In the decentralized governance of Web3, the voting rights conferred by staking have become key to community participation, while traditional low-weight mechanisms struggle to reflect user influence. WalletConnect Anchor quietly lays the foundation, anchoring a new realm of governance weight balance with its solid cornerstone identity, injecting lasting decision-making power into the on-chain UX ecosystem. It examines how it shapes the future of the digital economy through technology and mechanisms.
The cornerstone of WalletConnect Anchor began with its staking governance framework in August 2025. The optimization in July 2025 shortened the voting weight calculation delay to 120 milliseconds, running on the Optimism Mainnet. The 'Governance Rise' program in June 2025 attracted 280,000 users to participate, with a cumulative locked amount reaching 55 million tokens. On-chain data from August 2025 shows that the TVL is close to 370 million USD, and the governance proposal approval rate reached 85%.
In July 2025, WalletConnect collaborated to optimize the Snapshot voting experience, with monthly transaction volume exceeding 27 million USD. The system upgrade in June 2025 supported real-time governance participation from 90 new addresses, with API call volume reaching 90 million times. The stability of the cornerstone lies in its stakeweight design, with the longest lock-up period of 105 weeks in August 2025 enhancing voting influence by 25%, and dynamic adjustments in July 2025 reducing weight decay by 10%.
The 'Anchor Boot' event in June 2025 allocated 450,000 USD in rewards to 140 developers, covering governance tool development. On-chain analysis from August 2025 shows a 20% increase in governance participation and an 18% growth in trading depth. However, the stability of the cornerstone faces challenges. The July 2025 testnet showed that 7% of users exited due to prolonged lock-up periods. In the future, if WalletConnect Anchor optimizes flexibility and enhances community education, its cornerstone may solidify more governance power. This cornerstone lays the foundation for governance in Web3. Every stabilization is a nourishment of blockchain potential, and we look forward to its more prosperous future. #WalletConnect $WCT @WalletConnect
