How to sell BAES with Bitget Wallet

  1. Download and open the Bitget Wallet app, and ensure your account holds base BAES tokens.
  2. Swap base BAES tokens for USDT or USDC on Ethereum, Solana, BNB Chain, Base, or the TRON network.
    1. Select the token to sell: Open the [Trade] page, navigate to the [Cross-Chain Swap] section, select the token you wish to sell along with its network (e.g., BAES on the base chain), and enter the amount.
    2. Select the token to buy: Choosing a token on the same chain (e.g., USDT or USDC on Ethereum, Solana, BNB Chain, Base, or Tron) constitutes a same-chain trade, whereas choosing a token on a different chain constitutes a cross-chain trade. Gas fees for cross-chain trades are typically higher than those for same-chain trades.
    3. Review trade details: The system will display the amount of the target token you can receive based on real-time prices. You can view the current slippage and price impact (factors that affect the final amount of tokens received) and check or modify the destination address (defaulting to your current wallet address).
    4. Set appropriate slippage: When the price of a token is very volatile or the pool has low liquidity, setting a low slippage tolerance may cause the transaction to fail. We recommend using Bitget Wallet's Smart slippage to ensure smooth transactions.
    5. Confirm Gas fees: Click [Confirm] to view the estimated Gas fee for the transaction. If your balance is insufficient, follow the on-screen instructions to deposit the necessary native network coin to cover the fee.
    6. Confirm the transaction: Click "Confirm" again on the transaction details page and wait for the transaction to be confirmed on the chain. Remember that once you click "Confirm", the transaction cannot be canceled. Even if the transaction fails, you will still be charged a gas fee.

What are common reasons for a failed transaction?

1. Gas fee is insufficient or set too low, so validators don't process it. 2. Insufficient wallet balance. 3. Network congestion, causing long processing delays.

What should I do when a transaction fails?

Insufficient gas: Top up native tokens, increase the gas fee, or use Bitget Wallet's GetGas service. Insufficient balance: Add funds and resend. Network congestion: Increase the gas fee for higher priority, or wait and try again. For more issues, contact customer support and provide the transaction hash (viewable on a block explorer).

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Blockchain network fees are charged for processing transactions, even if the swap ultimately fails.

For many blockchain networks, the first swap requires a token approval transaction, which authorizes the smart contract to access your tokens.

The easiest method is to use Bitget Wallet's Cross-Chain Swap feature. It lets you exchange BAES directly into supported cryptocurrencies without transferring assets to a centralized exchange.

Yes. As long as the wallet is supported by Bitget Wallet and contains BAES, you can import or connect it before initiating the swap.

Yes. Before confirming the transaction, you can edit the destination wallet address to receive the swapped tokens in another compatible wallet.

A same-chain swap exchanges tokens within the same blockchain, while a cross-chain swap transfers value between different blockchains. Cross-chain swaps usually involve additional routing and therefore may require higher Gas fees.

No. A swap generally requires sufficient liquidity to execute the transaction. If there is insufficient liquidity for BAES, you may need to reduce the transaction amount, wait for liquidity to improve, or select another available trading route.

The final amount can be affected by the current market price of BAES, liquidity, price impact, slippage, and applicable network or swap fees. The estimated amount may also change before the transaction is confirmed.

Bitget Wallet recommends using Smart Slippage, which automatically adjusts the slippage tolerance based on current market conditions to improve the likelihood of a successful transaction.

The final amount may differ because of price fluctuations, slippage, liquidity changes, and network execution during the transaction process.
