🚀 What is WalletConnect (WCT)?
WalletConnect is an open-source protocol that allows you to connect your wallet (like MetaMask, Trust Wallet, or Ledger) to decentralized applications (DApps) through a simple QR code scan.
It is not a token but a critical infrastructure tool for:
- Interacting with DeFi (Uniswap, Aave).
- Playing play-to-earn (Axie Infinity).
- Signing transactions without sharing your keys.
🔒 How does it protect your security?
✅ End-to-End encrypted connection: Your keys never leave your wallet.
✅ Non-custodial: You control your funds at all times.
✅ Multi-wallet: Compatible with over 200 wallets and 90+ blockchains.
Practical example: When connecting your MetaMask to OpenSea, WalletConnect generates a temporary QR code that links without exposing sensitive data.
💡 Key use cases
1️⃣ Token swap on PancakeSwap from your mobile.
2️⃣ Staking in Curve pools using a Ledger.
3️⃣ NFTs: Buy on Magic Eden from Trust Wallet.
⚠️ Risks and how to avoid them
