Is your “Connect Wallet” click becoming actual on-chain infrastructure money?
Here’s the quiet shift no one saw coming: WalletConnect isn’t just the magic behind “scan to connect”—it’s gearing up to make that click a billable, trackable utility.
Check it: WalletConnect has powered over 300 million secure connections, serving 45 million users, 700 wallets, and 61,000+ apps. That’s tens of millions of real transactions rolling through one UX layer.
Now, plug in $WCT, their native token. WalletConnect plans to let the community govern fee models, likely based on monthly active users (MAU)—paid in WCT, not fiat. This means everyday interactions (like connecting a wallet) could start generating revenue—if apps opt in.
On the incentives side, stake WCT to secure the network, and node operators earn rewards for reliability and uptime (17.5% of WCT is reserved for that). Governance? WCT holders vote on changes—from staking rewards to fee structure.
The final piece: Smart Sessions. Users connect once and then let apps or AI agents transact on their behalf securely—no more constant popups. If WalletConnect launches feeable, permissioned sessions that devs pay for, the “connect” action becomes infrastructure with cash flow, not UX friction.#WalletConnect @WalletConnect $WCT
