What is W+?

The W+ (Premium Accounts) program is designed to foster user loyalty, trust restoration, and long–term engagement within the W Chain ecosystem. The program provides tiered benefits to both legacy users impacted by past events and new users joining the platform. It incentivizes participation across the W Swap, W Bridge, and WAVE Farm dApps through a structured DRIP (W–Points) reward system, subscription–based access, and redeemable NFTs. 

Getting Started with W+
  • Head over to W Chain’s product page for W+

How You Earn W-Points
  • Swapping on W-Swap 
    • Every time you swap, you earn points based on the swap value. 
    • Formula: (Swap Value in USD / WCO Price) × 0.0005 
  • Bridging into W-Chain (Inbound Only) 
    • Moving assets from another chain into W-Chain? That’s extra points
    • Depositing into WAVE Farm 
    • Formula: (Deposit Value in USD / WCO Price) × 0.00001 
  • Depositing into WAVE Farm
    • Earn points when you stake liquidity in WAVE Farm. 
    • Formula: (Deposit Value in USD / WCO Price) × 0.00001 
  • Harvesting from WAVE Farm 
    • Claim your farming rewards? You earn more points here too
    • Formula: (Harvest Value in USD / WCO Price) × 0.01 

Once you’ve built up your W-Points, you can mint them into DRIP tokens. Any unclaimed W-Points will reset in the next month.

  • DRIP is a non-transferrable ERC20 token that you can redeem for WCO Airdrop and spend on other supported protocols. Points reset to 0 on the 1st of each month but minting them into DRIP preserves their value permanently. 
  • You need an active subscription to convert your accumulated Points into DRIP tokens. 
W Crystal NFTs

With DRIP tokens, you can mint them into W Crystal NFTs. (min. 5,000 DRIP) 

  • Crystal NFTs are like holding a future contract. When you mint a Crystal with DRIP tokens, you’re essentially locking them for a future reward in WCO. 
  • Each Crystal stores the amount of DRIP spent and has a maturity timestamp set to 180 days from minting. 

Maturity Options 

  • Diamond Cut (180 days) 
    • Wait until maturity and receive 1:1 WCO for every DRIP spent. This burns the NFT and gives you the full value. 
  • Break Crystal (30+ days) 
    • Break early after 30 days and receive a prorated amount based on time elapsed (elapsed days / 180 days × DRIP amount). 

Additional Benefits 

  • Transferable: Trade your Crystals with other users 
  • Collateral: Use in DeFi platforms as collateral 
  • Consumables: Future items can reduce maturity time 
  • Marketplace: Integration with trading platforms 
Raffle
  • Every day, one lucky player wins the prize pool. Simple. Transparent. On-chain. 

Buy Your Tickets 

  • Buy tickets using WCO, DRIP, USDT, or USDC. 
  • Each ticket costs the equivalent of $1, buy as many as you like to boost your winning chances. This example will show the purchase of 10 tickets with WCO. 

Daily Rounds & Growing Pool 

  • Each round lasts 24 hours and starts with a $10 prize pool. 

  • Every ticket purchased in that round adds to the pool, so the more players, the bigger the rewards.
     
  • Once tickets have been purchased, you will be able to view the transaction on the explorer and watch the prize pool increase in real time. 

The Daily Draw 

  • At 00:00 UTC daily, a draw takes place: 
    • 90% of the prize pool goes to the winner 
    • 10% goes to the W Chain Treasury 
  • Once the draw ends, a new round begins instantly. 
  • The first 10 transactions in each round earn 10% cashback in DRIP, no matter how many tickets are bought in each transaction. 

Fairness You Can Verify 

  • We use drand, a decentralized, publicly verifiable randomness protocol. Every result can be checked on-chain for full transparency.
