What wallets and authentication options do Autheo dApps support?
AutheoID's post-quantum signature path uses NIST-standardized algorithms (FIPS 203/204/205) finalized in August 2024, ensuring forward security for user credentials.
Autheo supports the full EVM wallet stack including MetaMask and WalletConnect-compatible wallets, plus AutheoID, the network's native identity layer. AutheoID adds passkey-style authentication and post-quantum signatures on top of standard wallet flows, so developers can offer both familiar Web3 onboarding and a more secure primary path.
Understand the broader Autheo platform
This answer covers one part of the Autheo ecosystem. To understand how this capability fits into the full platform, start with the core Autheo overview and architecture pages.
Standard EVM Wallets
Because Autheo's EVM adapter speaks the same JSON-RPC dialect as Ethereum, any EIP-1193 wallet works out of the box. That includes MetaMask, Rabby, Coinbase Wallet, Trust Wallet, and any WalletConnect v2 client. Developers add Autheo as a custom network and existing wallet UX flows continue to function with no library changes.
AutheoID Native Identity
AutheoID is the network's native identity primitive, designed for dApps that want to move beyond seed-phrase friction. It supports passkey login, social recovery, and post-quantum signatures using NIST-standardized algorithms. AutheoID is integrated through a TypeScript SDK with React hooks, so adding it to a dApp typically takes under an hour.
Choosing Between Wallets and AutheoID
DeFi and power-user dApps generally lead with traditional wallets because users expect them. Consumer dApps, gaming, and enterprise applications increasingly lead with AutheoID because it removes seed phrases and meets stricter compliance bars. Most production dApps on Autheo support both paths from a single SDK call.
Key Statistics
Expert Perspective
“Passkey-based authentication removes seed phrases from the user mental model entirely, and FIDO2 compliance means it works with hardware keys too. The developer integration is surprisingly lightweight.
