In the Web3 ecosystem, there are protocols that shout โ and protocols that deliver.
WalletConnect is the latter.
Since 2018, @WalletConnect has quietly become the connectivity layer powering the onchain economy, facilitating seamless, secure wallet-to-app communication for over 45 million users across 700+ wallets and 61,000+ applications.
From MetaMask to Binance, Jupiter to Zapper, if youโve connected to a dApp, chances are youโve used WalletConnect.
๐ง Built to Last: Trusted, Resilient, and Battle-Tested
WalletConnect is open-source and has operated without interruption since its inception. It has been the invisible backbone of DeFi, NFTs, DAOs, staking, and beyond โ handling over 300 million connections to date, including 18 million connections in March alone across the top 8 Web3 wallets.
As onchain UX expands, WalletConnect continues to evolve with it.
Now, itโs entering its most ambitious phase yet: decentralizing the network and empowering the community through the launch of the WalletConnect Token ($WCT).
โ A Protocol Youโve Already Trusted (Without Thinking Twice)
WalletConnect was launched in 2018 to solve a foundational problem in crypto: secure, wallet-agnostic communication between users and apps.
Itโs been battle-tested for over 6 years, and is now integrated into 500+ wallets and 2,000+ applications, including:
MetaMask
Coinbase Wallet
Rainbow
Trust Wallet
Ledger
OpenSea
Uniswap
Zapper
Zora
The protocol handles hundreds of millions of sessions per year โ making it one of the most widely adopted communication layers in all of Web3.
Despite its scale, WalletConnect has remained invisible, permissionless, and open-source โ true to the spirit of decentralization.
