- Open the linked Orca market. Check that the token address matches the one above. Names and tickers alone do not identify a token.
- Use a Solana-compatible wallet. Fund it with the asset you intend to swap and enough SOL for network fees.
- Review the swap before confirming. Check the amount you will receive, fees, slippage and price impact. You receive wECX in your Solana wallet.
Never enter your recovery phrase on a market website.
Already holding the older Beta token?
wbECX is a different token. The project’s official notice says it will no longer be redeemable for real ECX after 31 October 2026. Read the Beta notice ↗
2. Bitcoin holders and earlier programmes
Bitcoin holders
The mainnet fork is planned to copy BTC balances at 1 BTC : 1 ECX. Your BTC stays on Bitcoin. Access depends on who controls the keys; exchange customers should check their provider’s policy. Read the Bitcoin-holder guide ↗
Private fundraising
Earlier fundraising was conducted privately. There was no public crowdfund. Trading wECX on Orca is separate from those private investment agreements.
Community Solana token
The independently created Solana memecoin is separate from wECX. Its limited, top-15-holder redemption programme has its own rules. Read the programme details ↗

4. Risks
eCash is an experimental Bitcoin fork. The project may fail, and you can lose the entire amount you spend. Launch timing, trading availability and liquidity can change.
Wrapped tokens add dependence on the issuer, custody arrangements and redemption process. Check those terms before buying. A token address or pool listing is not proof of reserves or a guarantee of redemption.
There is no fixed purchase price or guaranteed return. Use the current market quote and check the price impact of your trade.
