Mercury tokens have already been distributed to WCT holders over the weekend. sigwo is going to reveal the details about mercury in the next few days.
I'm holding my waves in the local wallet and im seeing these tokens inside:
Mercury, Ripto Bux, KISS and WBTC.

anyone have any idea what those are?
where can I use them?

Cant find any information on them.

WBTC = Bitcoin from the proportion of the amount of WCT you received as a dividend for holding Waves or bought from Tidex from a sale of Byteball
KISS = toiletpaper
Ripto Bux = cross-platform Slack tipping token
Mercury = ?

Mercury is a token of sigwo who developed Darcrus. He will reveal informations about Mercury in a few days.
From Sigwo's announcement today
As some of you know, I distributed Mercury tokens on the Waves platform earlier this week. I could not give any notice, as I airdropped Mercury to any Waves address that had at least 1 Wave. Mercury will be a Waves-powered provenance token, cross-chain time-stamping from Jupiter to Waves. The reason I feel this is a necessity is for public blockchain provenance because Jupiter is a 100% permissioned ledger by nature. Sigwo Technologies packages Jupiter tokens for the businesses that purchase Titan, Storm, or any other offering I have built on Jupiter. Sigwo Technologies will have automatic stamping of Jupiter blockhashes every 10 Waves blocks, projected to start April 1st, 2017 as Waves now accepts tokens for transaction fees for configured nodes.
So why did I airdrop? I want for the cross-pollination to be worth something, the tokens needed to be freely distributed and publicly traded. I will reach to Tidex, Cryptopia, and other Waves token friendly exchanges to ensure they can be bought and sold. These markets will drive the worth of cross-pollination and show the way for other platforms to achieve multifaceted provenance. Waves got airdropped because, well, they already had Waves. Also, the addresses that are 10,000 or more can be Waves nodes. These nodes are essential for Mercury to be added to the Waves blockchain. I will be reaching out to Waves node operators to ensure Mercury is added to their accepted fee configuration.
