Blockhead・Web3 Browser/Explorer

This week on /blockhead:

• overhauled Wallets menu layout and transitions

	• new flow: “Pin” a connected wallet to persist its connection between page sessions (before, you had to check “Autoconnect” prior to connecting from a new session which was confusing!)

• overhauled state management logic for wallet discovery and account connections (for both Svelte 4 and Svelte 5 in parallel)

	• improved accuracy by modeling all possible connection methods for selecting a “known wallet”: EIP-6963 reverse-DNS names, @walletconnect UUIDs, resolver functions and “identity flag” matching functions for globally injected EIP-1193 provider objects (including but not limited to `window.ethereum`, `window.web3.currentProvider`, and the infamous `isMetaMask` flag which is set to `true` by several @metamask browser extension wannabes 🦊🥸)
