Bitski Integrates with Polygon To Onboard Next 100M Users to Web3

The Bitski Wallet is integrating with Polygon to help make the process of getting started in the web3 space much easier. The world of web3 is expanding rapidly. More people are looking to join the decentralized economy, and more creators and brands are launching exciting new blockchain games, ideating new forms of loyalty programs, or pushing the boundaries of digital collectibles. However, onboarding new users into this space can still be challenging, especially for those who need to become more familiar with cryptocurrencies or blockchain technology.

About the integration

The integration of the Bitski Wallet with the Polygon network brings together two powerful technologies that can help onboard new users to web3. Polygon Labs develops high-performance scaling solutions that allow for fast, low-cost transactions, with a rich ecosystem spanning social platforms and games Lens Protocol, Square Enix, Neowiz, Plai Labs, Tilting Point, Playtika & Animoca. Bitski Wallet provides a user-friendly interface that simplifies the onboarding process for new users to onboard the next 100 million users in web3.  

This development brings the rich Polygon ecosystem to the Bitski Wallet, a simple and secure way to access web3 and own digital assets. The Bitski Wallet can be set up with an email and password, or users can import their existing self-custody wallet.

The Bitski Wallet integration with the Polygon network will be available on the Bitski iOS app and browser extension, allowing users seamless switching across devices. The Polygon protocol is one of the most accessible ways to build and use the Ethereum blockchain, and its commitment to both communities and creators is one that Bitski fully supports.

"The success of blockchain adoption depends on streamlining the user experience," said Ryan Wyatt, President of Polygon Labs. "By integrating the Bitski wallet within Polygon, we can provide users with fast and easy access to Polygon's diverse ecosystem."

What you can do

Polygon Labs partnership with Bitski will allow users to do a multitude of things across the Polygon ecosystem, including:

• Access Polygon-based wallets from other ecosystems: Bitski is launching with the ability to quickly and easily import keys from Polygon-based wallets (such as the Reddit Vault, with over 6+ million users) so that users can manage their collectibles in one place.
• Access games on Polygon with the Bitski Wallet: Bitski is bringing access to Polygon decentralized applications, focusing on games. Polygon gamers can store their digital assets within their Bitski Wallet, or in some cases, play the game within the Bitski iOS app.
• Polygon NFT Portfolio Management: Bitski is the richest way to see your Polygon NFTs, displaying images and videos.  
• Automatic network switching — Bitski will automatically switch from Ethereum to Polygon and vice versa so that you don’t have to think about it.
• Buy/Sell/Send Polygon collectibles — Bitski works closely with the leading Polygon marketplaces in the space, allowing you to quickly connect via a dApp browser and manage your NFTs.
• Polygon-game friendly —Quickly snag your favorite Polygon game assets and start using them immediately.
• Cross-Platform Support — Seamlessly toggle between desktop and mobile with your Polygon assets.
• Bitski Safe Transactions — Have no fear while you sign; Bitski will simulate transactions to let you know what is happening before you press send. The new transaction simulation feature improves user safety and security by identifying malicious contracts and pulling verified OpenSea collection information into the signing screen.

Polygon Labs is one of the leading voices in the blockchain and Ethereum ecosystem, and the Bitski team believes this will be one of the most impactful ways blockchain technology is brought to the next billion users.

In the past year, Bitski has seen over 190% growth in wallet set-up and has worked with global brands like Red Bull, Adidas, Levi’s, and more to bring web3 experiences to the masses as one of the only wallets to offer email/password login. Backed by a16z, Kindred Ventures, Galaxy Digital, and others, Bitski makes web3 accessible to everyone.
