💸Guide How to Easily and Cheaply Refill ETH on Ethereum Mainnet
For those looking to cheaply and quickly refill ETH on the Ethereum mainnet, there’s an excellent and affordable method, particularly suitable for small amounts. The most favorable exchange rate is for amounts up to $500 in ETH.
🐦⬛ Recommended Networks for Exchange:
- Arbitrum (withdrawal fee from OKX: $0.38)
- Optimism (withdrawal fee from OKX: $0.15)
- ZkSync (withdrawal fee from OKX: $0.15)
- Base (withdrawal fee from OKX: $0.15)
✔ Fees Depending on the Amount:
- Transfer 0.001 ETH – fee ≈ $1.28
- Transfer 0.005 ETH – fee ≈ $1.43
- Transfer 0.01 ETH – fee ≈ $1.44
- Transfer 0.05 ETH – fee ≈ $2.3
- Transfer 0.1 ETH – fee ≈ $3.4
- Transfer 0.5 ETH – fee ≈ $11
- Transfer 1 ETH – fee ≈ $20
- Transfer 10 ETH – fee ≈ $190
✳ All calculations are made at 8 Gwei gas, but fees won’t increase significantly even with higher gas prices. As shown above, this bridge is cost-effective for transferring small amounts up to 0.05-0.1 ETH if you need to refill this network urgently.
For example, if you need to refill 0.01 ETH in the mainnet, one of the most cost-effective routes would be: Withdraw ETH on the Optimism network to your MetaMask wallet, then use the bridge to exchange ETH Optimism for ETH mainnet.
Total costs would be: OKX ($0.15) + bridge ($1.44) = $1.59
✅ What to Do:
- Withdrawing ETH from OKX to your MetaMask wallet in the Optimism network
- Go to the website, click “Connect wallet” and connect the wallet in the network where you have ETH
- Click “Bridge now” and in the “FROM” field, select the sending network, in the “To” field, select the destination network
- Enter the transfer amount, click “Bridge” and sign the transaction
❗️ My transaction was completed in 15 seconds. I have never seen such cheap bridges to the Ethereum Mainnet that make it so easy and affordable to refill it with a single click.
