Staking

Let’s be real:
You’ve probably used @WalletConnect and didn’t even notice.

You scanned a QR.
Connected your wallet.
Swapped some tokens. Minted an NFT. Voted in a DAO.

No browser extension.
No seed phrase risk.
Just seamless, secure connection.

But under that smooth experience?
WalletConnect is doing the heavy lifting — quietly powering the backbone of Web3.

Now they’ve launched their own token, $WCT , and opened up staking at staking.walletconnect.network.

I didn’t just use WalletConnect —
I invested in it.

The Invisible Layer That Powers Everything

WalletConnect isn’t a hype machine.
No promises of 100x. No memecoins. No noise.

But it connects over 40,000 dApps and 600+ wallets, including MetaMask, Trust Wallet, Rabby — to protocols like Uniswap, Aave, OpenSea, and more.

It’s the invisible communication layer behind nearly everything in crypto.

✅ End-to-end encrypted
🔗 Cross-chain session support
🛡️ Your keys never leave your wallet

We use it every day.
We just didn’t realize it.

WCT: More Than a Token Drop

When WalletConnect launched $WCT in late 2024, it wasn’t to jump on trends.
It was about giving power to users, decentralizing the protocol, and letting the community steer the ship.

I got in through the airdrop.
And I didn’t dump.
I staked.

Why I’m Staking $WCT

Staking $WCT gives me more than just passive rewards:

🪙 Weekly WCT payouts

🗳️ Governance rights over future decisions

🛠️ Support for decentralization of critical infra

I locked 2,000 WCT for 40 weeks.
No validators. No slashing. Just smooth, passive rewards every Thursday.

The process? Effortless:
1. Connect your wallet
2. Approve $WCT
3. Choose lock time (1–105 weeks)
4. Confirm
5. Done. You’re earning.

Your Lock = Your Voice

Staking isn’t just about yield — it’s about participation.

I was voting within weeks.
The first proposal? Should be WCT transferable?

Community said yes. Transfers went live in April 2025.
Now, full on-chain governance is on the way.
Real protocol control — handed to the users.
What’s Coming Next
WalletConnect is evolving fast.
Soon it won’t just connect wallets — it’ll connect Web3 itself.
What’s on the roadmap?
🌐 Permissionless nodes (anyone can run one, earn WCT)
🗳️ On-chain governance with full transparency
⚡ Persistent, smarter sessions
🧰 Dev tooling powered by $WCT
If Ethereum is Web3’s settlement layer,
WalletConnect is its messaging layer.

And now — it’s tokenized, live, and fully in your hands.

Why I’m All In

I don’t chase hype.
I look for tools I already use. Infrastructure that actually works.

WalletConnect powers the stuff we all rely on — in the background.
And with $WCT + staking, we can now own a piece of that infrastructure.

I use it.
I support it.
And now, I get rewarded for it.

Want to Stake? Here's How:

1. Go to staking.walletconnect.network
2. Connect your wallet
3. Approve $WCT
4. Choose lock time
5. Start earning every Thursday

Whether you received the airdrop or just want to back the future of Web3 infrastructure — this is your moment.

This isn’t just staking.
It’s ownership.
It’s participation.
It’s building the future — together.

Let’s decentralize the way we connect.

📅 July 23, 2025 | New York, USA
Ethereum has just set off all the bullish alarms in the crypto market: according to The Block, the world's second-largest cryptocurrency is experiencing a surge in institutional demand that's propelling it to new yearly highs, fueling expectations of a jump toward the $4,500 level.
The ETH rally is being driven by several combined factors: record flows into staking ETFs, corporate treasuries accumulating ETH as a reserve, and DeFi whales taking advantage of every pullback to add to their positions.
The result: ETH spot and derivatives volumes are at all-time highs for 2025, with traders and analysts anticipating that the "corporate Ethereum" narrative could be the spark that keeps this bullish wave alive in the middle of summer.
What's fueling this rally?
The fuel behind ETH's takeoff has a name and surname:
🔹 Staking ETFs: New financial product approvals allow traditional investors to gain exposure to passive returns via staking without moving funds on-chain. This reduces float and increases buying pressure.
🔹 Corporate treasuries: Companies like GameSquare, Sharplink Gaming, and Bit Digital are accumulating thousands of ETH, reinforcing the narrative of Ethereum as a corporate reserve for on-chain assets and DeFi rewards.
🔹 Revitalized DeFi: Platforms like Hyperliquid and new stablecoin pools are generating a structural demand for ETH as collateral and gas for complex transactions.
Together, these factors are draining liquidity from exchanges and reducing available supply. And when supply falls, the price… rises.
Also:
Net inflows into staking ETFs exceed $2.2 billion in July. Corporate wallets identified by on-chain platforms have accumulated more than 320,000 new ETH since June. ETH's daily spot volume is at its highest point since November 2021.
What could slow this momentum?
Although the momentum is positive, risks remain:
Massive profit-taking by whales could trigger rapid selling. Regulatory changes, especially in the US, could slow new institutional inflows.A sharp correction in Bitcoin always drags the rest down.
However, for now, sentiment is openly bullish.
Topic opinion:
Ethereum demonstrates time and again its ability to reinvent itself: first as a DeFi engine, then as an NFT platform, and now as a corporate asset and financial liability via staking.
The institutional adoption of ETH isn't hype: it's a well-founded narrative, validated by capital flows, Wall Street integration, and companies that see Ethereum as the foundational infrastructure for everything coming to Web3.
