๐ The Next Phase of the @WalletConnect Network ๐๐
Since 2018, @WalletConnect has been the backbone of Web3 interoperability โ enabling millions of users, across 3,000+ apps and 500+ wallets, to connect seamlessly and securely. But this was only the beginning.
WalletConnectโs true mission has always been bigger: building decentralized infrastructure so both users and developers can experience Web3 the way it was meant to be โ open, reliable, and permissionless.
๐ The Phased Roadmap to Decentralization
โ Phase 1 (Now): Redesigned network architecture with multiple relayers, boosting speed, security, and reliability.
๐ Phase 2 (Q1 2024): Closed, permissioned launch to battle-test infrastructure.
๐ Phase 3 (Q3 2024): Open, federated network with selected relayers + incentive layer testing.
๐ Phase 4 (2025): Fully open, permissionless WalletConnect Network โ decentralized, community-run, and unstoppable.
๐ Why This Matters
For Users: Increased reliability, portability of data, and seamless cross-app communication.
For Developers: Modularity, openness, and true permissionless building.
For Web3: A global communication layer that no single entity controls โ powered by incentives, staking, and community participation.
๐ฎ The Future of Web3 Infrastructure
This evolution transforms WalletConnect from a simple protocol into a foundational communication layer for the decentralized internet. A network that is:
Resilient against downtime
Efficient with regionalized relayers
Open to anyone, anywhere
๐ก Web3 needs decentralized communication as much as it needs decentralized money. WalletConnect is leading the march toward an open, permissionless future where wallets and apps truly belong to the people.
