How the ENA → USDC BASE exchange runs

  2. Give a USDC address on BASE and a contact for the order.

Swap ENA for USDC BASE

Check this before sending ENA

  • The address network is BASE. Sending through another network almost always means losing the transfer.
  • The transfer must not be smaller than 399.3257 ENA.
  • Copy the address in full, then check its first and last characters once it is pasted.
  • Send exactly the amount stated in the order: the automation matches your payment against it, and any difference sends the order back for recalculation.

What amounts does ENA → USDC BASE accept?
From 399.3257 to 38,400,000 ENA per order. The floor is roughly $103.89.
Why can I not swap less than 399.3257 ENA?
The network fee and the handling do not depend on the amount. On a transfer below 399.3257 ENA they eat a noticeable share of it, and the swap stops making sense for either side.

Which network is cheaper for receiving USDC?
Usually USDC SOL, USDC Arbitrum, USDC BEP20, USDC AVAX C, USDC Optimism, USDC Polygon works out cheaper. Still, the network is picked by what the recipient accepts, not by the fee.
What happens if the rate moves while I am paying?
Nothing: the rate is locked in the order and holds for as long as the order is alive. It is recalculated only if the payment arrives late or for a different amount — so send the exact sum, and send it promptly.
