Network move · no account
Alchimex turns Ether into ETH on Base in one batch: one deposit address, one fixed formula, one batch number to follow it.
This is a network move, not a price exchange: you receive the same ETH, minus the Base delivery fee, on a chain where it is cheaper or more convenient to use.
The lab fee of 0.5% and the network fee for delivering ETH are both inside the quote; the only extra cost is what your own wallet charges to send ETH.
The process
Enter how much Ether you pour and the ETH address the distillate goes to — an address on Base. The estimate updates before you commit.
Send exactly that dose from any wallet to the deposit address, on Ethereum mainnet. The furnace lights at the first confirmation (a few blocks (1–3 min)).
The lab distills and delivers to your flask on Base. Usually 5 to 30 minutes end to end, confirmations included.
The pair
Formula and minimum refresh every few minutes from the live route. The binding formula is the one engraved when you start a batch.
Usually 5 to 30 minutes for the median batch. Most of it is waiting for a few blocks (1–3 min) on Ethereum; the delivery on Base is quick once distillation starts.
About 0.0091 ETH (about $20) at today's prices. Below that, network fees would eat the distillate, so the batch pauses until you top up or ask for a return.
Yes. The expected ETH output is engraved when you seal the batch and holds until the expiry shown on the deposit page. A deposit that arrives after expiry is handled at the live formula or returned, and you are told which.
No. There is no account, no email and no identity check. The batch number you receive is the only way to find the batch again, so keep it.
A Base address. ETH on another network is a different token with a different address format; the lab delivers only on Base for this pair.
The deposit address listens on Ethereum mainnet only. Tokens sent on another chain are not seen by the athanor; some can be recovered by a technician for a handling fee, many cannot. When in doubt, send a small test dose first.
