Here is the path so far and what comes next: 🔸Milestones - 2018 → Pedro Gomes started it. WalletConnect v1 came out with a QR code that linked a wallet to a dApp. - 2021 → v2 came out with multi-chain, persistent pairing, Waku p2p relays, and a better user experience. - 2023 → v1 is no longer available. The whole ecosystem moves to v2. New features include push notifications and one-click authentication. - 2024 → The WalletConnect Foundation was set up. Third-party nodes added (Ledger, ConsenSys, Figment, etc.). The first airdrop and announcement of the WCT token. The WalletGuide and Certified Wallet programs are now live. - 2025 → $WCT listed on top exchanges (April 15). Governance kicks off. Smart Sessions + Chain Abstraction roadmap revealed. Partnerships expand (Telegram MiniApps, Optimism, Stripe). 🔮 What's Coming - More node operators who work on their own. - Incentives that can grow through $WCT staking and rewards. - Full chain abstraction means that users won't have to worry about which blockchain they're on. - Changes to the user experience (UX) that make Web3 easier to use, like Web2. 👉 #WalletConnect is becoming the "HTTP of Web3". $WCT will be used for governance and incentives, making the network a permanent part of onchain UX. @WalletConnect #WalletConnect ","images":["https://d2kdcqywr8ua22.cloudfront.net/uploadfile/article/blog/2025092025/09/09/d126e4d48cf79ca9406ee88c52e72cd7.png"],"tags":[],"tradingPairs":["WCT/USDT"],"quotearticleid":0}
