5 things you should know about the quantum-ready Trezor Safe 7 hardware wallet and its revolutionary chip | by Henry Windle | Oct, 2025
Two world-firsts to future-proof security, here’s why our new flagship hardware wallet redefines crypto ownership
Most new tech releases feel like minor upgrades… slightly sharper graphics, barely better screens.
But when it comes to hardware wallets, every leap matters. The Trezor Safe 5 was a big step forward from the Trezor Safe 3 for usability. And the Trezor Safe 7? It introduces features never before seen in any hardware wallet.
More than an upgrade, it marks a bold new chapter in self-custody and sovereignty.
We started this industry in 2014 with the release of the world’s first hardware wallet and now, over a decade later, we’re breaking another milestone in crypto security.
Here are 5 reasons why the Trezor Safe 7 is a must-have device for serious crypto HODLers & traders (especially if you’re worried about quantum computing)…
Reason #1: World’s first transparent and auditable Secure Element chip
Secure Element chips are used to secure sensitive information in your hardware wallet, but many of them require non-disclosure agreements (NDAs), which means:
- They cannot be verified and vetted by the community
- If they are not fully secure or there is a security risk, it cannot be shared publicly
As a company built on open-source values, this is unacceptable and unsustainable for long-term security in crypto self-custody.
So we (SatoshiLabs group and Tropic Square) built it!
Trezor Safe 7 is the first-ever hardware wallet powered by the world’s first transparent and auditable TROPIC01 Secure Element chip.
That’s a lot of “firsts”!
What this means for you:
- You have access to the most secure dual Secure Element design available
The Trezor Safe 7 pairs the transparent TROPIC01 chip with an additional NDA-free Secure Element chip, giving you unmatched protection against potential threats to your crypto.
Why two different chips? Having two chips from different manufacturers means any would-be attacker must hack both chips, increasing the overall device security.
- You’re using an auditable, community-verified chip
There is nothing hidden, and there are no NDAs. Just like the rest of Trezor, the new TROPIC01 chip’s open architecture design is fully transparent. We cannot overstress the transformative impact of this chip technology on the world.
Reason #2: World’s first quantum-ready hardware wallet
Quantum computing has long been considered FUD in the crypto space, and it’s certainly a bad argument for disproving the worth of Bitcoin… but it is a very real threat to the future of crypto security, at least theoretically.
If crypto is going to be the future of money, it needs to be ready for the era of quantum computing.
NIST (the National Institute of Standards and Technology) has set 2035 as the target year for phasing out today’s vulnerable cryptographic algorithms.
We think it’s better to be prepared and paranoid than not, which is why we’re moving now.
And acting today encourages the entire industry to come together and prepare far in advance.
What this means for you:
- Your Trezor Safe 7 has a special built-in safeguard, the boardloader architecture. It’s designed with quantum-secure protection, so your wallet can safely update in the future. Hardware wallets without this cannot update to quantum-ready firmware securely.
This device is built for the next decade of crypto security. With quantum computing breakthroughs approaching, we want you to be ready to act quickly and update securely.
When networks eventually upgrade to post-quantum security, you won’t need to replace your hardware wallet.
This is the first step to tackling this challenge. If you want to be ready, pre-order the Trezor Safe 7 today.
Heads-up: Owning a Trezor Safe 7 right now doesn’t make your coins instantly quantum-proof. What it does give you is hardware that’s ready for the transition.
Reason #3: Secure, encrypted Bluetooth for crypto on the go
You’ve probably got a box, or a drawer that’s filled with all your cables…
It takes 5 minutes to find the right one.
You spend an extra minute untangling it.
In that time, you could be managing, trading, buying, and securing your crypto!
With many Trezor users interacting with their device almost daily, you may not want to carry another wire with you everywhere you go.
Now your mobile, desktop, and tablet all have wireless support with full functionality. You can use everything Trezor Suite has to offer anywhere you go.
Want to trade while travelling? Easy.
Want to explore the world of dApps securely in Trezor Suite from your laptop? Sorted.
Want to charge without a wire? Magnetic wireless charging makes this easy.
No cables. All devices. Full performance.
What this means for you:
- Bluetooth convenience with the same high level of security (fully encrypted pairing)
Trezor Safe 7 uses the open-source Trezor-Host Protocol (THP) to secure Bluetooth with double pairing. It adds a second layer of protection, ensures end-to-end encrypted communication, improves privacy, and prevents unauthorized connections.
And if you don’t want to leave the cables behind just yet? Don’t worry, the Trezor Safe 7 still supports USB-C cables (included with the device). You can turn off Bluetooth anytime in settings.
Reason #4: Fully open-source code since day 1
Not 95%… not 97%… 100%!
Here’s why some hardware wallets aren’t fully open-source…
• Everyone copies you (we’ve lost count of how many other wallets use our code)
• You’re constantly being publicly observed and tested (competitors, auditors, Security Bounty program — we pay people for improving our security)
It’s a lot easier to hide vulnerabilities behind closed-source code.
But for us, transparency was never optional.
Like Bitcoin, Trezor must be open-source so your crypto remains fully secure and under your control.
And the Trezor Safe 7 is built to be trustless by design. 10+ years of open-source innovation have gone into making our most transparent hardware wallet yet.
If you care about and expect radical transparency from your hardware wallet and the company that builds it, nothing comes close to the Trezor Safe 7.
What this means for you:
- Do not trust Trezor. You don’t need to, and that’s the point
Anyone in the community can and does verify that Trezor is safe and secure; we even pay people for finding vulnerabilities!
Reason #5: Built for the future, ready for anything
Strength you can trust, comfort you can feel.
That’s what we built the Trezor Safe 7 for.
This device balances a premium, durable design with ease of use and usability, which is what you want if you’re safeguarding your wealth for the future.
Here’s what you get:
• Sleek Gorilla Glass covers the display, keeping your screen clear and protecting the device from any scratches or bumps
• Premium aluminum unibody keeps your device safe from drops or falls, with added protection against dust and water splashes
• Strong haptic feedback and tactile responses during use clear up any confusion around interactions
• Bigger custom 2.5” high-res color touch display makes navigation easy (see exactly what you’re signing). This display is 62% bigger than the Trezor Safe 5!
• Our LifePo₄ battery is built with long-term crypto storage in mind, with 4x more charging cycles than lithium batteries and 40 times greater protection from fires and explosions
Ready to experience the future of crypto hardware security?
If you want a hardware wallet that prioritizes longevity and radical transparency with never-before-seen technology, then secure your assets with our most advanced hardware wallet, the Trezor Safe 7. Another world’s first from the team that built the original hardware wallet.
