Catenaa, Monday, November 24, 2025-The Algorand Foundation and Pera Wallet have launched a decentralized passkey manager, offering users a secure, self-custodied alternative to traditional login apps.
The system, based on Algorand’s Liquid Auth standard, allows passkeys to be stored directly in crypto wallets for seamless web logins.
Liquid Auth eliminates reliance on Apple, Google, or other centralized password managers, letting users maintain full control over their credentials. The open-source framework is initially available to Pera Wallet users on iOS and Android but can be adopted by other wallets and blockchains.
The passkey manager integrates Web2 login capabilities with Web3 wallets, enabling secure access to websites without email-password combinations.
Pera Wallet engineering leads emphasized that user credentials remain private, locally stored, and protected by private keys, with no risk to funds held in the wallet.
The implementation represents the first phase of Liquid Auth, which also supports decentralized connectivity between wallets and decentralized applications, positioning it as a standard for self-sovereign identity and privacy in the online ecosystem. Users can manage passkeys freely while retaining security, transparency, and convenience.
The launch reflects Algorand’s broader mission to provide scalable, secure, and transparent infrastructure, enabling developers and enterprises to build applications with tamper-proof credentials, instant payments, and on-chain verification.
Liquid Auth is available now at no cost. Additional information and wallet downloads are accessible via liquidauth.com and perawallet.app/download.
