Who takes the LINK → ETH BASE route
- Fuel for BASEWithout Ethereum nothing moves in BASE — every transfer and every contract call is paid in it.
- Different basketsDaily moves of LINK and ETH over 90 days line up at 0.78 (they travel together) — the looser the link, the less a portfolio depends on one coin.
- A road both waysThe ETH BASE → LINK direction is open too, so going back into LINK takes the same route.

How the LINK → ETH BASE order runs
- Work out the amount in the calculator and press the exchange button.
- Enter a ETH address in BASE and a way to reach you.
- Send LINK in Chainlink for exactly the amount stated in the order.
- Once the network confirms your transfer, Ethereum leaves for your address. The order page tracks every step.
Check this before sending LINK
- The address network is BASE. Sending through another network usually means losing the transfer.
- Copy the address whole, then compare the first and last characters after pasting.
- Coins go through an AML check: a flagged transfer can be held until the check is finished.

Where is receiving ETH cheaper?
The cheapest is usually ETH BEP20, ETH Arbitrum, ETH Optimism. Still, the network is chosen by what the recipient supports, not by the fee.
What if the rate moves while I am paying?
