WalletConnect is widely used, well-supported, and considered safe when used correctly — but it doesn't eliminate the risks of interacting with malicious smart contracts or fake apps. Always verify the building blocks (dApps, contracts, app sources).
Beware of fake WalletConnect apps/extensions — scammers often impersonate it on app stores or through phishing
Experts recommend:
Only connect to trusted dApps,
Avoid unlimited token approvals, and
Revoke permissions regularly
