Qubic Launches QBridge Token
Qubic launched an Ethereum bridge (QBridge) enabling $wQUBIC as an ERC‑20 token to add liquidity and DeFi access to its ecosystem — a move aimed at unlocking tradability and utility for crypto‑savvy investors. The launch is a reminder that tokenized bridge products are advancing options available to interested HNW clients. (x.com)
Qubic's QBridge went live on March 21, 2026, per the project's event listing and contemporaneous market coverage. (coinmarketcal.com)) QBridge is deployed as a non‑custodial cross‑chain bridge that uses a lock‑and‑mint architecture to move value between Qubic and Ethereum. (qubic.org)) Under that architecture, QUBIC tokens are locked inside the QBridge smart contract on Qubic while an equivalent amount of wQUBIC is minted on Ethereum with a maintained 1:1 backing. (qubic.org)) The team and event listings state the bridge uses audited smart‑contract infrastructure and multisig governance rather than a simple wrapped‑token custody model. (coinmarketcal.com)) Market commentary from KuCoin described the rollout as an interoperability upgrade that brings Qubic’s feeless native token to Ethereum and advised traders to "scale in gradually" as options flow and liquidity dynamics evolve.
