#WalletConnect What is the Wallet Connect network?
The network @WalletConnect is a decentralized infrastructure for developers and users that facilitates seamless interactions between wallets and applications in the Web3 ecosystem. It securely bridges the gap between desktop and mobile users by reading a QR code. The main focus of WalletConnect is to address UX issues on-chain. As a chain-independent infrastructure, it operates across various ecosystems, from EVM and its L2s to Solana, Cosmos, Polkadot, Bitcoin, and more. To connect the wallet, it uses a shared key between the protocol and the user's wallet to establish encrypted connections, allowing users to enjoy a private and secure connection when interacting with Dapps and protocols $WCT
