—A joyful dissection of the blockchain "social contact list".
I. What is WCT? The "WeChat friend verification" of the Web3 world.
If we compare blockchain to a large escape room, the WCT token is the universal key that helps you connect all the rooms 🔑. Its full name is WalletConnect Token, and its main job is to connect your crypto wallet (like MetaMask) and various DApps (decentralized applications) like Lego blocks.
For example 🌰: You want to buy an NFT on OpenSea, but the wallet and website are staring at each other, not recognizing each other. At this point, WCT jumps in: "Bro, scan a code and add each other as friends?"—instantly completing the "scan to socialize" in the blockchain world. Moreover, it emphasizes more than WeChat, with encrypted chats ensuring your "private money password" is never leaked.
II. The Three Major Skills of WCT: Socializing, Making Money, Being the Boss
1. Late-stage social anxiety disorder patient
WCT can be called a "language genius" in the blockchain world, able to chat with major public chains like Ethereum, Solana, Bitcoin, etc. It's like mastering English, Cantonese, and Northeast dialect at the same time, making cross-chain interactions simpler than ordering takeout. Latest achievement: Facilitated 275 million "wallet and DApp matchmaking events."
2. A rising star in the passive income world
Staking Mining: Deposit WCT into the "Blockchain Yu'ebao," with an APY (Annual Percentage Yield) of up to 85%! However, be cautious; 50% of the returns are actually "candies conjured by inflation magic," beware of the sweet trap.
Airdrop Benefits: Early users have received 185 million "free pies falling from the sky," although the pies have shrunk now, the official says there will be more "hidden blind boxes" later.
3. The joy of being the boss, you wouldn't understand
Holding WCT is like owning a Tencent shareholder card, allowing you to influence protocol upgrades: "I think the transaction fee should be halved!" "I propose to support Dogecoin chain!". However, the current voting participation rate is less than 5%, suggesting it should be renamed to (Blockchain Simulation Life) for more accuracy.
III. Technical Dissection: More powerful than a Swiss Army knife
1. Security Index ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Uses "quantum entanglement level" encryption: The private key always sleeps in your phone, and even WCT itself doesn't know the password. Even if a hacker comes, they can only stare blankly: "Dude, can I get the WiFi password?"
2. Speed and Passion
Transferring on the BNB chain, the transaction fee is only 1/15 of Ethereum. It's like others taking a green train while you're driving a Maserati without paying tolls.
III. Cross-chain Black Technology
Built-in "Blockchain Translator," translating the dialects of different public chains into a universal language. Solana says: "Hurry!", Bitcoin replies: "Steady!", WCT: "On it!"
IV. Market Status: Starting like a roller coaster, future like a blind box
Current Market Situation (2025.5.26)
Price: $0.67 (up 3 times from the private placement price, but down 30% from the opening price)
Market Cap: $66 million, equivalent to 3 MiXue Bingcheng franchise stores
Community Complaints: "Where's the promised Web3 WeChat? Why has it turned into a blockchain drifting bottle?"
Future Predictions (for reference only, don't blame me if you lose money)
Optimistic Version: Will rise to $1.2 by 2026, reason: Web3 users exceed 1 billion, WCT becomes a must-have for installation
Pessimistic Version: Drops back to $0.2, reason: Competitor MetaMask suddenly issues a token for a sneak attack
Magical Version: Musk acquires WCT and renames it to X Connect, price skyrockets 500% in one day [^imagine]
V. Risk Warning: High energy ahead!
Selling Pressure Storm: 44% of the circulating supply is held by exchanges, speculators shake their legs, and retail investors tremble three times.
Air Quality Doubt: Currently, the main use is "staking mining and then re-staking," which can be considered the blockchain version of "Ponzi Fitness Ring".
Regulatory Landmine: The EU is brewing new regulations that may require WCT to keep chat records—what happened to privacy?!
Conclusion: Is it the king of infrastructure or a social assassin?
WCT is like that transfer student in class:
The teacher's top student: The report card states "Number of connections over 100 million, technical rating A+".
The gossip center among classmates: Rumors say "flirting with Binance, getting glances from Coinbase".
The controversial focus of the parent group: Some say "will definitely become a top student in the future," while others murmur "be careful of early love delaying studies".
