Secure Your Crypto with Trezor Bridge

What is Trezor Bridge?

Trezor Bridge is a lightweight application that enables secure communication between your Trezor hardware wallet and your web browser. It ensures that your private keys never leave your device, providing a safe environment for managing your cryptocurrencies.

Unlike browser extensions that can be outdated or conflict with browser updates, Trezor Bridge installs at the system level. Once installed, it runs quietly in the background, ensuring a seamless and secure connection between your Trezor device and supported web applications.

Benefits of Using Trezor Bridge

• Enhanced Security: Private keys remain on your Trezor device; Bridge never stores sensitive data on your computer.
• Seamless Integration: Compatible with various platforms like Trezor Suite, MetaMask, Exodus, and more.
• Open Source: Fully open-source software, allowing independent verification of its security and functionality.
• Automatic Updates: Bridge runs at the system level and updates automatically, reducing maintenance efforts.
