WalletConnect is an open-source protocol that allows decentralized applications (dApps) to connect with cryptocurrency wallets securely and without the need for browser extensions. It is very popular in the Web3 ecosystem for facilitating interaction between dApps and mobile or desktop wallets.
🔑 What does WalletConnect do?
WalletConnect acts as a bridge between:
• A dApp (for example: Uniswap, OpenSea, Lens, etc.)
• And a compatible wallet (like: MetaMask, Trust Wallet, Rainbow, Backpack, etc.)
This allows:
• To sign transactions securely.
• To use decentralized applications from your mobile.
• To keep your private keys out of the browser.
⸻
🔧 How does it work?
1. The dApp generates a QR code or a deep link.
2. You open your wallet and scan that QR or click on the link.
3. The wallet establishes a secure connection and asks you to confirm.
4. You can interact with the dApp (view balances, sign, make swaps, etc.)
