## About

Based in Delaware, US, and founded in 2021 by Pedro Gomes, WalletConnect, Inc., operates as a web3 tool provider company that connects decentralized applications to mobile wallets using end-to-end encryption by scanning a QR code. In January 2025, reown inc. raised USD 13 million in series B funding co-led by returning investors Union Square Ventures and 1kx Management, with participation from another returning investor Shopify Inc. New investors Global Digital Asset Holdings, Kraken Ventures, Crypto.com Capital, Figment VC, Kiln, Everstake Capital, BitGo Ventures, Fenbushi Capital, and other unspecified investors also participated in the round.

The company offers an open-source tool, the web3 standard, that helps cryptocurrency users enable a mobile wallet to easily connect to decentralized web applications like Etherscan, Uniswap, Zapper, and many more. The company provides software development kits (SDKs) that are integrated with JavaScript, iOS/Swift, and android/Kotlin.

The company plans to use the March funding to scale wallet interoperability and develop a decentralized Web3 messaging layer.
