World Mobile Token (WMTX) is the native utility token of the World Mobile Chain (WMC), a blockchain-powered, decentralised mobile network designed to deliver affordable and inclusive connectivity. WMTX underpins a DePIN (Decentralised Physical Infrastructure Network) model where users, businesses, and operators can deploy network infrastructure—such as AirNodes and EarthNodes—and earn rewards directly from real-world telecom usage.
Unlike traditional telecom operators that centralise infrastructure and profit, World Mobile enables a community-powered network, particularly focused on bringing internet access to underserved and unconnected regions. WMTX is used for gas on the World Mobile Chain, for staking to secure the network, and to settle service fees generated through mobile data, calls, and other connectivity services.
World Mobile Chain is a telecom-optimised Layer 3 blockchain, EVM-compatible and built on Base, offering high-throughput, low-latency performance tailored for telecommunications. Earlier iterations of the chain were built as a Cardano sidechain, and some components of that legacy architecture remain, especially in the consensus mechanism design.
At the heart of the network are two key node types:
The network uses a proof-of-stake consensus model inspired by Cardano’s Ouroboros, securing on-chain transactions and finalising service events like calls, texts, and data usage. All key activity is transparently recorded on-chain, while sensitive telecom metadata is handled off-chain via private data vaults.
WMTX powers the entire World Mobile ecosystem as its gas, reward, and staking token. All transactions on the World Mobile Chain—whether related to data sessions, calls, or dApp usage—are settled in WMTX. The token is also used to:
Smart contracts on the WMC manage staking, service-level agreements, and dApp interactions. WMTX also exists cross-chain, with bridges and contracts on Base, Ethereum, and BNB Chain, making it a flexible, interoperable asset.
WMTX supports a wide range of use cases in the decentralised mobile and DeFi ecosystems:
World Mobile sits at the intersection of several key sectors:
These cross-industry applications position WMTX as a key asset in both Web3 infrastructure and real-world telecom evolution.
World Mobile has built a robust partner ecosystem to support its global rollout and token adoption:
These integrations help WMTX gain visibility in both the telecom and crypto communities, strengthening its utility and adoption.
World Mobile was founded to solve the problem of global digital inequality, aiming to connect the nearly 4 billion people still lacking affordable internet access. It originally launched with the WMT token on a Cardano sidechain, and conducted early commercial pilots in underserved regions to validate the DePIN telecom model.
Key milestones include:
From its early days as a Cardano sidechain, World Mobile Chain has matured into a full-featured, EVM-compatible Layer 3 running on Base. Its telecom module handles signalling, routing, and quality-of-service (QoS) metrics, turning real-world mobile traffic into on-chain revenue streams.
In the market, WMTX has achieved:
With a capped supply of 2 billion tokens, over 700 million in circulation, and a strong mission to democratise telecom access, WMTX is uniquely positioned at the intersection of infrastructure, connectivity, and decentralised finance.
