Launch of WalletConnect 3.0, upgrading from a connection protocol to a comprehensive Web3 communication platform
WalletConnect recently officially launched its disruptive version 3.0, marking its strategic upgrade from a single "wallet connection" protocol to a comprehensive "Web3 communication network." The traditional WalletConnect mainly addressed the peer-to-peer linking issue between dApps and wallets, while the core of version 3.0 introduces a decentralized messaging network. This network not only supports traditional transaction requests and signatures but also enables bidirectional, asynchronous, cross-chain message communication between wallets and dApps, and even between different dApps. This means developers can build more complex and interactive applications, for example: wallets can proactively push transaction status notifications, airdrop information, or governance proposals to users; game dApps can instantly push in-game events to users' wallet interfaces. This upgrade greatly enriches the dimensions of the Web3 user experience, laying the foundational communication infrastructure for building a truly interconnected and interoperable application ecosystem, and is viewed by the industry as a key infrastructure iteration driving Web3 towards mainstream applications. #WalletConnect
