Title: Bitcoin Wallets that allows to connect to websites - Web3 wallets
Post by: bitmover on July 11, 2024, 08:50:40 PM
Since long ago you can connect to websites using metamask or  some other EVM wallets.

But recently I noticed that you can now connect using your bitcoin wallets as well. Some wallets allows this. Accorgin to unisat.io, these wallets allows bitcoin connect:

UniSat Wallet
Xverse Wallet
Leather Wallet
OKX Wallet
Bitget Wallet
Phantom Wallet
Magic Eden
Enkrypt

I just use Phantom, and used UniSat a few times. Have you tried them?

I think the question should be, or the question I have is, are there any smart contract on the bitcoin network to interact with when you connect any of those mentioned wallet to any website? And I think the answer (obviously) is no, so I essence, it's good if we understand that when you connect any of the mentioned wallet to any WEB3 site, you are not connected to a bitcoin network, but you are connected to the network (EVM  and NON - EVM(example - Solana) that  that WEB3 site supports.

There are no smart contracts running on the bitcoin network, so of what use is it connecting a bitcoin wallet to a web3 platform, when you can't make payments, or buy/sell original bitcoin in a decentralized and automatic way or form  using smart contracts?

I probably read it too fast when I'm reminded of that guy that's popular with 'Hey, Hey, Hey' ;D

When it comes to the wallets on the list, I'm only familiar and I only used it to connect with Solana platforms. I wasn't even aware they support the Bitcoin network. It's actually nice that they support Taproot address as well.
