WalletConnect

Bitget mobile wallet now supports WalletConnect.

WalletConnect is an open protocol that connects wallets and DApps (Web3 applications). It uses a bridge server to establish a remote connection between two applications and/or devices, allowing them to scan a QR code to establish the connection and start communication.

  • Chains officially supported by WalletConnect: Cosmos, Ethereum, Solana, Near, StarkNet More: WalletConnect Multi-Chain
  • Bitget Wallet now supports: Ethereum, Cosmos

Integration steps

  1. Register and activate WalletConnect service
  2. Install WalletConnect SDK on the frontend
  3. Parameter configuration and initialization
  4. Wallet app QR code verification

Development Example

Custom Configuration of Wallet Information

js
import { createWeb3Modal, defaultConfig } from "@web3modal/ethers/react";

// 1. Get projectId
const projectId = "YOUR_PROJECT_ID";

// 2. Set chains
const mainnet = {
  chainId: 1,
  name: "Ethereum",
  currency: "ETH",
  explorerUrl: "https://etherscan.io",
  rpcUrl: "https://cloudflare-eth.com",

// 3. Create a metadata object
const metadata = {
  name: "My Website",
  description: "My Website description",
  url: "https://mywebsite.com", // origin must match your domain & subdomain
  icons: ["https://avatars.mywebsite.com/"],

// 4. Create Ethers config
const ethersConfig = defaultConfig({

  enableInjected: true, // true by default
  enableCoinbase: true, // true by default
  rpcUrl: "...", // used for the Coinbase SDK
  defaultChainId: 1, // used for the Coinbase SDK
