What is Wild Goat Coin?

Wild Goat Coin (WGC) is a permissionless, omnichain digital asset designed to function as a neutral, borderless currency across blockchain ecosystems.

WGC maintains a single global supply that can move natively between supported networks without reliance on custodial bridges, centralized treasuries, or discretionary control.

Its supply is deflationary by design. Trading fees generated through core liquidity pools are routed to on-chain mechanisms that acquire and permanently burn WGC.

Omnichain-Native Architecture

WGC transfers between chains using a burn-and-mint model:

• tokens are burned on the source chain
• tokens are minted on the destination chain

This approach:

• removes custodial risk
• avoids wrapped token representations
• preserves full fungibility across networks

As a result, WGC functions as a single currency across multiple execution environments rather than a collection of bridged assets.

Markets & Liquidity

WGC is deployed across dozens of networks. Permanent core liquidity is concentrated on:

• Base
• HyperEVM
• zkSync Era

These pools form the backbone of WGC’s price discovery and deflationary mechanisms. Additional markets can be created permissionlessly on any supported chain without centralized approval.

History

Wild Goat Coin originated as an experimental memecoin on Solana in late 2023.

The launch of WGC V3 on April 5th, 2025 marked the transition to a fully unified, omnichain-native architecture. Earlier versions relied on wrapped-token bridges, which introduced fragmentation and custodial risk. V3 eliminated these constraints by adopting a single-supply interoperability model.

All wallets holding 1,000+ WGC V2 at the time of the snapshot received a 1:1 airdrop.

Support for earlier token versions is now discontinued.
