Common claim failures may occur due to:

I'm having trouble claiming my tokens​

If you're unable to claim your WCT airdrop, you can opt to receive your tokens through direct distribution instead of the standard claim process.

To use this alternative method:

  1. Connect to your profile using the recipient address.
  2. Click on the "Change Address" button.
  3. Accept the terms and conditions.
  4. Connect an OP mainnet wallet.
Important

Once you choose this option, you won't be able to use the standard claim process, but you can update your provided address until the claim period ends.

The WalletConnect Foundation will send your tokens directly to this address on January 7th.

Important

Some wallets (like Argent) don't support OP Mainnet. If you're using one of these wallets, you can't claim your tokens directly. Instead, you can set a recipient address to receive your tokens on January 7th.

If your wallet doesn't support OP Mainnet, you can:

  1. Scroll to the page footer
  2. Click "Issues Connecting"
  3. Accept the terms and conditions and click 'Change Network'
  4. Select Ethereum network in the popup module
  5. Connect using WalletConnect
Troubleshooting Wallet Connection

If you're eligible you won't be able to claim, you can:

  1. View your airdrop status
  2. Set a new recipient address to recieve the airdrop on January 7th (must be OP Mainnet compatible)
