Currently, WalletConnect’s relay services are free, ensuring broad adoption across 600+ wallets and 67,000+ projects. However, the network is exploring a fee model through community governance, where WCT would be used to pay for services like message relays and session management. These fees would incentivize node operators and support the network’s long-term sustainability. Governance proposals, voted on by $WCT holders, will determine fee structures, ensuring transparency and community control. This shift aligns with @WalletConnect s roadmap to transition from a permissioned to a fully permissionless network, reducing reliance on centralized infrastructure and fostering a robust, decentralized ecosystem. #WalletConnect and $WCT and mention @WalletConnect
