🔐 What Trust Wallet™ Extension Is

Trust Wallet Extension is a browser‑based, non‑custodial crypto wallet that lets you manage your crypto assets and interact directly with decentralized applications (dApps), decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms, and Web3 services right from your browser — without needing a separate app. ([Google Sites][1])

It brings the core features of the popular Trust Wallet mobile app into a desktop environment, turning your browser into a secure gateway to the decentralized internet. ([Google Sites][1])

🔑 Core Features

🧠 Non‑Custodial & Private

  • You hold your own private keys — Trust Wallet never stores or accesses them. ([Google Sites][1])
  • No sign‑ups, no KYC, and no centralized server storing personal data. ([Google Sites][1])
  • Private keys are encrypted locally on your device. ([TrustWllt][2])

🌐 Web3 & dApp Access

  • Instantly connect to decentralized apps like DEXs (Uniswap, PancakeSwap), NFT marketplaces, DeFi protocols, blockchain games, and more. ([TrustWllt][2])
  • One‑click wallet connections make interacting with Web3 smooth and intuitive. ([TrustWllt][2])

🌉 Multi‑Chain Support

  • Manage assets across 100+ blockchains, including Ethereum, BNB Chain, Polygon, Solana, Bitcoin, and many others. ([Trust Wallet][3])
  • Support for thousands of tokens directly in the wallet. ([Google Sites][1])

🔄 Built‑In Swaps & DeFi Tools

  • Swap tokens directly inside the extension using integrated DEX aggregation features. ([TrustWllt][2])
  • Participate in DeFi activities like staking, lending, or liquidity providing, depending on the platform. ([Google Sites][1])

🖼 NFTs & Portfolio

  • View, receive, and manage NFTs (non‑fungible tokens) supported across networks. ([Google Sites][1])
  • Keep track of your portfolio with balances, history, and asset details in one place. ([TrustWllt][2])

🔗 Cross‑Platform Integration

  • Import your existing Trust Wallet from mobile using your recovery phrase. ([Google Sites][1])
  • Some builds offer QR or WalletConnect support for syncing across devices. ([trust-walts-extn.mobirisesite.com][4])

📦 Supported Browsers

The extension works on Chrome, Brave, Edge, Opera, and other Chromium‑based browsers. ([Google Sites][1])

🔐 Security Considerations

While the extension is designed to be secure and non‑custodial, browser wallets inherently carry higher risk than hardware or fully offline wallets:

  • Browser environments can be targeted by phishing, malware, or malicious extensions if not carefully managed.
  • Recent reports have highlighted security incidents with some Trust Wallet extension versions leading to user losses — emphasizing the importance of installing only from the official store, updating to patched versions, and limiting the assets stored in a browser wallet. ([The Times of India][5])

🧠 Who It’s For

Ideal for:

  • DeFi users who want quick access to dApps without switching devices.
  • NFT collectors managing assets across blockchains.
  • Crypto users who prefer non‑custodial wallets and full control.

Not ideal for:

  • Storing large long‑term holdings — hardware wallets are safer for that purpose.
  • Using unverified or scam Web3 sites without careful checking.

🛡 Where to Install

Always download or install the extension from official sources like the Chrome Web Store or the official Trust Wallet website to avoid fake or malicious clones. ([Chrome Web Store][6])
