WCT: Transforming #WalletConnect from Infrastructure to Governance Powerhouse

In the often fragmented and complex world of Web3 @WalletConnect has quietly become an essential backbone—solving cross-chain communication challenges between wallets and dApps with simplicity and efficiency.

Since its launch in 2018, WalletConnect has:

Connected 600+ wallets

Enabled integration with 65,000+ dApps

Served 47.5 million users

Processed over 300 million secure connections

Despite operating behind the scenes, WalletConnect has become trusted communication layer of Web3. Now, with the introduction of WCT, it is evolving from a connectivity tool into a community-driven governance platform—reshaping how Web3 operates at its core.

Core Value Breaking Down Barriers

WalletConnect mission is to enable seamless, secure interaction across chains. By allowing applications to “speak the same language,” users can interact with dApps across ecosystems without switching wallets or tools. Every connection is secured with end-to-end encryption, making the experience both user-friendly and private.

The Role of WCT Empowering the Ecosystem

$WCT introduces co-governance, allowing stakeholders to share in the protocol’s evolution. Through staking, users gain voting rights to influence critical decisions—from technical upgrades to incentive models.

Fair and Balanced Governance

WalletConnect’s governance model emphasizes both participation and fairness:

Voting power is determined by staked amount and lock-up duration rewarding long-term commitment.

A 5% cap per address ensures decentralization and prevents dominance by large holders.

Already, 127 million WCT have been staked, with the community actively driving WalletConnect’s next phase of innovation.

Looking Ahead

Planned features like AI-powered conversations and intelligent interaction layers will further enhance the Web3 user experience. Importantly, these developments will be shaped by the WCT-holding community—proving that decentralization can deliver not only ideals but efficient, real-world results
