PANews reported on May 24 that according to Decrypt, the cross-chain protocol WalletConnect announced that its governance token WCT has officially landed on the Solana network and will airdrop 5 million WCT to Solana active users. The integration marks the start of WalletConnect's "multi-chain process", and the integration of more chains is already under development. Pedro Gomes, founder of the WalletConnect Foundation, said that the protocol is shifting from "Ethereum-centric" to "chain-independent protocol", and in-depth cooperation with the Solana ecosystem has lasted for several months.
In 2024, WalletConnect launched a decentralization plan, launched the WCT token and established a foundation. This airdrop follows the distribution of 50 million WCT to users last year. Several Solana head applications, including the lending platform Save and the perpetual contract exchange Drift, have adopted its infrastructure.
