1. Understand Privacy Risks
Even hardware wallets can expose metadata. Recognize risks to protect your stablecoins from tracking or leaks.
2. Use a Dedicated Device
Reserve a separate computer or smartphone solely for Trezor Suite transactions to reduce digital fingerprinting and tracking.
3. Enable Passphrases
Passphrases create hidden wallets not linked to your main recovery seed, increasing anonymity and security.
4. Avoid Reusing Addresses
Generate new receiving addresses for each transaction. This practice prevents linking multiple transactions to a single identity.
5. Use VPN or Tor
Access Trezor Suite via VPN or Tor to hide your IP address, ensuring no connection metadata is linked to your transactions.
6. Monitor Blockchain Privately
Use privacy-focused explorers that don’t log IP addresses when reviewing transaction confirmations and balances.
7. Limit Public Sharing
Avoid posting wallet addresses or transaction details online to prevent potential deanonymization.
8. Manage Stablecoin Transfers Wisely
Break large transfers into smaller amounts when possible. This makes tracing individual transactions more difficult for third parties.
9. Keep Firmware Updated
Regular updates include security enhancements that protect against malware and privacy-compromising vulnerabilities.
10. Secure Backup Practices
Keep recovery seeds offline and never store digital backups in connected devices or cloud services.
