This guide will walk you through the steps to easily and safely transfer your ETH from the Base network to Ethereum using Superbridge, Coinbase’s recommended bridging solution.
Step 1: Visit Superbridge and Connect Your Wallet
1. Open your web browser and navigate to [superbridge.app/base ↗].
2. Connect your Burner via WalletConnect and ensure it's connected to the Ethereum network.
Step 2: Verify Networks and Enter Transfer Details
Note: While this guide focuses on ETH, you can also select other tokens that are in your wallet, such as USDC, DAI, or other supported assets. Simply click on the token selector and choose the token you’d like to bridge.
1. In the Superbridge interface, confirm that you are sending from Ethereum to Base.
2. Input the amount of ETH you wish to bridge.
3. Double-check that the receiving address on Ethereum is correct.
4. Review the details, such as the amount to be received on Ethereum, transfer time, and network fees.
5. Click WITHDRAW to continue.
Step 3. Confirm and Initiate the Transfer
Note: Bridging ETH from Base to Ethereum takes significantly longer than bridging in—around 7 days. This process involves multiple steps, including a waiting period for the transaction to be finalized on the Ethereum network. Funds will only be claimable on Ethereum after the full bridging out period has passed. Be sure to plan accordingly if you need access to your funds on Ethereum.
1. Review the transfer details and check all the required boxes to confirm your understanding.
2. Click the INITIATE DEPOSIT button to begin the transfer.
Important Tips:
Only bridge ETH to the correct Ethereum address. Transferring to the wrong address could result in a loss of funds.
Be mindful of network fees and transaction times. The interface will provide an estimate, but these may vary depending on network congestion.
