## Application Profile
#### 1. What is your motivation for submitting this application?
The purpose of this application is to provide JET token holders the information necessary to evaluate ETH(Wormhole) use as a collateral on Jet Protocol, and conclude the series of confirmation votes before welcoming new assets to the protocol.



#### 2. What is your association to the proposed asset?
I am a community manager for Wormhole. Wormhole is a cross-chain interoperability protocol which has an application built on top of it called the Portal Bridge. The Portal bridge enables tokens such as ETH to be sent cross-chain to supported networks such as Solana, Polygon, Binance chain and more!

#### 3. What are the key benefits to the Jet Protocol for onboarding the asset? 
ETH(Wormhole) creates an opportunity for users of Jet Protocol to utilize this asset as the foundation for their defi strategy, while also welcoming new, multi-chain defi users to Solana. Jet Protocol gains an asset that may help support growing the protocol’s TVL.

#### 4. What are the known limitations of the asset?
ETH(Wormhole) does not have the same amount of liquidity as the native Ethereum network. There is also risk introduced anytime an asset is bridged from their native blockchain to Solana.
