies and improve your privacy without needing to install additional apps or learn complex networking.

The 2,100 unique limited devices feature a special engraving that embodies an empowering statement: "Independence isn’t given – it’s taken."

This Limited Edition is part of a broader awareness-raising campaign highlighting the critical importance of reclaiming personal independence, with a particular focus on financial sovereignty.

Trezor, the original Bitcoin hardware wallet company, announces the launch of a limited Trezor Safe 5 Freedom Edition. With this release, the company reignites one of the core principles of Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies: financial sovereignty. This exclusive Freedom Edition version features a distinctive bronze-colored backplate engraved with the empowering statement: “Independence isn’t given – it’s taken.” Each device is individually numbered, with only 2,100 units available worldwide.

Trezor Safe 5 Freedom Edition

Priced at $169—the same as the standard Trezor Safe 5—this limited edition also supports a meaningful cause. For every device sold, $10 will be donated to Trezor Academy, a global educational initiative that helps individuals in underserved regions access Bitcoin education and achieve financial independence. 

Bitcoin Advocates Re-declare Their Independence with Trezor

The Trezor Freedom Edition is a cornerstone of Trezor’s broader awareness-raising campaign, emphasizing the critical importance of reclaiming personal independence, particularly financial sovereignty. To highlight this message, Trezor collaborated with notable Bitcoin advocates who are making a global impact through education and empowerment. Together with these advocates and Trezor employees, the company created a compelling video that reaffirms the individual’s right to independence. The video concludes with Trezor’s CEO, Matěj Žák, gliding through the air with a parachute—a striking symbol of ultimate freedom and self-determination.

Bitcoin advocates appearing in the video:

  • Lina Seiche, the creator of The Little HODLer, uses art and humor to explain Bitcoin concepts, making them accessible to people worldwide. 
  • Isabela Santos, co-founder of Get Based and founder of Mexican bitcoin community BTC isla, educates the public about Bitcoin’s potential to transform financial systems.
  • Nikolai Tjongarero, founder of EasySats in Namibia and Trezor Academy organizer, champions Bitcoin adoption across Africa. 

Trezor points out the unique nature of cryptocurrencies and the decentralised financial system, which gives people the freedom to truly own and freely transact without restrictions. With full control over their private keys, an assurance only self-custody can provide, individuals are free from reliance on any third party, bank, or exchange and have the power to fully manage and secure their digital assets.

Anusha Schindler, Head of Brand at Trezor, comments: “The Trezor Safe 5 Freedom Edition isn’t just a hardware wallet—it’s a statement. It perfectly reflects our brand campaign, embodying our mission to empower individuals to take control of their financial future through self-custody. Limited to only 2100 serialized units, the Trezor Safe 5 Freedom Edition is designed for those who believe in self-reliance and the freedom to truly own and freely transact without restrictions.”

Sales start soon

SatoshiLabs Welcomes Ladislav Veselý as New COO

SatoshiLabs

2 min read

Defining the strategy for the holding group, building the best HR team in the Czech Republic, and supporting the founders and CEOs of individual companies are all ambitious goals Ladislav Veselý is bringing to SatoshiLabs as its new COO. Veselý enters this new chapter with years of leadership experience, having served as the CEO of Slevomat Group and Product Division Director at Seznam.cz.

"I was motivated by the opportunity to step into a completely different environment. After five years with one company, I was looking for a new industry, a different stage the company is currently in, and a new sense of purpose. I’m also inspired by the founders’ values and their focus on people and product quality. At SatoshiLabs, money isn’t the goal; it’s the energy that drives everything. This alignment made the decision easy for me, and I’m excited about this new chapter," says Veselý.

From Operations to Leading Three Companies

Veselý spent nearly five and a half years in leadership roles at Slevomat. After just one year as COO, he was promoted to CEO, eventually overseeing all three companies in the group. He considers Slevomat’s post-pandemic business performance his greatest professional achievement.

"I’m proud that Slevomat emerged from the pandemic as the strongest Czech travel brand, achieving record profits and profitability. At that time, the company was generating the vast majority of the European group’s profits," Veselý reflects.

He also credits his time at Seznam.cz as one of the most formative periods in his career, where he gained valuable experience in product development, agile methods, and team learning and development. Veselý also served as Chief Product Officer (CPO) at the publishing house Economia.

Building a Strong HR Team and Supporting Leadership
"What drew me to SatoshiLabs was a combination of factors: the team’s strong internal motivation, the truly global reach of the company, and the emphasis on personal freedom that comes with responsibility. Honestly, I feel like I’d work here even if they were making rubber ducks. The fact that we have four bootstrapped companies with global products is just the icing on the cake—and a huge source of motivation. The quality, passion, and trust I’ve sensed in just a few days are unlike anything I’ve experienced before," Veselý adds.

In addition to supporting the CEOs of the companies within the group, Veselý plans to define the group’s strategy and build the strongest HR and operations team in the Czech Republic.

"We wanted the new member of our leadership team to not only have extensive experience in operational management and a strong understanding of the holding environment and business-building processes, but also exceptional people leadership and development skills. Ladislav offers a unique combination of these qualities. His experience leading Slevomat and his approach to managing teams and companies will undoubtedly help us grow further," said Marek Palatinus, co-founder of SatoshiLabs.

Trezor Achieves Milestone with 100k ETH Staked Through Recently-launched Staking Feature

Trezor

2 min read

Staking was launched only a few months ago in May in Trezor Suite.

Service is in collaboration with reputable Everstake.

Only 0.1 ETH required to start staking.

Trezor, the world’s leading open-source cryptocurrency hardware wallet producer, proudly announces that its users have staked a remarkable 100,000 ETH since the company introduced secure staking in its Trezor Suite in May 2024. Through this new feature, Trezor enables users to earn rewards by participating in Ethereum’s network security directly from their Trezor wallets.

Trezor’s staking service, launched in collaboration with Everstake, a well-regarded staking-as-a-service platform, requires a minimum stake of just 0.1 ETH, making it accessible for a wide range of Ethereum holders. With auto-compounding rewards and a user-friendly setup within Trezor Suite, Trezor has simplified the staking process while maintaining top-tier security standards.

“We are thrilled to see such strong adoption of our staking feature,” said Matěj Žák, CEO of Trezor. “Trezor users believe in self-custody, but also want to see their holdings grow. In fact, staking is a great embodiment of that philosophy - holding rather than selling, but earning interest while allowing the community to benefit from the staked coins, all while keeping them maximally secure. We sensed that there was serious interest for such a service, but even we didn’t expect that we’d blast through this milestone within this year. This impressive level of engagement underscores our community’s commitment to both security and network participation.”
