🌉🔐 Trezor Bridge – The Secure Connection Between Your Wallet and Web Browser

Trezor Bridge is a communication tool that enables your Trezor hardware wallet to interact with supported web browsers. It acts as a secure middle layer between your Trezor device and Trezor Suite (Web version) or other web-based wallet apps.

🧩 What is Trezor Bridge?

🔹 A background application that runs on your computer
 🔹 Allows your browser to recognize and communicate with your Trezor device
 🔹 Essential when using Trezor Web Suite or third-party browser apps (like MyEtherWallet)

📌 Without Trezor Bridge, your browser won’t detect your Trezor device unless you're using the desktop version of Trezor Suite.
