Since 2018, one quiet player has connected every major wallet and app in the onchain economy: @WalletConnect .
That little blue wave you click to “Connect Wallet”? It’s not just UI — it’s infrastructure. And now, with the launch of WCT, that infrastructure becomes community-powered, decentralized, and permissionless.
Let’s talk about why WCT matters, how to stake it, and why this is one of the most legit token launches Web3 has seen.
🛠 What Is WalletConnect?
WalletConnect is the connectivity layer powering onchain experiences across all major blockchains. It’s the glue between:

700+ wallets61,000+ decentralized apps45M+ usersOver 300 million connections (and counting)

From DeFi swaps to NFT minting, staking to DAO voting — WalletConnect enables it all. Used by MetaMask, Trust Wallet, Binance, Jupiter, Polymarket and more, it's as essential to crypto as Visa is to commerce.
And unlike most Web3 infra, WalletConnect has been resilient since 2018, open-source, and adopted globally.

📊 Just How Big Is WalletConnect?

Let the numbers talk:
🟢 300M+ connections to date
🌍 45M+ users globally🔄 20M+ monthly connections
📈 5M+ monthly active users🔌 Powers 61K+ apps + 700+ wallets🧑‍💻 Facilitated 18M+ connections in March alone🏦 Secured $10M in funding across 4 oversubscribed rounds

Recent public sale saw 67K participants, with $326M committed for a $4M raise.

This isn’t a testnet product. WalletConnect is battle-tested infrastructure, quietly powering billions in user interactions every year.
💠 Enter $WCT : The Token Behind the Network

WCT is not just another governance token. It’s the utility engine for decentralizing WalletConnect and rewarding its ecosystem.

Here’s how WCT works:

🔐 1. Staking

Stake WCT to help secure the network. Rewards scale with longer commitments and higher stake sizes.

👉 Stake here : staking.walletconnect.network✅ Prevents over-concentration via slashing mechanisms
💰 Rewards come from a dedicated 17.5% supply pool

Already over 106.5M WCT staked

142,000+ holders have joined

🏛 2. Governance

WCT holders vote on network decisions, including fee structures, protocol upgrades, reward models, and more. This makes the network truly community-driven.
💸 3. Fees (Coming Soon)
While the network is currently fee-less, a Monthly Active User (MAU)-based model will be introduced through governance. WCT will be used to pay for services — ensuring sustainable, decentralized funding.
🏆 4. Rewards
Node operators, wallets, and contributors earn WCT based on uptime, latency, and performance metrics — aligning incentives across the stack.

🌐 Network Decentralization: From Central Infra to Distributed Backbone
WalletConnect is now executing a phased decentralization roadmap:
✅ v2 launched in 2023 — key protocol upgrade✅ 2024: introduction of top-tier node operators
💪 Backed by trusted players like Consensys, Ledger, Figment, Everstake, Kiln, Arc, Reown, Nansen.

Together, they form the backbone of the new permissionless connectivity layer.
