How Does WalletConnect Work?
Establishing a Connection
1. Initiating the Connection:
When a user wants to interact with a DApp, they will be presented with a WalletConnect option.
The DApp displays a QR code or a deep link for the user to scan or click.
2. Scanning the QR Code:
Using a WalletConnect-compatible mobile wallet, the user scans the QR code displayed by the DApp.
Alternatively, if the user is on a mobile device, they can click the deep link, which will open their wallet app directly.
Secure Communication
1. Pairing Session:
Upon scanning the QR code or clicking the deep link, the wallet and the DApp establish a pairing session.
This session is encrypted, ensuring that all data transmitted between the wallet and the DApp remains secure and private.
2. Transaction Signing:
When the user initiates a transaction on the DApp, such as a token transfer or a swap, the transaction details are sent to the wallet through the secure WalletConnect session.
The user can review the transaction details in their wallet app and approve or reject the transaction.
