# The Backend Web3Wallet object

The Backend `Web3Wallet` object describes a Web3 wallet address. The address can be used as a proof of identification for users.

Web3 addresses must be verified to ensure that they can be assigned to their rightful owners. The verification is completed via Web3 wallet browser extensions, such as [Metamask](https://metamask.io/), [Coinbase Wallet](https://www.coinbase.com/wallet), and [OKX Wallet](https://www.okx.com/help/section/faq-web3-wallet). The `Web3Wallet3` object holds all the necessary state around the verification process.
