The Future of WalletConnect: More Than Just Connection, but the 'Glue' of the Web3 Ecosystem
If WalletConnect's past was about solving the 'connection' issue, its future is to become the 'super glue' of the Web3 ecosystem, breaking down more scenario barriers.
From the latest developments, it is breaking through in three directions: first, seamless switching across devices, where operations initiated on the computer can be continued directly on the mobile wallet without needing to reconnect. For example, when browsing NFTs on the PC, the mobile wallet can synchronize the favorites in real-time; second, multi-chain account aggregation, allowing users to manage different accounts across multiple chains within a single session, eliminating the need to switch networks repeatedly for cross-chain asset operations; third, smart authorization management, allowing users to preset authorization periods and scopes of action, such as restricting a certain DApp to only view assets without initiating transfers, further enhancing account security.
Behind these upgrades is WalletConnect's shift from a 'tool protocol' to 'ecosystem infrastructure'. It not only provides a smoother user experience but also helps developers reduce the difficulty of cross-chain and cross-device development, accelerating the scalable implementation of Web3 applications.
It is foreseeable that with the realization of these functions, WalletConnect will further lower the entry barrier for using Web3, encouraging more ordinary people to step into the decentralized digital world and truly achieve the ecological vision of 'connection as a service'.
