Why is @WalletConnect and $WCT the "King of Infrastructure" in Web3?
When Web3 was still debating "which chain is better", @WalletConnect had already provided the answer through action: the best ecosystem is one where all chains can work together seamlessly. This open protocol, which supports over 700 wallets and 65,000+ DApps, has proven its value with 300 million secure connections, and the emergence of $WCT has elevated it from a "tool" to a "community-built ecosystem".
It solves the core "trust issue" in Web3. What do users fear most when connecting to DApps? Private key leakage. The solution of #WalletConnect is to allow wallets to communicate directly with DApps, with the protocol acting only as a "megaphone", never touching the private key throughout the process. This "zero-knowledge" design has made it synonymous with security—whether it's a novice purchasing a small NFT or an institution managing large asset allocations, users can feel safe.
WCT makes "using equals investing" possible. Staking tokens not only earns a 17.5% reward pool return, but also allows voting on key protocol decisions. Over 106 million WCT has been locked, with over 140,000 users participating in governance, meaning that the connection standards of Web3 are no longer decided by a few, but shaped collectively by all users. Just like Wikipedia is collaboratively written by users worldwide, WCT is enabling the infrastructure of Web3 to be co-authored by global users.
The non-competitiveness of @WalletConnect is precisely its greatest competitiveness. When all wallets use the same connection standards, and all DApps can adapt to the same protocol, the efficiency of the entire ecosystem will increase geometrically. #WalletConnect is like the underground pipeline network of a city—unobtrusive yet essential for the efficient operation of the entire city. Now, $WCT invites you to become a "shareholder" in this network, allowing each connection to create value for yourself—this is what Web3 infrastructure should look like.
