#WalletConnect Why Become a 'On-chain Necessity'? $WCT Ecosystem Provides the Answer

When a protocol enables 600+ wallets to achieve 'borderless connectivity' with 67,000 DApps, it transitions from a tool to the backbone of the Web3 world. WalletConnect is such an example: 47.5 million users enjoy DeFi, trade NFTs through it, and with 335 million connections, cross-chain transfers, signed voting, and other operations are fully encrypted throughout the process, building a solid foundation of trust with zero security incidents. Whether trading on Optimism or minting NFTs on Solana, a single connection allows for automatic recognition for subsequent actions, completely eliminating the hassle of repeatedly entering addresses.

Meanwhile, $WCT weaves this 'necessity' into a symbiotic ecosystem. Under strict control of a total supply of 1 billion, only 186 million coins are in circulation, of which 123 million are staked in the network—stakers not only enjoy a 23% APY return but also shoulder the role of 'guardians' of network security, where any malicious behavior could trigger a mechanism for deducting staked assets. Governance is equally efficient; in the previous proposal on 'whether to support a new public chain,' 59,000 stakers quickly voted on the resolution, with efficiency exceeding traditional institutions by more than ten times.

WalletConnect deeply understands the underlying logic of 'ecological win-win.' By providing Certified authentication for wallets, it reassures users and attracts more wallets to actively connect; by creating the Reown toolkit for developers, integration costs are significantly reduced, leading to a surge in DApp numbers that in turn boosts user growth. The case of the Gemini wallet, which saw a 30% increase in users after integration, vividly illustrates the positive cycle of the ecosystem. The airdrop plan of 185 million WCT in 2024 will further incorporate newcomers into this positive cycle, continually strengthening the ecological foundation.

From 47.5 million users to the goal of hitting 100 million, @WalletConnect t connects users, developers, and stakers through $WCT : users gain a smooth experience, developers reduce customer acquisition costs, and stakers enjoy returns and governance rights. This 'altruism is self-interest' ecological design is the core secret to its becoming an on-chain necessity.
