Official Trust Wallet Website & Browser Extension**
Official Website: 👉 ** This is the official Trust Wallet website where you can download the wallet app and access official resources.
The official website provides links to:
Always ensure the URL is exactly trustwallet.com before downloading anything. Many scam sites mimic the name but are not official. ([trust-tools.com][2])
Trust Wallet is a self-custody cryptocurrency wallet that allows users to securely store, send, receive, swap, and manage digital assets including tokens, NFTs, and decentralized applications (dApps). It supports a wide range of blockchains and provides security by giving you full control of your private keys. ([Google Sites][3])
The wallet is non-custodial — meaning your private keys and recovery phrases are only stored on your device, not on a centralized server. This increases security and privacy compared with hosted wallets. ([Google Sites][4])
The Trust Wallet browser extension is a plugin you install in your web browser (Chrome, Brave, Edge, Opera) that lets you interact with Web3 applications — decentralized exchanges, NFT marketplaces, DeFi platforms, and other blockchain services — directly from the browser. ([Google Sites][4])
To install it safely:
IMPORTANT: If any link redirects you to a site that isn’t under trustwallet.com or an official verified extension store, it may be a scam. ([trust-tools.com][2])
When you install a browser extension, especially from the Chrome Web Store, you might notice a long alphanumeric string in the extension’s URL — e.g., something like:
egjidjbpglichdcondbcbdnbeeppgdph
This is not a malicious special character — it’s simply the unique ID assigned by the browser’s extension store. Every legitimate extension has a unique identifier like this. It is not related to the Trust Wallet branding itself. ([Reddit][5])
However — and this is crucial — just because the extension ID looks legitimate doesn’t automatically mean the extension is genuine. There have been cases (including in late 2025) where compromised or fraudulent extension versions appeared with IDs that seemed legitimate but were malicious. ([BleepingComputer][6])
Therefore:
Once installed from the official source:
This makes it easier to sign transactions and interact with decentralized apps without exposing your keys to third parties. ([Google Sites][4])
📌 Non-custodial security: Trust Wallet does not hold your funds or private keys — you control them. ([Google Sites][4])
📌 Never share your recovery phrase. Anyone with the recovery phrase can access your funds.
📌 Beware of fake sites: Several third-party fake sites or cloned downloads pretending to be Trust Wallet have existed online. ([trust-tools.com][2])
📌 Extension vulnerabilities: In late 2025, certain versions of the official Trust Wallet Chrome extension were found to be compromised or subject to security incidents — leading to thefts in some cases. ([BleepingComputer][6]) Always ensure you’re using the latest updated version and refer to official announcements on Trust Wallet’s website or trusted communication channels.
📌 No extension is immune to risk. Extensions interact with your browser environment — which can expose them to unique threats. Always follow best security practices and keep software updated.
✔️ Only install via:
Never install an extension from a random blog, third-party website, or search link — those can be phishing or malware.
