Bitget Wallet, a prominent Web3 non-custodial wallet provider, has unveiled OmniConnect, a software development kit (SDK) that facilitates seamless integration of Telegram Mini-Apps with over 500 blockchain networks, including major platforms such as Solana, TON, and all EVM-compatible chains. This latest development marks a significant step in bridging Web3 technologies and the popular messaging platform Telegram, which boasts over a billion users globally.
With OmniConnect, developers can now enable Telegram Mini-Apps to interact with Bitget Wallet for conducting transactions and signing across multiple blockchain ecosystems. Previously, Telegram Mini-Apps could only interact with the TON network, limiting their capabilities. The introduction of OmniConnect removes these barriers, expanding the reach of Mini-Apps across a vast array of blockchain networks and enabling multichain functionality.
The OmniConnect SDK is not just limited to Telegram Mini-Apps. Bitget Wallet has plans to extend its integration to plugins, mobile apps, and web platforms, providing an even wider scope of applications for developers and users. This strategic move is aimed at supporting Bitget Wallet’s broader goal of bridging the gap between Web2 and Web3, offering an easier and more efficient way for Telegram users to engage with decentralised technologies.
Alvin Kan, COO of Bitget Wallet, emphasised the importance of this advancement in Web3 accessibility: “Previously, Telegram Mini-Apps could only interact with the TON network, which created challenges for engaging with other public chains. Bitget Wallet’s OmniConnect is designed to bridge this gap, making it possible to seamlessly interact with multiple blockchains. We are thrilled to invite more developers and blockchain ecosystems to collaborate and contribute to building a more open and thriving Web3 environment on Telegram.”
The launch of OmniConnect aligns with Bitget Wallet’s broader vision of connecting social platforms to Web3. By simplifying interactions with blockchain ecosystems, OmniConnect offers an accessible entry point for users who may have had little to no prior experience with decentralised technologies. This initiative is part of Bitget Wallet’s Onchain Layer strategy, which seeks to onboard a billion users from social platforms like Telegram into the Web3 world.
Bitget Wallet has already forged deep connections within both the Telegram and TON ecosystems. The company has collaborated with key projects such as Tomarket, Catizen, and Yescoin, and was the first to extend MPC (multi-party computation) keyless wallet capabilities to the TON mainnet. Its other achievements include the development of trading bots for Telegram, enabling multi-chain trading, and providing zero-gas fee experiences for TON DApps. These innovations have positioned Bitget Wallet as a vital player within the Telegram ecosystem.
In August 2024 alone, Bitget Wallet recorded nearly two million downloads, making it the most downloaded wallet globally across both the App Store and Google Play. With over 30 million users worldwide, Bitget Wallet is dedicated to simplifying Web3 adoption through its MPC keyless wallet, which offers secure access through familiar methods such as email, Apple ID, Google accounts, and Telegram.
Bitget Wallet continues to enhance its services, aiming to become a gateway for mass Web3 adoption. By integrating trading and social features, it is paving the way for users to easily access DeFi, blockchain games, and other elements of the crypto ecosystem without the technical barriers often associated with Web3 technologies.
