In the volatile world of crypto, there are projects quietly building real value – without noise, no FOMO, but persistent and profound. WalletConnect is a prime example. This is not just a name known to millions of users of decentralized wallets, but also an essential infrastructure bridge for Web3 applications. And now, the emergence of the token $WCT has laid the foundation for a new development phase in the expansion journey of this ecosystem.
Since its official launch, $WCT has attracted strong attention from the community, not only because it is the native token of a familiar platform but also because of the way it is implemented: systematically, with clear goals, and not chasing after pump-and-dump trends. Notably, $WCT once peaked at over 1.40 USD after its initial listing, but is currently trading around 0.31 USD – a price that raises questions for many investors: Could this be an accumulation opportunity before the project continues to develop further?
Why are WalletConnect and WCT noteworthy?
First, we need to look back at the core value of WalletConnect – a protocol that connects decentralized wallets with decentralized applications (DApps). This is the bridge that most Web3 users have experienced, even if they may not have noticed. From connecting Metamask wallet to a DEX platform, to logging into NFT applications, this protocol has always silently operated behind the scenes. This means that: WalletConnect not only exists, but it is part of the backbone of modern Web3 infrastructure.
The emergence of the WCT token is a logical step to tokenize that infrastructure, paving the way for community expansion, encouraging interaction, staking, and decentralized governance (DAO) in the future. This places WCT among the tokens that are 'foundational', with utility, rather than merely speculative tools.
Staking opportunities and passive income
A noteworthy point about WCT is that it has integrated a staking mechanism directly through the ostaking.walletconnect.network platform, with the current APR at around 22.75% – a fairly competitive figure in the context of staking opportunities becoming increasingly tightened across many major platforms.
The staking process is designed to be user-friendly: just connect your wallet, approve the contract, choose the amount of tokens and the lock-in time. No complex skills or programming knowledge required – just be a basic crypto user.
Why should we pay attention to WCT right now?
We do not need to predict the returns that WCT might bring. That is unnecessary. What is important is: the project has a real foothold in Web3 infrastructure, a real user community, and an ecosystem that is gradually expanding in application.
The current price adjustment of the token after an initial strong increase is completely normal in any development cycle. But with a large user base available from the native protocol, combined with clear steps in developing staking and decentralized platforms, WCT is gradually accumulating its position as a foundational token – rather than a short-term trend.

Conclusion: Infrastructure projects need time, but will shape the future
Not every token needs to be 'polished' with short-term profit numbers. There are projects where the long-term goals, perseverance in building infrastructure, and alignment with the real needs of users are the key factors.
WCT of @WalletConnect is one of those – a token that is not loud but is present at the intersection of technology, real application, and user community. And sometimes, the quiet things have the most sustainable power.
