Solana's Blinks technology, Blockchain Links, aims to simplify users' Web3 interactions by triggering wallet transactions directly through links. Blinks allow users to bypass the traditional web access steps and perform on-chain operations directly via URLs, primarily supporting X platform (Twitter) at present. This technology not only enhances transaction convenience but also ensures security through Dialect's registry verification. Blinks have tremendous application potential, especially in driving the widespread adoption of Web3, as they can integrate into various platforms, including Telegram and Discord, and are expected to become a crucial bridge connecting Web2 and Web3.

Solana's launch of Blinks has sparked heated discussions. With just a link, Blinks can immediately trigger a transaction preview in the wallet. But can Blinks truly become a catalyst for widespread adoption in Web3? Let's explore further. Blinks, short for Blockchain Links, is a technology that converts on-chain operations into frontend pages and is one of the applications of Solana Actions. Traditional interactions require users to first enter a website and then interact with Web3 wallets through buttons. Blinks, on the other hand, can bypass the step of entering a webpage, allowing users to perform on-chain operations directly through a link. The operation consists of URL schemes, GET routes, and POST routes to the operation provider. Currently, Blinks is in a social experiment phase, supporting only X platform (Twitter) plugins. However, it is believed that more applications will be available in the near future. Users can receive and process blockchain transaction requests in real-time on the X platform. For example, they can complete a payment request or smart contract signing request directly on Twitter without the need to switch to other platforms. By sharing Blinks on the X platform, information about blockchain activities or applications can be quickly disseminated, making Blinks a powerful tool. Due to Blinks' features, it has become a tool for rebates. One of the largest DEX platforms on the Solana network, Raydium, has started supporting a 1% rebate for all currencies through Blinks. Traditional rebate links usually require users to enter a webpage, which may be disconnected from the user's on-chain actions and timing. Blinks reduces this disconnection, making the rebate process smoother and more efficient. Let's take a look at the current applications of Blinks on the X platform. While enjoying convenience, security issues are equally important. In the Web3 environment, convenient payments may also mean a higher risk of scams. The official team has clearly considered this, so projects using Blinks need to pass the Dialect registry review to ensure they are open-source. On one hand, more open-source projects will promote the prosperity of the Solana ecosystem. On the other hand, it is inevitable that new scams may arise, and specific security issues need further exploration in practice. From the current development perspective, supporting only the X platform is far from sufficient, especially considering that the majority of X platform users are on mobile devices. If Blinks can truly be integrated into platforms like Telegram, Discord, which have a large number of Web2 users, and establish links between applications and wallets (similar to TON but with broader applications than TON), it will be a killer application and a bridge between Web2 and Web3. As the official documentation states, "this allows the ability for on-chain interactions to be achieved on any web interface that can display URLs," which is the ultimate goal. However, Blinks provides a more convenient payment method, an innovative payment method worth trying. Currently, the main user-active platforms for Web3, especially memes, are on X, so choosing X as the first stop is undoubtedly correct, at least sparking waves in the meme-rich Solana network. Connecting to the X platform is just the first step; the future development is more anticipated. The ultimate goal is for all platforms that can display links and QR codes to support Solana network payments, so the potential of Blinks is enormous. Imagine inviting your friends to play with you or sending money to your family to buy bubble tea through QR codes and links on WeChat. What will happen when all the things that WeChat mini apps can do occur in Web3? That's the revolution brought by Solana Blinks. Through Solana Blinks, you can easily complete on-chain interactions on X through QR codes and links, such as sniping dogs, wallet signatures, initiating GameFi challenges, fundraising, without the need for cumbersome links and wallet signing procedures. The advantage of Ton Chain is its ability to smoothly integrate Web2 users into the complex Web3 network through mini apps in communication software, but it is limited to Telegram. In contrast, Solana Blink is applicable to "any communication software" as long as it is through QR codes and links, opening the bridge between Web2 and Web3. As a stimulus point in a bull market, Solana Blinks can definitely create a market frenzy. Phantom, Backpack, and Solflare native wallets already support Blinks and can be downloaded. Here, we use the example of the Phantom wallet. Settings - Experimental Features - Enable Solana Actions on X.com. Directly enter the official website of the Blinks-supported application, copy the above URL, and post it on the X platform. Here, we use Jupiter's URL as an example. When you turn on the wallet plugin switch and refresh the page, you will see the payment interface. 1. Refer to 2. Put the open-source code into for review. There are also some reference codes in the Github example. 3. Testing: Enter your Blinks in the search bar at https://www.dial.to/, and the application interface will appear. Here, we will post the Blink on the X platform on Dial.After that, more supported channels were discovered. For example, Google via TipLink, through experiments, it was found to be a hosted wallet created through a Google account, with one wallet address corresponding to one Google account, which is user-friendly for Web2 users and brings wallet and application integration one step closer. Even directly through <br>4. After confirming your Blinks, you need to proceed with <br>. After completing these steps, your Blinks application will be able to smoothly access the X platform, providing users with a convenient payment experience. Let's also look forward to more applications from Blinks!
