WAM on Solana and the future
WAM is entering the Solana ecosystem through bridging the BSC WAM token.
We made this decision for several reasons:
- Solana is ripe for gaming projects using AI
- It has a strong, active degen ( love'em ) community
- The liquidity is there
The correct WAM token address on Solana is 7hdeo5QciUF8S2vfsx6uRJkdNVADBU3DDcXW4zjDcMin and you can start trading the WAM / SOL pair on the Raydium pool here https://bit.ly/solwam.
On Solana, the WAM token is bridged through Wormhole hence you will see a ( Wormhole ) tag on the token when searching for it on Dexscreener or on other DEXes. We chose this route for a practical reason: the WAM token is native to BNB chain and there will ever be 1 Billion tokens ( or less through burning ). When you bridge your tokens to Solana, the BNBChain token gets locked in the Wormhole contract and minted on Solana or the reverse ( burned on Solana ) when the tokens come the other way.
There was no reason to have native tokens with their own mint / burn functionality on Solana ( or any other future chains for that matter ) since each contract requires audits, they present extra points of failure and are a mess to manage.
The bridging is automated and the supply on each side is handled by the Wormhole contracts. This makes it easy to bridge the tokens from BNBChain and Solana back and forth.
With this update we're also revamping our bridge. The new UX and UI was made to eliminate as many human errors as possible ( as many as we can count that is ) and to offer visibility into the bridging process.
The bridge goes both ways for BNB <> SOL and one way ( for the moment ) BNB < MVX
