Only a phone? Most of web3 now fits in your pocket.
A phone is the device most of the world comes online with, and web3 builders know it. Your phone can hold a wallet, read a passport chip to prove a fact, relay data for a network over Bluetooth, and run full apps in a wallet browser. You can do a whole route without ever opening a laptop.

Free perp points on a phone app
Some venues count phone activity extra, and start free.
How it works
Our free perp DEX points Unlock lists venues that pay for showing up, including Dreamcash, which counts phone trades double toward its weekly pool. Trading itself is risky; the points start free.
- Possible to build
A phone-first app you own
Mini apps run inside social feeds. Yours could be one.
How it works
Deploy a ready-made app from your own wallet on Deployr, from a phone, and share it as a link. Or pitch the one you wish existed on the Build Board.
Skip these. Skip apps that ask for full control of your phone, accessibility permissions or your seed phrase. Install only from your official app store.
Straight answers
Can I use web3 with only a phone?
Yes. Wallet apps, identity proofs, DePIN apps and most web apps all work on a phone, many through the wallet's built-in browser.
Is it safe to keep a wallet on my phone?
It can be, with a screen lock, the seed phrase on paper (never in your photos), and apps only from the official store.
Can I earn from a phone with no money?
Routes like Nodle start free. Nothing is guaranteed, and rewards vary over time.
