In the Web3 ecosystem, airdrops have always been a hot topic. However, the current airdrop model has many issues and is facing significant changes.

Many users equate connecting wallets with obtaining free qualifications and see scanning the code as an opportunity to board the airdrop free ride train. This mindset has led to a proliferation of 'connect to farm' scripts, with users opening multiple wallets and frequently performing connection operations.

This behavior has had a serious impact on the project team. It not only increases connection costs but also reduces the proportion of real users, ultimately wasting ecological resources and hindering genuine community building.

To address this issue, WalletConnect has proposed an innovative concept of transforming 'connection behavior' into a 'credit system'. Under this new system, each connection generates a unique behavioral fingerprint, and each signature and interaction will leave a traceable path. Multi-address, same device, and wallets lacking real transactions will be marked as 'low connection quality'. Only accounts that maintain stable connections over a long period will be able to earn 'connection credit points'.

The scoring basis of this system will be built on the WCT (WalletConnect Token) trust credential mechanism. WCT will be closely associated with connection behavior, and multi-account bulk connections will not be able to enhance credit value. Wallets marked with low connection credit will automatically be restricted by DApps. Users can use WCT to 'weight' their connection behavior, increasing the probability of obtaining a whitelist. At the same time, project parties can also use WCT to incentivize 'high connection quality' users, such as offering exclusive Airdrops.

In the future, airdrops for certain projects may only be open to addresses with 'WCT connection credit value greater than 80'. This means that users no longer need to frequently engage in meaningless connection operations, but rather to establish their credit through long-term, stable, and genuine interactions.

This reform will fundamentally change the current airdrop ecosystem, making it fairer, more orderly, and more efficient. It can not only effectively curb "wool-pulling" behaviors but also incentivize users to engage more deeply in the projects, thereby promoting the healthy development of the entire Web3 ecosystem.

With the introduction of this new mechanism, we can expect to see more high-quality projects and more active community participation. This will undoubtedly inject new vitality into the future of Web3, driving the entire industry toward a more mature and rational direction.
