DFZ Labs has launched a new tool—Coldlink.xyz—allowing users to connect blockchain wallet addresses to a wide range of digital and real-world identifiers to support secure and flexible identification across a variety of environments, including gaming platforms, events, and online communities without requiring wallet connections, smart contract approvals, or digital signatures—a notable departure from standard verification or delegation methods.
Currently in beta, Coldlink.xyz supports Ethereum and Solana, with plans to expand compatibility to additional Layer 1 and Layer 2 networks and add new integrations on a weekly basis. The tool is being tested by over 150 creators and organisations, including several industry leaders such as Punks DAO, NFC Lisbon, and Deadfellaz among others.
According to DFZ Labs, the system was initially developed to address challenges within its own projects but has since been expanded for broader use.

Coldlink.xyz is a verification and linking tool that allows users to associate a blockchain address with a broad set of other identifiers including but not limited to usernames, social media handles, PO box numbers, NFC tags, event ticket numbers, or custom codes.
“Through Coldlink.xyz we have unlocked the interoperability and freedom of movement across the entire digital space that we had all hypothesized in 2021 during the boom of NFTs,” said Betty, CEO at DFZ Labs. “We can now bring the value of digital assets with us across all of the spaces we inhabit. Large scale, cross-chain drops can be executed easily without risking any assets, token-gated experiences and events can be facilitated by anyone and accessed without risk or KYC, perks and rewards can now flow between web3 and web2 platforms easily with little to no infrastructure change required on the web2 side.”
The system is designed to operate without requiring the user to connect their wallet to a third-party platform. No on-chain transactions, smart contract approvals, or blind signatures are needed to establish a connection, which is intended to reduce potential risks.
The tool was originally designed as part of DFZ Labs’ internal efforts to improve access and verification for its gaming platforms and has since been adapted to suit a wider range of uses, such as managing access to events, running cross-chain campaigns, or linking digital assets to offline items.
The tool is currently in beta testing and developers interested in using Coldlink can access the API through the project’s website.
