Гаманець для Wrapped XDC

What is Wrapped XDC (WXDC)?

WXDC exists because XDC, the coin that powers the XDC Network, is not a token contract. Native coins and tokens follow different rules on-chain, and most smart contracts - pools, lending markets, anything that has to move a balance on a user's behalf - are written for the token interface. Wrapping deposits native XDC into a contract that issues the same amount of WXDC back, one for one, and unwrapping reverses it.

That makes WXDC less an asset of its own than a container for XDC that contracts can handle. Its backing is whatever sits in the wrapper contract, so the two move together, and there is no separate issuance to track.

A few things trip holders up. WXDC and XDC show up as two distinct lines in a wallet, and having one does not mean you can spend the other: network fees on XDC Network are always paid in native XDC, so a wallet holding only WXDC cannot broadcast anything, including the unwrap. Keep a working amount of XDC beside it. Addresses on this network are also commonly written with an xdc prefix in place of 0x, which is the same address in a different notation.

Tangem lists the native coin and the wrapped token separately, and the transfer screen shows which of the two the card is about to sign for - worth a glance before you approve, since the tickers differ by one letter. Supported networks in Tangem (1): XDC Network. Holding both in one card keeps the fee coin and the wrapped balance together, which is exactly what unwrapping needs.
