We are excited to announce that Vee.Finance has integrated WalletConnect into our platform!

Users can use their favorite mobile wallets that support the WalletConnect protocol, such as Trust Wallet, imToken, and Coin98, directly to access Vee.Finance on desktop or mobile device’s browser.

The new add-on will provide a better user experience for users, as they are able to use Vee.Finance by just scanning a QR code or choosing a wallet on mobile browsers, no need to install any browser extension. This will serve as a complement to our existing wallet support for Metamask.

What is WalletConnect?

WalletConnect is an open protocol for connecting desktop DApps to mobile Wallets using end-to-end encryption by scanning a QR code. The user can interact with any DApp without comprising their private keys and will be notified to sign any transaction requests on their mobile.

WalletConnect uses a Bridge server to relay the messages without having access to any of its contents. The contents are encrypted using the session data shared by the QR code between the desktop and mobile.
