Recently, the WalletConnect Foundation announced a major news that it will launch a new round of Token Airdrop on the Solana network. This airdrop will benefit active users in the Solana ecosystem, with a total of 5 million WCT tokens to be distributed.

This airdrop is another important initiative by the WalletConnect Foundation to expand blockchain support. Following the successful integration of Ethereum and Optimism, Solana has become the third major blockchain network supported. This decision not only demonstrates WalletConnect's confidence in the Solana ecosystem but also brings new opportunities for Solana users.

According to reports, the tokens for this Airdrop come from the 185 million WCT Airdrop pool established by the WalletConnect Foundation in September last year. This is the second large-scale Airdrop following the first round distribution of 50 million tokens in November last year. Based on the current price of WCT at about $0.60, the total value of this Airdrop is close to $3 million, which will undoubtedly bring considerable profits to eligible users.

To ensure the fairness and security of the Airdrop, the WalletConnect Foundation emphasizes the importance of the official claiming process. Users need to verify and claim through the officially designated website solana.walletconnect.network and connect to the claiming page using a compliant Solana wallet (such as Phantom or Solflare).

Although the specific qualification criteria have not been announced, based on previous Airdrop experiences, factors such as users' network usage, cross-chain activities, and past Airdrop behaviors may be considered. In addition, creating a profile and connecting the wallet via WalletConnect may also be necessary conditions. It is worth mentioning that Solana Mobile phone users might receive additional benefits due to their special status.

The WalletConnect Foundation has chosen to collaborate with important partners in the Solana ecosystem such as Phantom, Jupiter, Backpack, and Solflare to jointly advance this airdrop event. This collaboration model not only ensures the smooth progress of the airdrop but also helps to further promote the overall development of the Solana ecosystem.

This airdrop will undoubtedly inject new vitality into the Solana ecosystem, attracting more users to participate in ecosystem development. For Solana users, this is not only an opportunity to receive token rewards but also a great chance to witness and participate in the development of blockchain technology. As the event progresses, we look forward to seeing more innovative applications and user interactions emerge on the Solana platform.
