## What it is
Sphere is a Web3 wallet and agent platform for the Unicity network, combining a crypto wallet with direct messages, group chat (Nostr/NIP-29), and a marketplace. It implements the Sphere Connect protocol so external dApps can connect via iframe or popup and request wallet operations like send and sign.

## Use cases
- manage crypto tokens and balances on the Unicity network
- send and receive low-cost token transfers with payment notifications
- chat privately over Nostr and join NIP-29 group channels
- connect a dApp to a wallet to request signing and sending transactions
- embed external dApps as iframe agents inside the wallet
- share interactive app links in DMs via unicity-connect:// deep links
- manage seed phrases and switch between wallets
- track real-time market data for tokens

## When to choose
- you need a self-custody wallet integrated with the Unicity network
- you are building a dApp that wants to connect to Sphere for wallet operations
- you want messaging and payments combined in one agent platform
- you want to run external dApps as embedded agents inside a wallet

## When to avoid
- you need a wallet for Ethereum, Bitcoin, or other major chains rather than the Unicity network
- you need a hardware wallet or cold-storage solution
- you require a formally audited or licensed codebase - the repository has no license
- you only need a lightweight browser extension wallet
