Since 2018, WalletConnect has been the connectivity backbone of the onchain ecosystem, providing a gateway for over 35 million users to connect to thousands of onchain apps more than 220 million times (and counting). In today’s web3 landscape, the network’s now-iconic blue symbol is virtually ubiquitous, appearing across almost all leading apps where users connect to the decentralized world. What began as a humble logo has become the cornerstone of connection and seamless UX in one of the most transformative eras of our time. But the network didn’t achieve this alone.
Much like its wider ecosystem, WalletConnect is only as strong as its community. Every individual action taken on the network strengthens its foundation, enabling it to grow and adapt to meet the needs of global users striving for a better digital future. Through the cycles and storms of bears and bulls, the resilience and determination of the web3 community have empowered the WalletConnect Network to flourish and solidify its role as the foundational connectivity layer of the new internet.
A network thrives in the strength of its connections; each user a vital thread in the fabric of its success. WalletConnect’s strength lies not just in its technology, but in its people.
That’s why the next major step on WalletConnect's roadmap is the WalletConnect Community Round— giving WalletConnect’s 35-million-strong community an equal opportunity to play a meaningful role in the development of the network.
The Token Community Round is an early access invitation to the WalletConnect community, offering the network’s key supporters the chance to take an active role in the ecosystem by accessing WCT at a fair valuation in line with recent private offerings.
What is the WalletConnect Token Community Round?
The playing field has always been level across the WalletConnect ecosystem, and as the network furthers its commitment to decentralization, it’s imperative that all developments reflect this principle.
The Community Round is launching in collaboration with CoinList, inviting participants to purchase WCT from a pool of 20 million tokens at a fair valuation in line with recent private offerings. Additionally, WCT purchased in this Community Round will not be subject to lock-up periods, allowing more flexibility in the Community’s engagement with the network.* The round will also follow a “filling up from the bottom” allocation structure, a distribution method that ensures as many WalletConnectors as possible have fair access to the round.
About the round
The round will take place on CoinList’s platform on 4th February 2025, with a registration page for participants to set up their CoinList accounts and evaluate sale details going live from today. Head to the sale page on CoinList to learn more about the details of the sale and prepare your account on CoinList to be able to participate.
A New Chapter in Connectivity
From the start, WalletConnect has bridged gaps in connectivity, enabling decentralized technologies to flourish by creating seamless pathways for users to access and engage with the onchain world. Next? Decentralizing connectivity itself.
The WalletConnect Token Community Round is a defining step in decentralizing the network and solidifying its role as a cornerstone of the decentralized web. By bridging the gap between legacy connectivity and a fully decentralized future, we’re not just empowering users—we’re fundamentally reshaping the infrastructure that powers the decentralized web.
By participating, you’re not only joining a proven technology but becoming an integral part of its continued growth and evolution, and that of the wider ecosystem. Walletconnectors, it’s time to decentralize connectivity—together.
The Community Round will begin sales from 4th February 2025. To learn more about the details of the sale and prepare your account on CoinList to be able to participate, head to the official sale page.
