Using Applications
Learn how to connect to decentralized applications (dApps) using Tholos and WalletConnect.
This guide explains how to connect to a decentralized application (dApp) using Tholos. For this example, we will demonstrate the process with Aave, but the same steps apply to other dApps that support WalletConnect.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Go to the dApp
Navigate to the dApp’s website where you want to perform your transaction (e.g., Aave).
Step 2: Open the “Connect Wallet” Option
Look for and click the “Connect Wallet” button on the dApp’s interface.
Step 3: Select WalletConnect
From the list of available wallet connection methods, select “WalletConnect.”
Step 4: Copy the WalletConnect URL
The dApp will generate a WalletConnect URL. Copy this URL to your clipboard.
Step 5: Open the Tholos Dashboard
Go to dashboard.tholos.app in your web browser and log in if you aren’t already.
Step 6: Click “Connect App”
In the Tholos dashboard, locate and click the “Connect App” button.
Step 7: Paste the WalletConnect URL
In the popup or connection interface, paste the WalletConnect URL you copied earlier and click “Connect.”
Step 8: Perform Desired Actions on the dApp
Once connected, return to the dApp to perform the action you intended (e.g., lending, borrowing, or staking on Aave).
Step 9: Review and Approve on Mobile
Use your mobile device to review and approve the transaction. Ensure all details are correct before confirming.
Notes
- This process is secure and utilizes WalletConnect to establish a connection between the dApp and Tholos.
- Ensure you are only connecting to trusted dApps to protect your assets.
By following these steps, you can seamlessly connect and interact with your favorite dApps using Tholos.
