OpenAuth is a groundbreaking open-source project that seamlessly integrates social logins with wallets on decentralized applications (DApps). Built on Lit Protocol's robust infrastructure, OpenAuth delivers a secure, user-friendly experience that prevents fund and access fragmentation while fully embracing decentralization principles.
In a decentralized world, accessibility shouldn't compromise security or ownership. OpenAuth embodies this philosophy, offering a solution that combines the convenience of social logins with the security and control of decentralized wallets.
As an open-source project, OpenAuth aligns with Web3's core ethos of decentralization, transparency, and community governance. This approach ensures its relevance in a rapidly evolving technological landscape.
Key benefits of OpenAuth's open-source nature include:
Interoperability and Zero Lock-in: Enables the creation of open standards and easy integration with other projects.
Cost Reduction and Accessibility: No licensing fees, reducing adoption costs for developers and projects of all sizes.
Customization and Integration Flexibility: Developers can create specialized versions for niche use cases.
Enhanced Security and Trust Through Transparency: Global scrutiny of the codebase fosters a robust security ecosystem.
Community-Driven Innovation: Leverages collective expertise for rapid feature development and problem-solving.
Long-term Sustainability: Ensures the project's longevity through community support and contributions.
We provide a customizable widget modal and an in-dApp Wallet Manager, allowing developers to tailor authentication pop-ups and the wallet interface to their brand and dapp needs.
We offer a Single Sign-On (SSO) feature that maps email addresses as unique identifiers. This feature simplifies the login process and ensures the same address is generated and used, enhancing the reusability of user addresses.
We are backward compatible with the Lit Protocol, allowing existing Lit users to use the same account across different platforms and apps without needing a new address.
We use the Lit Protocol’s MPC network as the default session key post-authentication. These temporary session keys confirm transactions without continuous user signatures, improving user experience.
We are natively integrated with WalletConnect, enabling access to Aarc user addresses on dApps without direct OpenAuth API/Widget incorporation. This unifies all authentication processes onto a single screen.
Secure User Onboarding
Unified Account Management: OpenAuth simplifies wallet creation and management by using familiar Web2 authentication methods like Gmail, making blockchain interactions more accessible.
Enhanced Security with PKPs: OpenAuth uses Lit Protocol's DKG to increase security, preventing single-node access to the full private key.
Key Rotation: OpenAuth has a key rotation mechanism that regularly updates key shares, reducing potential vulnerabilities.
WalletConnect Integration: OpenAuth extends user access within the Web3 ecosystem, allowing connections to various dApps.
Interoperable User Addresses: OpenAuth provides a single public address across services, reducing fragmentation and simplifying asset management.
Customizable Interfaces: OpenAuth offers customizable modals and in-app wallet managers, allowing developers to tailor the aesthetics and functions of their dApps.
Tailored Security and Transaction Settings: OpenAuth enables customization of signing and authentication processes with Lit Actions.
Support for Multiple Providers: OpenAuth supports various OAuth providers, ensuring a unified login experience.
Advanced Identity Orchestration: OpenAuth aids in creating a unified identity, connecting user authentication methods to a single account address.
