WalletConnect Extends Its WCT Token to the Solana Blockchain

As part of the rollout, a $3 million WCT airdrop has been announced for active Solana users.

WalletConnect has extended its token, WCT, to the Solana blockchain. This marks the protocol’s third major integration after Ethereum and Optimism.

As part of the rollout, a $3 million WCT airdrop is being launched for active Solana users.

The launch leverages Wormhole’s Native Token Transfers (NTT), enabling WCT to move smoothly across Ethereum, Optimism, and now Solana without wrapping. This cross-chain compatibility is a step toward making WalletConnect more accessible across ecosystems and further strengthening its multichain identity.

To celebrate the expansion, the WalletConnect Foundation is distributing 5 million WCT to eligible users of top Solana apps.

The launch of the WalletConnect token, WCT to Solana is a significant step forward for the protocol, expanding its reach and forging deeper connections within the vibrant Solana ecosystem.

To celebrate this milestone and express gratitude to the active Solana community, the WalletConnect Foundation is distributing 5 million WCT to eligible users of the leading Solana apps.

The Foundation invites users of Phantom, Jupiter, Backpack, and Solflare to learn more about the airdrop and how to claim their WCT allocation in the coming weeks.

The claim window is expected to open this summer, providing ample time for eligible users to collect their tokens.

This expansion also brings the potential for deeper integration with Solana-native projects such as Drift, Kamino, and Marinade, which already support the WalletConnect AppKit SDK, to interact with the WCT token itself, opening the door for future governance participation, token trading, and ecosystem utility.

Crucially, this deployment does not affect WCT’s total supply. It is being managed through a "burn-and-mint" model via Wormhole to ensure token consistency.

In the next phase of expansion, the goal is to bring WCT support to additional chains, particularly those within the Optimism Superchain network.

The priority is on platforms that are actively engaging wallet users and fostering vibrant developer ecosystems, ultimately aiming to expand the reach and impact of Web3.
