+
+## Rationale
+
+The handling of direct communications channels between cryptographic user-agents (i.e., wallets) and applications vary widely across cryptographic systems.
+Rather than being a true namespace defined outside of CASA, this "meta-namespace" informationally groups together the wallet sub-namespaces of other namespaces specified at CASA.
+This "meta-namespace" is intended to facilitate an explicit segregation of connection mechanics, methods, and notifications for these channels from the very different mechanics, methods, and notifications used for application <> node purposes in each namespace.
+
+## Governance
+
+This namespace is purely formal and governed in CASA, and as such should only be used as a kind of "alias" or "passthrough" to each other namespace's application<>wallet mechanisms, governed accordingly in each namespace's native governance.
+Contributors are discouraged from making any claims or specifying any behaviors not already specified in the referenced namespaces;
+furthermore, contributers are encouraged to provide normative references when adding to the profiles for a given CAIP.

+*For context, see the [CAIP-2][] specification.*
+
+Each `chainId` reference in the `wallet:` namespace is defined as the namespace identifier for another namespace.
+
+This combination (i.e. `wallet:eip155`) refers not to an `eip155` network but specifically to an application<>wallet connection defined according to the wallet and RPC conventions of the `eip155` namespace.
+
+## Rationale
+
+Implementers of [CAIP-25][] and other multichain application<>wallet connections have long struggled with how to map offchain or direct-to-wallet methods, notifications, and metadata to one another across namespaces, and how to safely and ergonomically segregate them from node-dependent/network-dependent functions.
+For this reason, an abstraction (in the form of a "meta-namespace" routing to the other namespaces) is here proposed.
+
+## Semantics
+
+`wallet:{namespace}` is functionally an alias for `{namespace}:wallet`, where `:wallet` refers to a special-case of a wallet connection, not a proper network (as required by the CAIP-2 profile for `eip155`).
+
+## Syntax
+
+The only valid values for a `chainId` reference in the `wallet` namespace are the namespace identifiers of other namespaces.
+For a current list of these, see [namespaces][].
+
+### Resolution Mechanics
+
+All resolution is defined in the namespace referred to, and ideally specified in its `/README.md` file here.
+As resolution depends entirely on transport and connection mechanism, no uniform resolution mechanics should be assumed.
