Hi there -

I'm building a demo to allow an Account Abstraction Wallet to be used with a dapp via WalletConnect. I copied the code from react-wallet-v2.

When I call web3Wallet.pair({uri}) (with a valid wc... string from say Uniswap interface), it always fails with a 404 to verify/attestation/... call. Things I have tried:

• verifying the domain by publishing on a vercel link but still same error. Is there a way to skip the verify call on localhost?
• I thought maybe the dapp can require a verify call, so I even spun up a local dapp with a different walletconnect id and still same error.

404 occurs even before it triggers session-proposal (i.e. never reaches web3wallet.on('session_proposal', onSessionProposal)). I must be missing something obvious. Any pointers to debug why verify/attestation/ call is being placed (I thought it shouldn't be) and how to either skip it or avoid the 404 would be greatly appreciated 🙏 .
