What is WalletConnect?
WalletConnect is an open protocol for connecting decentralized applications (DApps) to cryptocurrency wallets. It enables users to interact with DApps from their mobile or desktop wallets. By simply scanning a QR code or entering a URI, WalletConnect establishes a connection between the wallet and the DApp. Learn more about WalletConnect on the official website.
