KWENTA Token Live on Base

The Kwenta token is live on Base! To kick off cross-chain season at Kwenta, we’ve begun expanding your options for what you can do with your Kwenta tokens. As an important first step in our cross-chain strategy, the Kwenta treasury is building liquidity with our partners at Aerodrome, surfacing the KWENTA token to a new cohort of users and building liquidity for future initiatives on Base.

Kwenta’s push to Base includes 2 steps: Celer enables the bridging of the KWENTA token, and an incentivized Aerodrome pool allows token holders to earn with their KWENTA tokens. This initiative gives Base users a chance to access KWENTA. In order to ensure an attractive yield for our LPs on Base, the Kwenta treasury has purchased an Aero veNFT to ensure voting power and emissions are directed toward the KWENTA/wETH pool.

Ready to participate with your KWENTA tokens? Simply follow the guide below to bridge and LP your KWENTA tokens to begin earning.

Bridging with Celer

KWENTA is now supported by the Celer Bridge, allowing Kwenta tokens to be bridged from Optimism to Base. If you’re ready to bridge, you can take these steps to move your KWENTA to Base.

Step 2: Select

  • Select the sending network as ``OP Mainnet`` and switch the receiving network to ``Base Mainnet``. Select the asset (KWENTA) and amount you like to bridge, hit Approve.

Note: by following the link above, your network and token should be automatically selected. Verify this by checking against the image below.

Step 3: Approve

  • Click "Approval" to approve the transactions on your wallet.
Once the Approval transaction is confirmed by the network, Transfer becomes available.
Once the Approval transaction is confirmed by the network, Transfer becomes available.

Step 4: Transfer

Step 5: Monitor

Step 5: Stake

IMPORTANT: Steps beyond this point are for staking your LP position. Doing so will forfeit trade fees earned from the Kwenta/wETH LP in favor of receiving aero emissions. Emissions for the KWENTA/wETH pair will not begin until the new aero epoch turns over midnight UTC on March 27th 2024.

  • Once emissions for the KWENTA/wETH pool have started LPoooors will need to stake their LP positions to receive emissions. Select how much of the LP position you want to stake (0%-100%) approve the contract to interact with your LP position and sign the transaction on-chain.
