The introduction of <a href="https://coingape.com/wormhole-w-price-surges-10-amid-airdrop-and-major-exchange-listing/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Wormhole</a> perpetual futures on Coinbase will take place at 9:30 a.m. UTC on April 4. This is a pivotal development as it comes amid Wormhole, a leading cross-chain protocol, launching its highly anticipated W governance token. This milestone marks a significant leap forward for Wormhole in asserting its prominence within the DeFi sector.
However, the Coinbase International Exchange also hinted at a possible restraint for users globally. It noted that the perp futures listing will be accessible only in the regions where Wormhole trading is supported.
Ahead of the Coinbase announcement, major crypto exchanges disclosed their intentions to list the W token for trading. These include Binance, OKX, Bybit, Bitget, Gate.io, and Backpack. This widespread support from prominent exchanges underscores the industry’s recognition of Wormhole’s innovative protocol and the potential of its native token.
Moreover, Wormhole has taken a proactive approach to community engagement by offering an extensive airdrop program, with over 400,000 eligible wallets across various chains, including <a href="https://coingape.com/markets/why-solana-meme-coins-razed-down-the-most-on-april-2/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Solana</a> and Ethereum. The airdrop, which includes a substantial sum of 617.3 million W tokens, aims to reward early adopters and foster widespread adoption of the protocol.

Furthermore, the swift adoption of the W token by major exchanges has already resulted in a notable 10% price surge within a short trading period. This surge reflects the bullish sentiment prevailing in the market toward Wormhole’s cross-chain protocol. Moreover, it underscores W’s potential impact on the DeFi sector.
At press time, the Wormhole crypto traded at $1.415 in the market on Wednesday after the <a href="https://coingape.com/historic-2-billion-bitcoin-moved-by-us-government-to-coinbase/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Coinbase</a> announcement. Moreover, it reached a high of $1.860 across prominent exchanges. The circulation encompasses 1.8 billion tokens out of a total supply of 10 billion, contributing to a noteworthy market capitalization of $2.48 billion.
