Trézór Bridge® vs. Browser Extensions: What’s Safer? 🧠⚖️

When connecting your hardware wallet to the web, you might wonder: "Why not just use a browser extension?" 🤔 Here’s why Trézór Bridge® is the safer, smarter option for serious crypto users.


🧩 The Problem With Browser Extensions

Browser extensions are easy to install — but they’re also more exposed to attacks, phishing, and malicious code. Even popular crypto extensions have been cloned or hijacked. ❗

Your private keys could be at risk if a malicious script hijacks the connection.


🔒 Why Trézór Bridge Is Better

Unlike browser extensions, Trézór Bridge runs locally and isn’t exposed to browser vulnerabilities. It offers:

  • Encrypted communication
  • Local-only interaction
  • No storage of private data
  • Protection from phishing scripts

Your Trézór device signs transactions physically, keeping keys offline — Bridge just provides the secure link. 🛡️


🌉 Bridge: The Secure Communication Layer

Bridge is like a dedicated tunnel between your hardware wallet and the browser — unlike extensions, it doesn’t store credentials or allow remote access. 🧱

The only way to complete a transaction is through physical confirmation on your Trézór device. That’s the definition of safe.


🚀 Bonus: Bridge Supports Trézór Suite and Web3 Apps

With Trézór Bridge installed, you can:

  • Use Trézór Suite (Desktop or Web)
  • Interact with DeFi, NFTs, and dApps
  • Stay fully non-custodial at all times

It’s the best of both worlds — security + functionality. 🌐💪


🧠 Final Takeaway

If you care about security, use Trézór Bridge — not browser shortcuts. It’s built by the official Trézór team, battle-tested, and essential for safe crypto interaction.
