Getting Started with WalletConnect™

Understanding WalletConnect™

. What is WalletConnect™?

WalletConnect™ is an open-source protocol that facilitates the connection between mobile wallets and decentralized applications (dApps). It uses QR codes and deep links to establish a secure connection without exposing your private keys.

. Why Use WalletConnect™?

By using WalletConnect™, you can interact with dApps on your desktop or browser-based interfaces while keeping your private keys securely stored on your mobile wallet. This reduces the risk of exposing your private keys to potential online threats.

Setting Up WalletConnect™

. Choose a Compatible Wallet

To use WalletConnect™, you need a mobile wallet that supports the protocol. Popular wallets like MetaMask, Trust Wallet, Rainbow, and many others are compatible with WalletConnect™.

. Install Your Chosen Wallet

If you don't already have a compatible wallet, download and install it from the official app store on your iOS or Android device. Ensure you download the app from a trusted source to avoid counterfeit versions.
