Institutions do not rely on seed phrases. Why do you?
Why institutions abandoned seed phrases for Multi-Party Computation — and why individuals should follow. How Bron removes the single point of failure.
The Impossible
to Lose Wallet
No Seed Phrases. Recover Access Even if All Devices Are Lost
Bron's MPC architecture means you always stay in control of your assets and recover access at all times. Even if Bron ceases to exist.
Most Wallets Rely on Seed Phrases. Smart Money Doesn't.
Bron was built by the founder of Copper.co — the institutional crypto custody firm that secures tens of billions and has never been compromised. Bron now brings that same security from Wall St. to Main St. at a fraction of the cost.
Get startedNo Single Point of Failure
Your private key is never created in one piece. It is made up of shards held between your device, Bron, and an independent third party — assigned automatically when you create your account. No single party, including Bron, can sign transactions or move funds without your authorisation.

Inheritance
Your account access can be safely passed on to people you choose, using Bron's built-in digital inheritance tools.
Team Access
Configure view-only permissions for accountants and advisors. Set transaction limits, address-book restrictions, and n-out-of-m approvals. The most customisable policy engine in crypto.
FAQ
- 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.
-
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, Bron and Qrypt can together regenerate your signing capability; likewise, if Bron ceases to exist, you can always recreate your private key by retrieving your shard from Qrypt.
Bron has no contractual relationship with the third party — Qrypt works for you, the user, and is contractually obliged to deliver its shard at your request, 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.
- 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.
- 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 retrieve your shard from the trusted third party and gives you clear, step-by-step instructions. Always check your internet connection and try Bron Support first; only use shard recovery if you are certain Bron is no longer reachable.
- 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.

Wealth Management Bron Brings Succession Planning to Crypto
Traditional crypto wallets have always had a single point of failure—the seed phrase, a password composed of a series of random words intended as a backup. As early crypto adopters age and digital assets become part of mainstream wealth planning, inheritance, particularly centered around the seed phrase, has emerged as a critical gap in self-custody.
