There's only 3 days left to register your wallet for the WalletConnect Token (WCT) airdrop.

A step-by-step guide (+ video walkthrough):

1. Visit the official WalletConnect Token airdrop website (http://airdrop.walletconnect.network), and click ‘Register here’. Remember to select ‘WalletConnect’ as the connection method.

2. Make sure you scan the QR code with a mobile wallet. This part is crucial. Using a non-mobile method could seriously affect your eligibility for the airdrop.

3. Once you have connected your primary wallet, you can then add any additional wallets and GitHub accounts relevant to the airdrop criteria.
*Remember to connect via the WalletConnect QR code with your mobile wallet.

4. Lastly, add your primary email address. This is how you will receive updates on your eligibility status, so make sure it’s an email you can check regularly.
Onchain UX today is fragmented, complex, and difficult to navigate.

The WalletConnect Network changes that—providing a streamlined, secure, and decentralized solution that elevates the user experience and makes onchain interactions effortless.

Connecting a wallet today opens the door to a world of onchain opportunities for users, though it often still comes with complexity, security risks and the friction of dealing with multiple layers. The WalletConnect Network simplifies this by enabling seamless, end-to-end encrypted connections across any device—without the hassle.

Without a frictionless UX, the onchain future will struggle to scale. Fragmented experiences, security risks, and reliance on centralized infrastructure are barriers to a truly open, user-owned onchain ecosystem.

What is the WalletConnect Network?

It’s the critical infrastructure enabling secure, encrypted communication between wallets and apps across all devices.

But it's much more than that—here’s how it works and why it matters:

The WalletConnect Network solves a key problem in the onchain economy: how to easily connect wallets and apps, whether users are on mobile or desktop.

It enables users to securely interact with apps using QR codes or deep links, without exposing sensitive data.

At the core is the relay infrastructure, which facilitates encrypted communication between wallets and apps.

This means wallets never need to share private keys or sensitive information with the app itself, protecting user privacy while enabling seamless transactions.

The WalletConnect Network began in 2018 as a simple QR code allowing users to connect mobile wallets to desktop apps.

Today, it serves as the onchain UX ecosystem for millions.

As the WalletConnect Network evolves, node operations will become progressively decentralized, enhancing its infrastructure intended to enable even more secure and scalable connections across the ecosystem.

The WalletConnect Network is on a path to full decentralization, aiming for an internet built on ownership, interoperability, and consensus — one owned by everybody and nobody.

Connect Token (WCT) is a critical token of the WalletConnect Network, powering the onchain UX ecosystem. WCT fuels the engagement system of the WalletConnect Network, with core functions spanning fees, rewards, staking, and governance.

Launching on @optimism’s OP Mainnet, the token will employ @ethereum’s security and OP Mainnet’s speed.

With WCT, holders can:

✔️ Earn rewards in WCT
✔️ Stake their WCT to the network
✔️ Shape the future of onchain UX through governance and community-driven innovation

WCT will begin its release in Q4 2024 with additional releases over subsequent years. While tokens won’t be transferable initially, staking will be available from day one. Governance will decide when transferability begins as key milestones are achieved.
