Igra Labs Goes Live on Tangem
@Igra_Labs has integrated with @Tangem, bringing Kaspa-native decentralised finance to more than one million hardware wallet users. The move gives $IGRA holders access to the Igra apps ecosystem while keeping private keys secured in cold storage, removing a trade-off that has historically pushed DeFi users toward less secure software wallets.
The integration is built on WalletConnect, delivered through Tangem app version 6.1.3. WalletConnect is an open protocol that facilitates interaction between decentralised applications and crypto wallets, ensuring that private keys stay securely stored on the hardware wallet itself. For Tangem users, that means approving transactions via NFC tap rather than exposing keys to an internet-connected device.
What the Integration Means for Kaspa DeFi
Igra Network is the EVM-compatible execution layer built on top of Kaspa's proof-of-work BlockDAG. Igra Labs has opened public access to Igra Network, a decentralised EVM-compatible execution layer built on Kaspa's proof-of-work BlockDAG.The network delivers over 3,000 transactions per second with sub-second inclusion latency, powered by Kaspa's 10-block-per-second BlockDAG architecture and parallel transaction sequencing.
By connecting to Tangem through WalletConnect, $IGRA holders can now interact with decentralised apps on Igra Network without moving assets to a hot wallet first. Tangem's collaboration with WalletConnect is aimed at providing an intuitive and secure Web3 experience, streamlining wallet-to-dApp interactions while guaranteeing user safety across DeFi and blockchain applications.
Tangem's advanced technology is backed by a Common Criteria EAL6+ certification, the same level of chip protection used in passports. That security baseline now extends to Kaspa-native DeFi for the first time, as the Igra and Tangem integration marks a meaningful step in making cold-storage-secured DeFi access a practical reality rather than a technical workaround.
