View ChartWirex Token (WXT) is the native utility token of the Wirex platform, a crypto wallet and payment ecosystem that offers cards, exchange services, yield products, and global transfers. WXT is designed as a multi-blockchain cryptocurrency that provides holders with access to exclusive crypto rewards and decentralized finance ecosystems. It operates primarily across the Stellar Network and the Ethereum blockchain, with additional association to the Avalanche C-Chain. With a total supply of 10 billion WXT, the token functions as a universal fee and reward unit within the Wirex app and beyond. The project launched in 2019 and has since undergone significant infrastructure developments, including a major migration of 80% of its supply to Ethereum in 2021 and the introduction of a new litepaper in July 2026 outlining a stablecoin architecture and the upcoming Wirex One launch.
According to CoinDesk, Nereus Protocol holds 50% of the total supply, while the remaining 50% is within the community and ecosystem. The token is positioned as a utility token, not a security token, and its value is not linked to the performance of Wirex. To exchange WXT for another currency, customers must hold a minimum of $300 USD worth of WXT.
Wirex is a London-based company founded by Dmitry Lazarichev. The CEO is Pavel Matveev, who has prior experience as an independent consultant at Société Générale and serves as a Strategy and Product Advisor at COCA Wallet. The core team consists of nine members, including the CEO, who has been active in the industry for years. Detailed public information about the broader development team and advisors is currently limited.
WXT operates as a multi-blockchain cryptocurrency, primarily utilizing the Stellar Network and the Ethereum blockchain. In 2021, 80% of the total supply was migrated to Ethereum to leverage its capabilities for DeFi applications. Splitting the token between Stellar and Ethereum enables increased power, efficiency, and flexibility, bridging the gap between payments and decentralized finance. When transferring WXT via Stellar, users must use a unique memo and a Stellar or federation address. The token is also associated with the Avalanche C-Chain. Wirex's new litepaper introduces a stablecoin architecture that functions as a settlement layer not tied to any single chain, designed to work across multiple chains.
WXT is distinguished by its multi-blockchain architecture, which spans Stellar, Ethereum, and Avalanche. This design provides flexibility and access to both traditional payment infrastructure and emerging DeFi ecosystems. As the native token of the Wirex platform, WXT is integrated into a suite of products including cards, exchange services, yield products, and global transfers. The token serves as a universal fee and reward unit, enabling users to save on exchange and withdrawal fees. Its utility within the X-tras rewards program, which pays out in WXT, further embeds it into the platform's ecosystem. Wirex describes itself as simple, secure, and user-centric, with WXT positioned as a large-scale cryptocurrency that guarantees holders investment security.
WXT serves multiple functions within the Wirex ecosystem. It acts as a universal fee and reward unit, helping customers save money on exchange fees and withdrawal fees. The token provides access to the X-tras rewards program, which includes Cryptoback™ rewards and a Savings Bonus feature, all paid out in WXT. Customers can buy and use WXT in the Wirex app by exchanging crypto or traditional currency. Holding WXT opens up access to decentralized finance opportunities. The token is widely used within the Wirex app and on other cryptocurrency platforms, and it is available for conversion against numerous fiat currencies including AUD, BRL, CAD, EUR, GBP, HKD, RUB, SGD, TWD, and KRW.
The Wirex ecosystem continues to evolve with several key developments. In July 2026, Wirex introduced a new litepaper and announced the upcoming launch of Wirex One. The litepaper also detailed Wirex's stablecoin architecture, a settlement layer designed to work across multiple chains without being tied to any single one. The X-tras rewards program offers three flexible price plans to unlock benefits ranging from Cryptoback™ rewards to the Savings Bonus feature. Wirex maintains an active community through its Discord server, blog, and social media channels including X, Facebook, and YouTube. Historically, Wirex was the world's first platform for corporate cryptocurrency payments and launched seven new fiat currencies and five new cryptocurrencies between 2014 and 2019.
WXT is not a mineable cryptocurrency. It operates as a token on established blockchains including Stellar, Ethereum, and Avalanche, rather than relying on a proof-of-work mining mechanism. There is no public information available regarding staking mechanisms for WXT. Users primarily acquire WXT by purchasing it on supported exchanges or by exchanging other cryptocurrencies or traditional currencies within the Wirex app. To purchase WXT, customers need a verified Wirex account. The token is distributed through platform rewards and is available on secondary markets.
Keeping WXT safe requires standard cryptocurrency security practices. Since WXT operates on multiple blockchains including Stellar and Ethereum, users should ensure they use compatible wallets and correct addresses when transferring tokens. When transferring via Stellar, a unique memo and the Stellar or federation address must be used to avoid loss of funds. Users should enable two-factor authentication on their Wirex accounts and any associated exchange accounts. Storing large amounts of WXT in a hardware wallet is recommended for enhanced security. Users should be aware that crypto markets are volatile, and WXT is estimated as 1.92% volatile. Technical analysis ratings have shown sell signals across daily, weekly, and monthly timeframes. As with any digital asset, users should never share private keys or seed phrases and should remain cautious of phishing attempts.
