  Wrapped ETH, or wETH, is a tokenized version of Ethereum that can be used on decentralized exchanges and in decentralized finance (DeFi) applications. It is created by depositing ETH into a smart contract and receiving an equivalent amount of wETH in return. This allows users to trade and interact with Ethereum-based assets in a more efficient and compatible manner. Unlike regular ETH, wETH is an ERC-20 token, which means it can be easily integrated into DeFi protocols and traded on decentralized exchanges like Uniswap and SushiSwap.

  Wrapped ETH is like a bridge between the Ethereum blockchain and other blockchain networks. It enables users to utilize their ETH in various DeFi applications and decentralized exchanges that are built on different blockchains. By wrapping ETH, users can unlock the potential of their assets and participate in the growing DeFi ecosystem. It's important to note that wETH is always backed by an equal amount of ETH, ensuring its value and liquidity.
