In the real world, Visa is not an ordinary company, but a "public foundation" of the global payment system.
Countless merchants and users trust and circulate because of it.
In the world of Web3, there is also a "blue logo" that is almost everywhere: WalletConnect.
It is the connection protocol of the on-chain economy, the default bridge between wallets and applications.
📊 45 million+ users
📊 300 million+ secure connections
This is an already market-validated infrastructure.
The problem is:
Visa belongs to shareholders, not users.
The biggest question that Web3 aims to solve is: Who owns the infrastructure?
The answer to @WalletConnect is: the community.
It is transforming itself into a decentralized network owned and governed by users.
The core carrier is the newly launched native token $WCT .
The design of WCT is not a vague "narrative", but clear two core utilities:
1️⃣ Staking — Ensuring network stability and security.
Currently, more than 106.5 million $WCT have been staked, which is the trust vote cast by the market.
2️⃣ Governance — Every token holder can vote on key network decisions, truly realizing the "protocol governed by users for users."
With the support of top node operators like Consensys and Ledger, WalletConnect's roadmap is clear:
From "centralized provider" → "decentralized protocol network"
From "team-driven" → "community autonomy"
From "single company" → "permissionless public goods"
The narrative behind this analogy is very interesting:
• Stocks to the industrial revolution are the democratization of capital
• REITs to the real estate market are the democratization of cash flow
• And $WCT to WalletConnect is the democratization of Web3 infrastructure ownership
This is a decentralized experiment involving 45 million participants.
When Visa still belongs to a few shareholders, WalletConnect is trying to make the on-chain "Visa" belong to everyone.
This is not just a technological upgrade, but a revolution of ownership.
