Jupiter’s launchpad has officially introduced $WEN on Friday, unveiling details on who can claim this Solana-based meme coin.

In the crypto sphere, the question “Wen token?” is a familiar refrain with rarely satisfying answers. However, the launch of the WEN token is now a reality, thanks to Solana decentralized finance aggregator Jupiter. The long-awaited meme coin made its debut on Friday through Jupiter’s launchpad, providing concrete details for a token launch that had been teased in recent weeks. The $WEN token release is a collaboration between DeFi/NFT protocol Ovols and Jupiter’s innovative token launchpad.
Meow, the pseudonymous founder of Jupiter, shared additional information in a Thursday morning Twitter post. In a poetic gesture titled “A Love Letter to Wen Bros,” Meow minted an NFT using the Wen New Standard (WNS) token standard.
This NFT was then fractionalized into 1 trillion WEN tokens, with 70% of the supply distributed equally among over a million eligible Solana wallets. The claiming process began at 10 a.m. ET on Friday, January 26. Despite its fractionalized origin, the official website assures that WEN will “trade like normal Solana tokens.”
So, who’s eligible to claim WEN? According to Meow, eligible wallets include active Jupiter users from the past six months, Solana Saga smartphone owners, and holders of NFTs from Ovols and “several top NFT collections.” Although full details are yet to be confirmed, the Wen Foundation, led by the Ovols NFT community, aims to contribute to the Solana community’s development of public goods.
