@WalletConnect : The Quiet Giant of Web3
Every time you scan a QR to link your wallet to an app, you’re probably using WalletConnect. It looks simple, but it’s the invisible handshake powering DeFi trades, NFT mints, and governance across Web3.
Born in 2018 to fix messy wallet connections, WalletConnect created an encrypted bridge: your keys stay safe, apps never touch them, and you approve every action. Today, it connects 600+ wallets to 65,000+ apps, serving nearly 50 million users and securing billions in activity.
Now it’s leveling up. The WalletConnect Network turns this hidden infrastructure into a decentralized backbone. With WCT, users stake to secure, node operators run gateways, and governance shifts to the community — spanning Optimism, Solana, and beyond.
It’s secure, seamless, and everywhere. The catch? It protects the pipe, not your clicks — so read before you sign.
WalletConnect isn’t flashy. It’s the quiet giant of Web3, and with WCT, it’s becoming community-owned infrastructure that keeps the ecosystem alive.
