Choose a Quote Asset
ETH vs ERC20 (e.g., B3) as the quote asset during bonding.
Overview
BondKit supports bonding against ETH or an allowed ERC20 (e.g., B3). Your choice impacts UX, integrations, and liquidity at migration.
When to use ETH
- Broad accessibility; most users hold ETH on Base
- Simpler UX (no prior approvals)
- Direct ETH liquidity at migration
When to use an ERC20 (e.g., B3)
- Aligns with an existing token economy
- Can bootstrap deeper token‑token pairs at migration
- Requires approvals before buys/sells
Operational differences
- 5% fee on buys and sells for both ETH and ERC20
- ERC20 flows require
approvebefore curve interactions - Migration pairs are created against WETH or the chosen ERC20
Note
Confirm the allowed‑list for ERC20 quote assets with the team. By default only specific assets may be enabled.
