Exchange in 3 steps
-
Set the OP amount and paste your Ethereum (Base) payout address on Base mainnet.
-
Create the order to lock the quote and see the deposit address.
-
Send OP to that deposit. After confirmations, ETH is paid to your wallet.
Before you broadcast
- Optimism confirmations are usually fast — often within a minute.
- Send OP on Optimism mainnet only — not Ethereum, Base, or Arbitrum unless your order says otherwise.
- Use an Optimism-compatible wallet and address (0x…). Leave enough ETH on Optimism for gas if sending ERC-20 tokens.
- ETH not visible yet? Wait a few minutes, resync your wallet, then contact support with your order ID if the payout tx is already listed.
Optimism — Ethereum L2 with low fees
OP is the governance token of Optimism — an Ethereum rollup with fast, low-cost transfers and deep Superchain liquidity.
OP on Optimism mainnet
Use an Optimism wallet for deposits. L1 Ethereum or other L2 sends may not be credited.
Leave enough ETH on Optimism for gas when moving OP or other tokens.
ETH on Base — Coinbase L2
Native ETH on Base — Ethereum's value on Coinbase's L2 with low fees, fast finality, and growing on-chain activity.
Base ETH not received?
Confirm your wallet is on Base mainnet and fully synced — not Ethereum L1.
Base ETH payout tips
- Payouts go to Base — verify your wallet network is Base (chain ID 8453).
- Check Basescan with the payout tx hash from your order page.
- Bridging to Ethereum L1 is a separate step after you receive ETH on Base.

Frequently asked questions
Is identity verification required to trade OP for ETH?
No. HideSwap operates as an anonymous no-KYC crypto exchange — no profile, no ID upload, and no funded account for Optimism → Ethereum (Base).
How long is a OP → ETH order?
Typical completion is a few minutes. Optimism mainnet and Base mainnet confirmation times set the pace.
Do you custody OP or ETH?
No. You send OP yourself and ETH is paid to the address you enter — HideSwap does not keep a wallet balance for you.
What if I pick the wrong OP network?
Match the network printed on the order (Optimism mainnet). A mismatch can strand the deposit — check the swap safety notes first.
