WUFFI wallet

What is WUFFI (WUF)?

A dog mascot and a community that calls itself the WUF Pack: WUFFI (WUF) is a meme coin. It began on the WAX blockchain and is used across a set of games under the WUFFI name, with staking tiers inside them and periodic buy-and-burn rounds funded by game spending. What you hold is a token that people trade, tip, and collect.

WUF came to Solana in 2024 as an SPL token. On Solana a token does not simply sit at your address the way an ERC-20 does: the first time WUF arrives, a token account is created for it, and the creation costs a small amount of SOL that stays locked as rent while the account exists. Every transfer out is paid in SOL as well, so a wallet that holds only WUF and no SOL cannot send anything until a little SOL is added.

The token also exists on Base. This is the same WUF, but from a holder's point of view it behaves like an ERC-20: gas is paid in ETH on Base, there is no token account, and a Solana address cannot receive it. Anyone sending WUF between the two sides has to go through a bridge; a direct transfer from a Base address to a Solana one, or the reverse, does not exist.

Because the same ticker lives on two chains with two different address formats, the practical question for a WUF holder is which side each balance is on and which side a transfer leaves from. In the Tangem app the Solana balance and the Base balance are shown as two separate entries, and a transfer is built inside the one you pick, with its network named on the screen before the card is tapped to sign. Supported networks in Tangem (2): Base, Solana. For a token that lives on two chains, having each version of WUF on its own line, next to the SOL or ETH that pays for moving it, keeps the split visible instead of leaving it to memory.
