Instructions for transfering tokens to Boba Network

There are two methods for transferring tokens to the Boba Network:

  • Option 1: Through the Coin98 Super Wallet
  • Option 2: Through the Boba Bridge (PC)

To make it easier for you to visualize, I'll walk you through the process for the two methods listed above.

Option 1: Use the Coin98 Super Wallet to transfer tokens to Boba Network

It is necessary to have a non-custodial wallet to store tokens and interact with DeFi. Coin98 Super Wallet might be a suitable choice for you.

First, you should have an Boba Network Wallet to store your tokens, this article will be usefull for you: How to create & use Boba Network Wallet

This is a guide to transferring coins and tokens from the Ethereum mainnet to the Boba Network. You can also follow the same steps if you want to transfer coins and tokens from Ethereum to Arbitrum or Optimism and vice versa with Coin98 Wallet.

Step 1: On the Coin98 Wallet main interface, choose Swap.

Step 2: Select “Space Gate" to start bridging. After that, select the blockchain you want to convert.

Then you need to choose some information below:

  • Select the wallet that holds the converting tokens and the receiving wallet on the corresponding blockchain.
  • Select the token you want to convert. We will take ETH for this example.

Step 3: Choose the converted amount by sliding the bar. Before the swap, please kindly check the information in the Review Order section:

  • Deposit timeout: Estimated conversion time.
  • Min/ Max amount: Min/Max number in this transaction.
  • Gwei: Gas Price is calculated in Gwei. This is the gas fee you need for this transaction. You can adjust gwei by sliding the bar to the desired gas fee level. The default gas fee on Coin98 Wallet is set at the standard rate for the fastest speed at the most reasonable cost.

Kindly check the information before confirming this transaction. Choose Convert to confirm it and click Done.

Boba Network Information

How much is the gas fee when transferring tokens to Boba Network?

There are 2 types, "Bridge to L2" or "Fast Bridge to L2". The bridge usually costs twice as much in gas fee as compared to the fast bridge.

In the past, I used to use the normal Bridge and spent quite a bit on gas fees (at that time $ETH = 4500$, Gwei 128):

  • $240 gas fee for the normal bridge.
  • Normal bridge fee / 2 = Fast bridge fee

Why was ETH moved to Boba Network in the early stages?

Because, initially, transaction fees on the Boba Network are paid in ETH.

Token deposit and withdrawal duration via the Boba Network?

From Ethereum to the Boba Network:

  • Via normal bridge: Instant.
  • Via fast bridge: Instant.

From the Boba Network to Ethereum:

  • Via bridge: 7-14 days.
  • Via fast bridge: Instant.
