WalletConnect’s mission is interoperability for human UX. To do that at scale it needs three things: (1) a resilient relay fabric, (2) multichain compatibility, and (3) economic alignment so operators invest in availability. WalletConnect addresses all three. The network already supports major ecosystems (EVM, Solana, Bitcoin, Cosmos), and WCT’s token mechanics are built to reward relays and integrations that reduce friction for users moving between chains. That’s a practical path to multichain UX that doesn’t sacrifice security or decentralization.
Practical impacts: developers get a single integration surface for wallet connectivity across many chains; wallets can offer “smart sessions” and long-lived approvals with community-managed relays; and custodians/exchanges can leverage relay redundancy to improve deposit/withdrawal flows. This reduces the number of custom integrations teams must maintain and helps wallets offer consistent UX across ecosystems which ultimately raises on-chain usage and the value of infrastructure tokens like $WCT.
Watch-list for builders & traders: relay node count and geographic distribution (resilience), staking participation and reward schedules (economic security), and cross-chain airdrop/partnership campaigns (adoption). If WalletConnect converts its massive connection base into an engaged, staked community of relay operators, $WCT could be one of the rare tokens whose utility is literally embedded in the flow of billions of on-chain connections.
