DApp Connections

Before you begin

DApp Connections makes more sense when domain verification, connection request, account selection, signature review, disconnecting are considered as parts of one on-chain workflow. When a request is unclear, stop before signing or transferring and verify the network and on-chain record from a trusted path.

During real use, confirm the active network and account first, then verify the object, scope and expected outcome related to domain verification. Any action that changes assets, permissions or account state deserves a full review before confirmation.

For connection request, prefer information that can be independently checked: the wallet transaction summary, the relevant network explorer, an explicit contract address or an official product page. The goal is not to memorize more terminology, but to make each action explainable, verifiable and reviewable.

When account selection is involved, separate display data from on-chain facts. Names, icons and fiat estimates may come from external data sources, while balances, transaction state and approvals should be verified on the selected network.

For signature review, retain the transaction hash or other useful reference when appropriate. On-chain transactions generally cannot be reversed unilaterally by a wallet, which makes pre-broadcast checks of the address, network, amount and permissions especially important.

Finally, consider disconnecting. Third-party DApps, smart contracts and network services can introduce technical, operational and market risk. Unclear signatures, unnecessarily broad approvals, or any page asking for a seed phrase or private key are reasons to stop and re-check the request.
