💡I wonder if you all face a common situation of frequently using wallets to connect to various Dapps? But do you understand the underlying logic?
Have you ever experienced this: opening Uniswap, OpenSea, or various DeFi platforms, scanning to connect your wallet, and finishing it in seconds? The process is so smooth that we almost ignore who is ensuring this 'seamless connection' behind the scenes.
Until recently, I started to get in touch with $WCT and tried staking on stake.walletconnect.network, which led me to seriously study @WalletConnect . The more I looked, the more shocked I became:
🔹It is not an ancillary tool developed by a specific wallet, but a completely neutral, decentralized connection protocol.
🔹Since its launch in 2018, it has supported thousands of wallets and applications, almost the entire Web3 is using it.
🔹The V2 version shows significant technological upgrades, capable of connecting multiple chains and sessions simultaneously, and has strengthened encrypted communication and decentralized relaying.
This is not just a simple 'scan to connect', but one of the core infrastructures in the Web3 world.
Back to staking, I staked $WCT on the official website without any cumbersome operations; just connect the wallet, enter the amount, and confirm the signature, and it's done in a few steps. No high gas fees, and no thresholds. Most importantly, staking means you have governance rights over the protocol; no matter what functions are upgraded in the future, you have a voice.
This is different from many projects that are just for speculative trading; WalletConnect is genuinely engaged in foundational building, playing the role of 'laying the foundation' for the entire industry.
🗣️ If you have been on-chain for a long time like I have, I recommend you take a look at this project; perhaps you've already been using it without realizing it.
