ETH Bridge (qETH)
Bridge ETH from Base Sepolia to RougeChain as qETH, and back.
Deposit (ETH → qETH)
Step 1: Send ETH to the Bridge
Connect your MetaMask (or other EVM wallet) to Base Sepolia and send ETH to the custody/bridge contract address shown on the Bridge page.
Step 2: Claim qETH
- Go to the Bridge page and select the Bridge In tab
- Paste the EVM transaction hash
- Sign the claim message with your EVM wallet (proves you made the deposit)
- Click Claim
The node verifies:
- The transaction exists on Base Sepolia
- It was sent to the correct custody address
- The EVM signature matches the sender
- The transaction has sufficient confirmations
- It hasn't been claimed before
On success, qETH is minted to your RougeChain wallet.
Conversion Rate
1 ETH = 1,000,000 qETH units (6 decimal precision)
For example, depositing 0.01 ETH gives you 10,000 qETH units.
Withdraw (qETH → ETH)
- Go to the Bridge page and select the Bridge Out tab
- Select ETH as the token
- Enter the amount of qETH to bridge out
- Enter the Base Sepolia address to receive ETH
- Click Bridge Out
The transaction is signed client-side (your private key never leaves the browser), then:
- qETH is burned on RougeChain
- A pending withdrawal is created
- The bridge relayer picks it up and sends ETH to your EVM address
A 0.1 XRGE fee is charged for the withdrawal transaction.
