ETH to ETH (Base)

Base is an Ethereum layer-2 network built with the OP Stack, the open-source framework behind Optimism. It is popular for consumer apps and low-cost payments. ETH on Base is a separate balance from ETH on Ethereum mainnet, so you move it with a cross-chain swap.

You send ETH on Ethereum to a deposit address and receive ETH on Base at the address you provide. HorseRouter compares partner exchanges and shows an estimate; a partner executes and settles the swap.

Before you swap

  • Fees on Base are paid in ETH, so the ETH you receive covers your first transactions on Base as well.
  • Most Ethereum wallets can show Base once the Base network is added; check the network name before you paste your 0x address.
  • You pay an Ethereum network fee when you send the ETH, from the ETH in your sending wallet.
  • Quotes are estimates, and blockchain transfers cannot be reversed.

How to swap ETH to ETH (Base)

  1. Select ETH as the asset you send and ETH (Base) as the asset you receive.
  2. Enter the amount to see an estimated quote, the estimated time and the fee.
  3. Paste your receiving Base address and check it carefully.
  4. Start the swap to get a deposit address, then send the exact asset to it from any wallet or exchange.
  5. A partner executes and settles the swap. The estimate can move within your slippage setting, and transfers cannot be reversed.

Frequently asked questions

Is ETH on Base the same as ETH on Ethereum?

It is the same asset, ETH, held on a different network. A balance on Base is not visible on Ethereum mainnet, and the other way round.

Do I need to add Base to my wallet?

Usually yes. Many wallets list Base as an available network; once it is added, your existing 0x address can receive ETH on Base.

Will I receive exactly the quoted amount?

Not necessarily. The quote is an estimate and can move within your slippage setting.
