W is the governance token of Wormhole, the cross-chain messaging protocol whose bridge carries a large share of Solana's wrapped-asset traffic — launched in an April 2024 multichain airdrop that ranks among the era's largest. The October 6, 2026 snapshot reads roughly $79.6 million of circulating market capitalization across 97,156 Solana holders on mint 85VBFQZC9TZkfaptBWjvUw7YbZjy52A6mjtPGjstQAmQ.
The supply picture has two layers. On-chain, both authorities are revoked and the creator-associated wallet holds under 0.01% — the SPL-level mechanics are fully clean. Above that sits the tokenomics layer: fully diluted value reads about $122.0 million against the $79.6 million circulating, so roughly a third of eventual supply is still locked and scheduled to arrive. Contract cleanliness and unlock pressure are different facts, and W carries the first without escaping the second.
Tracked on-chain liquidity is about $133 thousand — a fraction of a percent of the cap, the usual footprint of a token whose real volume trades on centralized listings across several chains at once. Solana's pools serve retail size; treat them as one door into a much larger room.
The 97K-holder figure descends from the airdrop and should be weighed as distribution breadth, not as 97K live bidders — the holder-distribution guide shows how to read a base like this against concentration. Figures are the October 6, 2026 snapshot; the scan above refreshes them live.

FAQ
Is W a safe token?
As of the 2026-09-26 snapshot, W scores 92/100 (grade A) on HostDeFi's on-chain read — based on renounced mint authority, renounced freeze authority, liquidity of $132.96K and 97,156 holders, with the creator wallet holding <0.01% of supply. That grades contract and market structure, not price direction — a clean read is not a guarantee, so re-scan before trading, since on-chain state can change.
Can you sell W, or is it a honeypot?
On Solana, the lever that can block a sale is the freeze authority, and W's is renounced as of 2026-09-26 — no one can freeze your balance to trap you in. With $132.96K of liquidity there's a pool to sell into, though how cleanly depends on your size against that depth.
Who holds most of W?
The wallet that created W holds <0.01% of the supply as of 2026-09-26 — a small stake, under the 5% the scanners flag. That sits alongside a holder base of 97,156; a broad base lowers the odds that any one seller can steer the price, but the creator's share is the number to watch first.
Can W's supply be inflated?
No — the mint authority is renounced as of the 2026-09-26 snapshot, so no new supply can be created and the circulating figure is a ceiling.
What is the W contract address?
The W mint address on Solana is 85VBFQZC9TZkfaptBWjvUw7YbZjy52A6mjtPGjstQAmQ. Always verify a token by its contract address, not its name or ticker — scam clones copy tickers, but the address is unique.
Where can you buy W safely?
Run the live on-chain scan at the top of this page first; if W clears, you can swap it here directly. Whatever venue you use, match the contract address (85VBFQZC9TZkfaptBWjvUw7YbZjy52A6mjtPGjstQAmQ) exactly before trading — copying the ticker is how clone scams catch buyers, and the address is the one field they can't fake.
