The final hours are ticking down on one of WalletConnect’s most impactful governance votes — the proposed WCT staking upgrade. If approved, this change could redefine how $WCT works for traders, investors, and the entire Web3 infrastructure market.
The upgrade aims to:
Boost APYs sustainably with better reward distribution.
Give stakers more flexibility by reducing lock-up risks.
Strengthen liquidity so users can earn without losing token access.
Historically, tokens confirming staking improvements see 10–20% price jumps within 24 hours, with higher volumes on pairs like WCT/BTC, WCT/ETH, and WCT/USDT. More locked tokens mean less supply in circulation — a classic recipe for upward pressure.
Short-term traders may ride the volatility in these final hours, while long-term holders could benefit from increased TVL and institutional interest as the network becomes more attractive for stable yields.
WalletConnect, with over 47.5M users, 600+ wallet integrations, and 300M+ connections, is already a backbone of Web3. The $WCT token, active on Optimism and Solana, powers governance, staking, and cross-chain communication.
If this vote passes, it won’t just tweak staking mechanics — it could reprice WCT’s future and cement WalletConnect’s position as a leader in decentralized infrastructure.
Watch for: sudden spikes in on-chain activity, resistance breakouts, and liquidity surges in major trading pairs. In the fast-paced world of crypto, this could be one of 2025’s most strategic moments to position yourself.
