What are Bron Guardians?

a. Your Bron Guardians are people you appoint who can help you restore access to your wallet in the event of a disaster. b. You name two people you trust to act as Bron Guardians. They don't have to know each other, and they won't know a single detail about what's inside your Bron wallet. c. In the event you lose your device and all access to the assets in your Bron wallet, your nominated guardians can help authenticate you to Bron and Qrypt, re-establishing access to your wallet. d. Guardians cannot work together or alone to gain access to your wallet. They can only help you prove who you say you are so that your shard can be regenerated.

FAQ — Bron Wallet

Cross-Chain Swaps

: The Bron interface lets you post an intent-based swap to an on-chain smart contract that acts as a request-for-quote (RFQ) noticeboard. Independent third-party Solvers see your intent and respond with competing quotes, and the swap executes on-chain directly between you and the Solver. Bron is not a party to the swap and does not match orders, route, or set prices. You see the exact rate before you accept and you sign the transaction yourself; standard network fees apply.
: Cross-chain swaps span Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Tron, Gram, Ripple, Hyperliquid, the Canton Network, and Layer 2s, directly from the Bron Wallet. You can swap a broad range of assets across these networks — not just stablecoins like USDT and USDC.
: No. Every swap executes fully on-chain, directly between your wallet and the Solver — your assets never leave your control. Solvers post collateral before quoting, so each step is transparent and verifiable on-chain. Bron provides software only: it does not hold assets, execute, match, or route transactions, and is not a VASP/CASP.
: Solver liquidity has historically supported up to $1,000,000 per trade, with spreads as low as 0.05%. Liquidity and spreads are provided by independent Solvers and are illustrative only, not guaranteed, and not an offer or inducement by Bron.
: Instead of routing through a single exchange, you post your desired outcome (your "intent") to an on-chain smart contract that works as an RFQ noticeboard, and competing independent Solvers respond with quotes. Bron is not a party to the swap and does not match or route your order — you choose a quote, sign once you’ve accepted it, and the smart contract settles the swap on-chain directly between you and the Solver.
: Yes. Besides the app, you can build swaps and other transactions programmatically through the Bron API and SDKs, or through an AI assistant using Bron’s MCP (Model Context Protocol) integration. You stay in control — every transaction still requires your authorization before it is signed and settles on-chain.

Multi-Role Account Access

: Yes. Bron supports shared workspaces where every seat has its own permissions — from view-only to full signing control. The policy engine works uniformly across all supported networks, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, HyperCore and HyperEVM, Tron, Canton, Ripple, Gram, and Layer 2s.
: You can grant view-only permissions, letting trusted parties such as an accountant or finance team monitor balances and transactions with no signing authority. They get full visibility and can export detailed reports with zero ability to move funds. Ideal for tax preparation and reporting.
: Yes. Businesses can configure a full policy framework with unlimited users, including multi-signature approvals, transaction limits, batch payments across multiple blockchains, and granular DeFi controls. Policies apply uniformly across every supported network.
: Yes. You can create a joint family account as a shared workspace where several people hold defined roles and permissions. It makes Bron well suited to managing family assets together and introducing loved ones to crypto in a controlled, trusted environment.
: Yes. Shared workspaces support configurable transaction limits — smaller transactions can be approved individually, while larger transfers, swaps, or DeFi interactions can require joint approval. It’s fully customisable for managing family assets in a controlled environment.
: A viewer or team member only sees the accounts you grant them access to — so if you do not want someone to see a particular account, simply do not give them access to it. Hiding an account behind a PIN is a separate, per-user privacy feature that applies to your own view, not to what invited members can see.
: Yes. The same policy engine that governs people also governs AI agents, so you stay in full control of what your agent can do. You can assign an agent one of several roles — viewer (read-only access to data), transaction operator (can build transactions but holds no signing rights), MCP hot signer (can sign transactions but not create them), or full access (an agent you configure to act with the full permissions you grant). You define these permissions and can change them at any time.

Digital Inheritance

: Bron has a native digital inheritance feature built into the wallet that lets beneficiaries you appoint recover full access to all your accounts and assets, across every supported network. No third party holds your assets at any stage of the process.
: Inheritance in Bron relies on its MPC architecture — not on intermediaries that hold your assets, seed phrases, smart contracts holding funds, or private keys being handed over. Your assets stay secured by MPC throughout the entire process.
: No. You can appoint one or multiple beneficiaries who are aware of their role, but none of them can view your balances, transactions, or activity while your access remains active.
: No. Any beneficiary can start the recovery process, but time-lock and multi-party safeguards built into the software protect against unauthorised recovery attempts while the owner is still active.
: No. A beneficiary does not need a paid subscription or to buy or hold BRON tokens to recover access — the inheritance process is built into the wallet and works without any purchase on their part.
: No. You can add, change, or remove beneficiaries at any time, and removal is private — a beneficiary you remove is not notified.

In-built Reporting

: Yes. You select a date range and download a clean Excel file with all your transfers, swaps, staking rewards, and other transactions — fully organised and easy to understand, including the notes you can append at the time of transaction, all designed to support tax and accounting workflows. Bron does not provide tax advice.
: Bron’s built-in reporting lets you export your activity to a structured Excel file for any date range, so you don’t have to screen-scrape blockchain explorers or piece together transactions by hand.
: Yes. Snapshot balances let you generate the exact composition of your wallet at any point in time — useful for tax filings, portfolio tracking, and financial reporting.
: Yes. You can attach a note to any transaction you perform, and those notes appear directly in your reports — so you always know why a transaction happened, not just when.
: Yes. Bron keeps a complete activity history of your workspace — transactions, logins, and changes — recording which member performed each action and when. It gives you and your finance team a clear, auditable record without piecing events together by hand.
: Yes. With the access you grant it, your AI agent can use all of Bron’s reporting functions — so you can ask things like "calculate my P&L" or "show me my staking rewards year to date" and get an answer in seconds, where the same work used to take hours.

DeFi – Controlled

: Bron automatically tracks every DeFi permission you have granted inside your wallet. You can clearly see which protocols have access to your assets and what kind of access they hold — no external tools or guesswork. This is available under Spending Caps inside Bron.
: You can revoke any DeFi permission instantly from within the wallet. Because approvals are tracked automatically, there’s no need for separate third-party revoke tools or technical know-how.
: Your permissions stay under your control, so if a dApp you once used is ever compromised, you can revoke its access and keep your assets out of reach — instead of leaving a forgotten, often unlimited approval open.
: Yes. Bron lets you connect to DeFi protocols while keeping full visibility and control over every permission you grant — you sign each interaction, and the protocol settles on-chain.
: Yes. Bron’s policy engine lets you restrict what each team member can do — for example, blocking connections to dApps or swaps, and even adding security delays (time-locks) to certain actions for specific members. You define these rules, and they apply across all supported networks.

Private by Principle

: Yes. By integrating the Zama privacy standard, Bron gives you tools to manage the on-chain visibility of your assets. With the Shield and Unshield functions, powered by Fully Homomorphic Encryption, balances and transfers are encrypted on-chain, reducing the risk of targeted theft, extortion, and unwanted attention.
: A hidden account is one you protect with a PIN. Once hidden, it disappears completely from the interface — its balances and transactions stay invisible until you enter the correct PIN in the search bar.
: Hidden accounts enable plausible deniability under duress, keeping core assets out of view. The system never indicates whether hidden accounts exist, and even a forced PIN reset only starts a 24-hour countdown rather than granting immediate access. These privacy features are intended for personal security against theft, extortion, and coercion.
: Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) allows data to stay encrypted even while it is used on-chain. Bron applies it through the Zama privacy standard so your balances and transfers can be shielded on blockchain explorers without leaving your self-custodial control. All this complexity is handled under the hood and delivered through the simple Shield and Unshield functions — so you do not need to be an engineer to manage your on-chain privacy.
: No. Bron is a self-custodial wallet that does not require user identification, and it does not collect or store your personal information. Some features — such as fiat on- and off-ramps — do require KYC, which is handled by third-party licensed providers, not by Bron.

Secure by Design

: Bron is self-custodial and built on layers of protection: MPC threshold signing with no seed phrase, passkey login with no passwords, biometric authorization on every transaction, 2-Factor Authentication for login and sensitive operations, time-locks on sensitive operations, dust protection, and 24/7 human support. No single layer is relied on in isolation. Although this might sound complex, it all works silently under the hood — using Bron is simple and enjoyable, and requires no technical knowledge.
: No. Bron uses passkeys only — and passkeys are far more secure than passwords: they can’t be guessed, reused, leaked in a data breach, or handed over to a scam or phishing site. You sign in with your device’s passkey, and every transaction additionally requires your biometric confirmation.
: No. Every transaction you sign requires your biometric authorization, and the signing shard itself is encrypted with your biometrics. Even on an unlocked or compromised device, a transaction is designed so that it cannot be signed without your biometric confirmation. Any AI agent you enable acts only within the limits and approval rules you set.
: Yes. Bron applies time-locks to high-risk, hard-to-reverse actions — such as resetting a forgotten PIN or initiating account recovery — so a forced or unauthorised attempt only starts a countdown instead of taking effect immediately. That delay gives you a window to notice and stop it.
: Attackers send tiny "dust" transactions to trick you into copying the wrong address. Bron hides dust by default to keep your history clean and reduce mistakes — though you should still always verify addresses before sending funds.
: Yes — and it is optional, not required to use Bron. You can choose to enable 2-Factor Authentication for signing in and confirming sensitive operations.
: Yes. Bron provides real human support through secure in-app chat, available 24/7 and typically responding within minutes.
: Yes. A Bron tag is a memorable handle for your workspace — a short, readable name instead of a long wallet address — that lets you receive assets without sharing your full on-chain address. It reduces copy-paste errors and the chance of funds going to the wrong address, and avoids exposing your on-chain address more widely than needed. Please note that Bron tag transfers work only between Bron users — one Bron user sending to another.
: Yes. Bron keeps a transparent event log of everything done in your workspace — logins and operations, with the member who performed each action and when. Access always requires authorization, so the log is a complete, accountable record of authorised activity you can review at any time.
: No. Bron is a self-custodial wallet that does not require user identification, and it does not collect or store your personal information. Some features — such as fiat on- and off-ramps — do require KYC, which is handled by third-party licensed providers, not by Bron.

The Impossible to Lose Wallet

: No. The seed phrase is a risk Bron does away with entirely — its MPC architecture splits your key into shards instead, so there is no 12- or 24-word phrase to write down, lose, leak, or have stolen. MPC is exactly the way large institutions store their crypto, and Bron now brings this technology to everyone.
: An MPC (multi-party computation) wallet never creates your private key in one piece — it is split into shards held across multiple parties. Unlike a seed-phrase wallet, there is no single secret phrase to lose, leak, or have stolen, and no single point of failure. Bron uses a two-of-three setup — your key is split into three shards, and any two of them can restore it, so no single shard is ever enough and losing one never locks you out.
: Yes. Bron’s MPC architecture is designed so you can recover access, even if every device is lost. You stay in control of your assets throughout.
: Yes. Because your key is shard-based and self-custodial, you can recover access even if Bron ceases to exist — Bron is a software interface, not the holder of your assets.
: Only you. Your key shards are distributed across your device, Bron, and an independent third party, assigned automatically when you create your wallet. No single party — including Bron — can sign transactions or move funds without your authorisation.
: Your private key is never created in one piece — it is split into three separate shards, each stored in a different place:
One on your own device (laptop or phone).
One on a Bron server.
One with an independent third-party service that works for you (Qrypt.com).
Any two of the three shards can recreate the key. When you create your wallet you appoint Qrypt as your trusted third party, and for security this cannot be changed.
If you lose all your devices, you can instruct Bron and Qrypt to regenerate your signing capability: Qrypt generates a new shard, together with the cryptographic material held by Bron. Both act only on your instructions, never on their own; likewise, if Bron ceases to exist, you can always recreate your private key on your instruction to Qrypt.
Bron has no contractual relationship with the third party — Qrypt works for you, the user, and is contractually obliged to act on your instruction, so you stay in control of your crypto at all times.
: Bron has no contractual relationship with Qrypt, so Qrypt never takes instructions from Bron. With a seed-phrase wallet, the sense of full control is partly illusory — you are a single software update away from a malicious backdoor introduced by your wallet provider. With Bron, that same attack would require collusion between two large, independent companies, which is hard to imagine even in theory. This is why MPC is trusted by large institutions to store their crypto assets.
: The Bron app — desktop or mobile — has built-in functionality that activates if it cannot connect to Bron servers. If that persists for a certain period, the app prompts you to recover your wallet with the trusted third party and gives you clear, step-by-step instructions. Always check your internet connection and try Bron Support first; only use this recovery path if you are certain Bron is no longer reachable.
: Yes. Bron has been audited by Trail of Bits, Cure53, and CertiK — three independent security firms. Beyond that, our MPC implementation is fully open source and available for inspection at any time at github.com/bronlabs/bron-crypto.

NFTs Done Right

: Yes. Bron is built as a native home for NFTs across networks — standard ERC-721 collections on Ethereum like Bored Ape Yacht Club, early non-standard formats like CryptoPunks, and Solana collections like Pudgy Penguins — all handled correctly and displayed clearly, with full metadata and traits always visible. And there is a bonus: holding a CryptoPunk in Bron gives you a one-tier upgrade on your plan.
: Yes. NFTs show with full metadata and traits, with no broken previews, no guesswork, and no need to switch to external explorers to see what you own.
: Yes. Bron makes it easy to keep NFTs in a dedicated account, separate from your main assets, while managing all your accounts through a single interface — reducing unwanted attention, since NFTs are often public and traceable.
: Yes. You can transfer NFTs between accounts, organise your collections, and choose any NFT to use as your Bron Avatar.

Staking

: Yes. You can stake without giving up self-custody. Through Bron you access staking from an independent validator (P2P.org), and your assets stay under your control the whole time, secured by Bron’s MPC architecture — the validator can never move or spend them, and you choose when to unstake. P2P.org is a global leader in institutional staking.
: Staking is available for assets including Ethereum and Solana through the Bron interface, with supported networks spanning ETH, SOL, GRAM, and HYPE.
: Neither. P2P.org acts purely as a validator and has no ability to move or spend your funds. You retain full ownership and control at all times, without giving up self-custody.
: Bron gives clear visibility into network rewards distributed by the protocol, projected unstaking timelines, and clean reporting designed to support tax and compliance workflows in your jurisdiction. And if you connect an AI agent to Bron, you can simply ask it to pull your staking rewards and return them in the format you need.

Crypto Meets Fiat

: Before your first transaction, you’ll need to complete KYC (KYB for businesses). This is done in-app through our partners at Sumsub. The fiat features are provided by Noah, an independent regulated provider. Once approved, Noah opens an account in your name. This will enable you to send and receive fiat transfers. Once a transfer arrives in your Noah account, Noah converts it to stablecoins, which are then accessible in your Bron self-custody wallet. Bron provides software only — it does not hold fiat, operate the account, or exchange or transmit funds. Platform access fees start from 0.05%; the provider applies its own transfer and conversion fees depending on the payment rail (SEPA, SWIFT, wire). Geo restrictions apply.
: Off-ramps work through the same regulated account. The conversion happens on the provider’s books, and funds are paid out to your bank account from the regulated account, which is in your name. Depending on the payment rail (SEPA, ACH, SWIFT, local transfers), payouts typically arrive within seconds to a few business days.
: Your bank only sees a transfer between two accounts in your own name — the regulated account with the licensed provider and your bank account. The crypto conversion itself happens upstream on the provider’s side, fully regulated.
: No. Bron is a self-custodial software interface and never holds or controls your assets. Fiat sits in the regulated account a licensed third-party provider opens for you in your name, and crypto stays in your wallet, secured by Bron’s MPC architecture, until you sign a transaction.
: Yes. Enter the invoice details in the app and pay it in crypto: your crypto goes to the licensed third-party provider, where it converts to fiat, and the invoice is settled from an account with your name on it — with payouts available in 120+ local currencies.
: Bron adds no artificial caps. Conversion limits depend on your verification level and your verified source of funds — after the one-time onboarding the workflow is the same for thousands or millions, individuals or businesses.

The Wallet Agents Deserve

: Bron gives you an exceptionally powerful set of tools for working with your agent. You decide exactly what your agent can do: our agent tooling lets you set the level of access and the capabilities your AI agent has within your wallet. These tools allow your agent to perform any action you could perform yourself, yet every transaction still requires your explicit approval before it goes through. You don’t need a separate device for this—all approvals can be handled through our desktop or mobile applications. If you’d prefer your agent to run fully autonomously, you can set up an MPC hot signer. Keep in mind that, in this configuration, your agent will be able to execute transactions without your explicit approval.
: With Bron’s MPC architecture, you can connect your AI agent to your wallet and assign it the role of transaction operator. The agent can read all wallet data and submit transactions for signing, but it cannot execute transactions on its own. You approve or cancel every transaction from your laptop or phone, so you always retain full control over the agent and explicitly authorize each action it takes. No additional hardware is required—every approval is handled effortlessly through the app on your phone or laptop.
: Bron is self-custodial software, so it never stores any of your funds or on-chain assets. Bron gives your agent the tools to interact with the blockchain, and gives you control over the agent at whatever level of granularity you require. No assets ever pass through Bron.
: Bron ships a native MCP server compatible with Claude, ChatGPT, and other MCP-enabled assistants. For scripted workflows, a full-featured CLI is available. For custom integrations, use the REST API at api.bron.org.
: Today this is a developer setup: you install Bron’s bron CLI on your computer and drive it from an LLM agent — Claude Code, Cursor, or custom tooling — directly, or through its built-in MCP server. State-changing actions like approving or signing always require your confirmation, and you can set guardrails such as spend limits and dry-runs before anything goes through. A simpler, in-app way to connect your agent — with a fuller step-by-step guide — is coming soon. For now, full instructions plus the CLI, REST API, and SDKs are at developer.bron.org/sdk/cli/agents.
