Swap Optimism (OP Optimism) for Ethereum (ETH BASE)
The calculator does the maths at the live rate, the page lists the limits and the timing. Your rate is locked the moment the order is created.
Rate as of Sep 17, 2026 16:38

- 24 hours
- +1.35%
The direction runs at 0.0000400006 ETH BASE per OP Optimism, or 24,999.64 OP Optimism per ETH BASE. Market over 24 hours: OP Optimism against ETH BASE plus 1.35%. The week added minus 0.25%.
The weekly corridor ran from 0.0000375956 to 0.0000417004 ETH BASE, a spread of 10.92%.
The payout leaves in the BASE network, so the receiving address has to belong to that network. By market cap Optimism sits 165th ($224.78 M) and Ethereum 2th ($300.45 B). Daily moves of OP and ETH over 90 days line up at 0.43 (they travel alike).
Who takes the OP Optimism → 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 OP and ETH over 90 days line up at 0.43 (they travel alike) — the looser the link, the less a portfolio depends on one coin.
- A road both waysThe ETH BASE → OP Optimism direction is open too, so going back into OP takes the same route.

Payout network for ETH
The same ETH goes out in several networks. Rates and lower limits differ, and the fee is charged by the network itself.

How the OP Optimism → 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 OP Optimism in Optimism 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 OP Optimism
- 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.

Common questions: OP Optimism → ETH BASE
What rate does OP Optimism to ETH BASE run at?
As of Sep 17, 2026 16:38 it is 1 OP Optimism = 0.0000400006 ETH BASE. The figure recalculates on its own, and the calculator always shows the fresh one. In dollars that is around $0.0984306.
What else is taken on top of the rate?
The payout is already calculated at the rate in the calculator. On top of it you only pay the network fee for sending OP Optimism, and that one goes to the blockchain, not to us.
How long does OP Optimism to ETH BASE take?
The clock starts with confirmations: the order goes into work once Optimism confirms your transfer. After that it comes down to how busy the network is.
Which network will ETH BASE arrive in?
The payout leaves in BASE. Make sure the receiving wallet works with that network.
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?
The rate is pinned to the order and does not move while the order is alive. It can be recalculated if the payment arrives late or for a different amount — so send the exact sum, and send it promptly.
What did the OP Optimism to ETH BASE rate do this month?
The month came in at minus 11.9%. Low 0.0000357733, high 0.0000455509, middle 0.0000407832 ETH BASE per OP Optimism.
Can I go back, ETH BASE to OP Optimism?
Yes, the reverse direction is open: 1 ETH BASE = 25,125.46 OP Optimism. The link sits right under the calculator.
