🚀 In the rapidly evolving world of Web3, WalletConnect stands as the invisible engine behind your favorite onchain apps and wallets. If you’ve ever connected to a DeFi protocol, swapped an NFT, or staked your assets on a dApp — chances are, you’ve used WalletConnect.
🔹 A History of Resilience & Innovation
Launched in 2018, WalletConnect was created to solve a core issue in crypto: connecting wallets and apps seamlessly. Back then, the user experience was clunky and fragmented. WalletConnect bridged that gap — securely and openly — and has since become the default connectivity layer of Web3.
