Most people use
@WalletConnect without even realizing it.
One scan of a QR code, and suddenly you’re swapping tokens, minting NFTs, signing messages, or voting in DAOs. No browser extensions. No exposing seed phrases. Just a smooth, secure connection between your wallet and any dApp.
But behind that sleek user experience is a powerful protocol quietly running most of Web3 and it just dropped one of the most under-the-radar tokens in the space:
$WCT .
I didn’t just claim the airdrop
I locked in. I’m staking.
And here’s why WalletConnect could be one of the most important infrastructure plays in crypto.
🔌 The Invisible Protocol That Powers Web3
WalletConnect isn’t loud.
It doesn’t launch meme coins.
It doesn’t need hype.
What it does do is power over 40,000 dApps and connect more than 600 wallets across every major chain. That includes:
→ MetaMask
→ Trust Wallet
→ Coinbase Wallet
→ Rabby
→ Rainbow
→ And many more…
It’s the connective tissue of crypto letting users move across ecosystems without friction, and letting developers build without having to reinvent the wheel.
📍 End-to-end encrypted
📍 Multi-chain session support
📍 Keys stay in your wallet always
This is the Web3 we imagined: secure, simple, and user-first.
💠 Why WCT Isn’t Just a Token It’s Ownership
In late 2024, WalletConnect dropped WCT not as a cash grab, but as a path toward decentralization.
This was the start of a governance-first roadmap, rewarding real users and inviting them to help shape the protocol’s evolution.
I instantly saw the value. I didn’t see hype. I saw infrastructure ownership.
I staked my WCT because now I’m not just using the protocol. I’m helping secure it.
🧱 Staking
$WCT : Real Utility, Real Participation
Here’s what staking offers:
✅ Weekly WCT rewards every Thursday

I locked 2,000
$WCT for 40 weeks.
Within days, I was participating in governance.
Within weeks, I was earning passively with full transparency.
🔓 A Protocol That Puts Power Back in Users’ Hands
One of the first big votes?
Whether
$WCT should become transferable.
The community voted yes, and transfers went live in April 2025.
Next up: fully on-chain governance and permissionless nodes that anyone can run.
This is what decentralization looks like not overnight, but one upgrade at a time.
🚀 What’s Coming Next for WalletConnect

📱 Smarter UX persistent sessions, seamless wallet re-connection

Just like Ethereum became the settlement layer of Web3,
WalletConnect is becoming the communication layer.
And it’s doing it the right way:
Progressively decentralized, security-first, and open to all.
🧠 Why I’m All In
This isn’t about hype.
This is about building something essential and owning a piece of it.
I use WalletConnect every day.
Now I help secure it.

No wild speculation. Just conviction.
