What Is WalletConnect?

WalletConnect is an open-source protocol that makes it easy for crypto wallets to connect with decentralized apps (DApps). Instead of relying on browser extensions or copy-pasting wallet addresses, WalletConnect lets you link your wallet to a DApp with a quick QR code scan or deep link. WalletConnect works across many blockchains, and aims to make Web3 more user-friendly and secure.

Originally created to address fragmented and vulnerable DApp-wallet interactions, WalletConnect has grown into a protocol and a network that supports millions of users and thousands of applications.

How WalletConnect Works
At its foundation, WalletConnect acts as a communication layer that enables wallet applications to interact with DApps without exposing sensitive information, such as private keys.

The protocol supports encrypted messaging through a session established by scanning a QR code or clicking a deep link. Once connected, users can approve or reject transactions directly from their wallets, which remain in their full control throughout the session.

WalletConnect supports multiple blockchain networks, including Ethereum, Solana, Cosmos, Polkadot, and Bitcoin. #WTC#
