Is it cheaper to go Base to Ethereum or Base to another L2?

If your destination is another L2, the direct L2 to L2 route usually costs less than hopping through Ethereum mainnet. Compare both before you decide.

How much will I actually receive?

The table shows the exact amount you will receive per route, fees included. That is the number that lands in your wallet, not an approximation.

Bridge Base to ETH

Heading from Base back to Ethereum mainnet is the return leg most people run when they want their funds on the base layer. Four providers quote it: LI.FI, Relay, deBridge and Squid, and their rates rarely line up exactly.

The table shows the exact amount you will receive on Ethereum, the time and the fees per route, with our 0.08% commission already in the figure.

One thing to plan for: activity on Ethereum mainnet costs more gas than on Base. If your goal is only to reach another L2, routing L2 to L2 directly is usually cheaper than passing through mainnet. The compare page lets you check that in a couple of clicks.

You sign from your own wallet on both ends. We never hold your funds. Your wallet, your funds.
