In the past, many people might have thought of @WalletConnect as just a simple "wallet login tool"—like a small key that helps users quickly open the wallet door between different on-chain applications. But now, this "key" has changed, becoming a foundational system that supports the operation of global on-chain finance and meets the needs of large institutions.
Data best illustrates its scale: billions of stablecoins flow through WalletConnect's network every week, connecting over 700 mainstream wallets and more than 70,000 on-chain applications, covering various scenarios from personal daily transfers to multinational corporate settlements. Behind this is WalletConnect's excellent balance of "security" and "efficiency."
For institutions, the on-chain connection system has particularly high requirements. They need absolute security for their assets—without handing over assets to others for management, they can always maintain control, and every transaction's information must be fully encrypted to prevent leakage; they also need to handle a large number of high-frequency transactions, meaning "scalability" must be strong; compliance issues cannot be overlooked, especially for cross-border transactions, which must strictly adhere to international regulatory requirements like the "Travel Rule," ensuring transactions can be traced and audited. WalletConnect precisely meets these needs: its architectural design does not require asset custody, allowing institutions to maintain control; encryption technology fortifies the defense against information security breaches; it is flexible enough to easily handle transaction peaks; and the built-in compliance module can automatically adapt to regulatory requirements in different regions.
More importantly, WalletConnect solves the troubles of institutions with "one-click authorization"—it neither requires users to go through complex verification processes (to avoid affecting the experience), nor does it need to worry about compliance checks in the background (to meet regulatory requirements). This means that whether it is cross-border transfers of large payment institutions, companies paying wages on-chain, or trading in financial derivatives that particularly value compliance, everything can run smoothly on WalletConnect without worrying about the stability of technology or security vulnerabilities.
For ordinary users, WalletConnect retains the most core convenience: open the wallet, scan a code to authorize, and in a few seconds, the connection with any application can be completed without repeated registration or remembering a bunch of passwords. The emergence of the WCT token has transformed users from "users" into "ecosystem participants"—holding WCT allows participation in determining the platform's development direction, such as how features should be updated; storing the tokens (also known as "staking") can also yield returns, allowing users to enjoy convenient operations while sharing the economic benefits brought by WalletConnect's development, achieving the dual benefit of "easy to use and able to make money."
With the current WalletConnect, a special multi-layer ecosystem is being built: at the bottom is a secure and compliant network supporting institutional-level transactions, and at the top is a convenient connection tool for individual users. The two work together—institutions joining can bring more diverse financial scenarios, while active individual users can make the entire ecosystem more vibrant. This ecosystem is driving on-chain finance to move beyond the form of "decentralized trading" towards a mature global payment network and integrated financial infrastructure: in the future, whether it is individuals using their mobile phones to transfer money to overseas friends and family, or multinational companies paying suppliers with stablecoins, it is likely to be completed through WalletConnect, as naturally as banking transfers are done now.
Therefore, it can be said that WalletConnect is no longer just a simple "wallet connection" tool, but a true cornerstone supporting on-chain finance towards scale and standardization. Security, compliance, scalability, and simplicity of operation—this is the core reason it can gain both institutional trust and user preference.
