Important Update for WCTC Users

Important Update for WCTC Users

We’re sharing important updates to our WCTC users that encourage you to take action to enhance multichain functionality and improve your user experience for the token. 

Here's what you need to know.

Understanding WCTC (old) vs. WCTC (new)

Two versions of WCTC now exist on Ethereum:

Wrapped CTC (old): The original version of WCTC, and the one you currently use. This token will continue to function for the foreseeable future, and there will be no immediate forced migration.

WCTC (old): https://etherscan.io/token/0xaafec8e08d524d534327fa13fb306f440b5f88eb 

Wrapped CTC (new): The updated version enables automatic transferring between the Creditcoin and Ethereum networks. We’ve improved the user experience of WCTC (new) so that you no longer have to use the Swap CTC tool and wait for manual swaps to process - hooray!

WCTC (new): https://etherscan.io/token/0xeB32AD88b09fB94129a8B972876Ad02EaAc91E53

BNB Smart Chain Integration

We’re also happy to share that WCTC (new) is now available on the BSC network!

Please take note of the official token contract address here: https://bscscan.com/token/0xeB32AD88b09fB94129a8B972876Ad02EaAc91E53

Why Transition to WCTC (new)?

We highly encourage users to transition to WCTC (new) for several important reasons:

  • Enhanced multichain capabilities: Easy transfers between three networks: Creditcoin, Ethereum, and BSC
  • Unified liquidity: WCTC (new) maintains consistent liquidity across all supported chains
  • Active trading infrastructure: Fresh liquidity has been provisioned for WCTC (new) on Uniswap and Penguinswap pools
Important: Liquidity for WCTC (old) will be responsibly deprecated on Uniswap over time. Please exercise caution when swapping WCTC (old) on Uniswap - stay aware of the current liquidity levels. In addition, we've removed the one-way transfer of CTC to WCTC (old) on our Swap CTC tool.

Swap CTC Re-Opens

When the latest WCTC (new) changes, we’re now resuming Swap CTC services, but only for the following pairs:

  • CTC (Ethereum) aka G-CRE -> CTC (Creditcoin)
  • WCTC (old) (Ethereum) -> CTC (Creditcoin)

How to Transfer from WCTC (old)

If you hold WCTC (old), you can use Swap CTC to convert to CTC:

  1. Send your WCTC (old) to the Creditcoin Foundation address: 0x737f5a5B55035f39A6E8a859a815Fd85760625b8
  2. The Foundation will process your request within 1 week
  3. You will receive CTC at a 1:1 ratio
