What are Blockchain Links? (Blinks)

What are Blockchain Links (Solana ‘Blinks’)?

Blockchain Links (Blinks) are a technology developed by Dialect that enables users to interact with blockchain transactions through URLs. These links can be shared across platforms and unfurled into full interactive experiences by compatible clients. Blinks detect these Action URLs and render them into actionable interfaces within environments such as wallets and web applications.

Key Features

• Interactive URLs: Blinks transform Action URLs into interactive experiences on platforms like X

• Seamless Integration: Compatible with Solana wallets like Phantom, Backpack, and Solflare, with the new Dialect SDK, in new platforms like Webflow, Shopify, Meta, Etc.

• Enhanced User Experience: Users can perform Solana transactions directly from notifications or web links to easily acquire customers where they live.

Use Cases
