Wormhole (Twitter: https://twitter.com/wormholecrypto) is a cross chain messaging protocol. It recently raised $225 million at a $2.5 billion valuation. To put this into perspective, LayerZero, another cross-chain messaging protocol, currently holds a valuation of $3 billion.
Wormhole’s ecosystem is relatively small. We summarized a few interesting protocols that you might want to interact with for the potential Wormhole airdrop.

We only recommend to use the Portal bridge as it’s considered the “official” frontend for Wormhole but it comes with a bit more complexity compared to other bridges.
When you bridge assets using Portal, the USDC token you receive may not be ready to use right away. To make it usable, you will need to perform a swap at jup.ag (for Solana) to get usable USDC.
For example, bridging USDC from BNB Chain to Solana with Portal Bridge will give you USD Coin (Portal from BSC) that you’ll need to swap for the normal USDC.
