#WalletConnect $WCT @WalletConnect

The WCT Airdrop refers to the distribution of WalletConnect Tokens (WCT) to the on-chain community. WalletConnect is an open-source protocol that allows users to connect their crypto wallets to decentralized applications (dApps). The WCT token is the native utility token of the WalletConnect ecosystem, designed to power its on-chain user experience (UX) and act as a reward and governance token.

Here's a breakdown of key information regarding the WCT airdrop:

Purpose of the Airdrop:

* To decentralize the WalletConnect Network.

* To reward active users and contributors to the WalletConnect ecosystem.

* To empower the community to participate in governance and contribute to the future of on-chain UX.

Airdrop Seasons and Allocation:

* WalletConnect is airdropping a total of 185 million WCT tokens across multiple "seasons."

* Season 1 distributed 50 million tokens, with 30 million allocated to active users and 20 million to contributors (e.g., GitHub developers, node operators, early supporters).

* The claim period for Season 1 ran from November 26, 2024, to January 3, 2025.

* More airdrop seasons are planned for the future.

Eligibility Criteria (for Season 1 and generally):

* Active participation: Users who connected their wallets to dApps using WalletConnect were considered. This includes interactions like signing in, trading, and other on-chain activities.

* Contributions: Developers and early supporters who contributed to the WalletConnect ecosystem (e.g., via GitHub) were also eligible.

* Registration: Participants generally needed to register their profile on the official airdrop page, connect a wallet (especially a mobile wallet via WalletConnect), and demonstrate activity before a specific snapshot date (e.g., September 12, 2024, for Season 1).

* Scoring system: Eligibility and the amount of tokens received were determined by an internal scoring mechanism based on network usage, on-chain activity, and software contributions.
