The WalletConnect Network ecosystem is made up of various participants—developers, teams, and projects—that ensure decentralization, security, and functionality across the network. 1️⃣ Service Nodes keep the WalletConnect Network running. Service Node operators stake WCT and are responsible for maintaining uptime and performance, ensuring secure and seamless connections between wallets and apps. 2️⃣ Gateway nodes handle encrypted communications and data routing, facilitating efficient and secure connections. These nodes are key as they are in charge of scaling and ensuring velocity of the connections. 3️⃣ Wallets are the gateway for users to interact with apps through the WalletConnect Network. They ensure that users can safely manage their digital assets and perform transactions while maintaining security and privacy. 4️⃣ Apps and SDKs bring users into the WalletConnect ecosystem. They help developers integrate WalletConnect easily, while apps deliver the products and services that make web3 accessible to users across the globe. Want to dive deeper?

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: 1. 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. 2. 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. 3. Decentralization is key. As the WalletConnect Network scales, it will move toward a fully permissionless model, where anyone can run a Service Node. This transition ensures that no single entity controls the network, making it resilient and censorship-resistant. 4. As it decentralizes, the WalletConnect Network also introduces WCT, its native token. WCT will power governance, staking, rewards, and future fee structures. Participants will be able to use WCT to vote on proposals, stake tokens to secure the Network, and earn rewards based on their contributions. 5. As the Network evolves, it’s laying the groundwork for an onchain UX ecosystem that prioritizes user autonomy, privacy, and security. By standardizing wallet-to-app interactions, the WalletConnect Network aims to scale web3 to billions of users globally. The WalletConnect Network is more than just a connection layer between wallets and apps—it’s the foundation for the onchain future. Learn more in the whitepaper ↓ https://lnkd.in/gG9YTynw
