XLM itself does not require activation, but the Stellar network enforces a minimum reserve that is locked on your account and cannot be moved. The reserve is calculated as follows:

Base reserve — 1 XLM is locked as the base account reserve.

Per-token reserve — an additional 0.5 XLM is locked for each active token (trustline) on the account.

This reserve is held by the Stellar network itself and is not controlled by Bron.

Any Stellar-based token must be activated before your account can receive that asset — the network calls this creating a trustline. If a token is not activated and someone sends that token to your address, the transaction will be rejected by the network.

To activate a token:

Step 1 — Go to Deposit and select your account.

Step 2 — Select Stellar (XLM) as the network from the dropdown.

Step 3 — You will see a list of all supported Stellar tokens. Any token that has not been activated will show an Activate button next to it.

Step 4 — Click Activate on the token you wish to enable. A confirmation screen will appear — click Activate to confirm.

Bron currently supports 11 Stellar-based tokens sourced from CoinMarketCap, including USDC, EURC, AQUA, VELO, WXT (Wirex Token), SHX, VNXAU (VNX Gold), VEUR (VNX Euro), GYEN, SIX, and SSLX.

You can connect your Stellar account to dApps that support WalletConnect, such as Sushi, through dApp Connect. You review and sign transactions, including Soroban smart-contract calls, and messages inside Bron with your Passkey. Before you sign, Bron simulates the transaction and shows what leaves your account, what arrives, and the network fee in XLM.

If you have questions, contact our support team via the messenger on the Bron platform or at support@bron.org.
