Thanks to a generous donation from Trezor Company s.r.o., our students interested in fintech and digital assets received Trezor Model T hardware wallets. Hardware wallets play a key role in secure self-custody, as they store private keys offline and help protect users from common online risks such as hacking, phishing, and malware. We truly appreciate this valuable addition to the curriculum that opens the door to fintech practice.
