Bron uses Multi-Party Computation (MPC) to generate your wallets without ever creating a traditional private key. Instead, Bron generates three secure pieces — called shards — distributed between you, Bron, and a trusted third party. These shards are used to securely sign transactions.
1. Install the Bron App
To get started, download and install the Bron Desktop App.
This app does a few important things:
Generates your Vault using MPC;
Facilitates secure cooperation between you, Bron, and a trusted third party;
Handles shard generation;
Signs your transactions.
You can use the desktop app as a standalone tool or alongside the web platform.
🔐 Note: Bron app stores only your shard on your device, encrypted and protected by your device’s authentication method (password, PIN, or biometrics).
To download it, hit Download button on the first page or go to the top right corner, click your avatar, select Bron app, and choose your operating system:
2. Create the First Account
Once the app is installed:
Open Bron app.
Click “Create Vault Account”.
Give your account a name.
If you want to keep it hidden, you can choose to hide it from the interface — later, just enter your PIN to unhide it.Start shard generation.
Shard generation may take a minute. During this process, the MPC system is securely splitting your cryptographic material.
What Happens During Shard Generation?
Instead of creating a single private key, MPC splits it into three shards:
One stays on your device.
One is stored securely by Bron.
One is held by a trusted third party.
All three shards never meet together in one place. When signing a transaction, only your shard and Bron’s shard collaborate. The third shard is only used for recovery.
This setup enables powerful features and protections:
Account recovery is possible even if your device is lost or Bron is unavailable.
No seed phrases or backup codes to store manually.
Built-in security policies — like transaction limits, address whitelists, and multi-approver rules — that can’t be bypassed.
3. You’re All Set
Once the shard is generated:
You’ll see it appear in Bron app.
Your new account will be visible and active on the platform.
You’re now ready to manage your crypto securely with Bron.
4. Deposit Crypto
That’s it — your first vault is ready!
You can now deposit cryptocurrency into your new account.
