According to Pedro Gomes on Twitter, WalletConnect has officially integrated support for Solana, enabling seamless connectivity between Solana-based dApps and a wide range of crypto wallets (source: @pedrouid, May 9, 2025). This integration streamlines DeFi trading, increases liquidity access, and enhances cross-chain user experience. Traders can now interact with Solana dApps using WalletConnect-compatible wallets, making it easier to execute trades, manage NFTs, and participate in new Solana-based protocols, potentially leading to higher trading volumes and increased demand for SOL. This move is expected to boost Solana's ecosystem growth and expand DeFi trading opportunities across multiple platforms.
