# Interoperable ETH

<Callout>
This is an explanation of how interop ETH works.
You can find a step by step tutorial [here](tutorials/bridge-crosschain-eth).
</Callout>


InteroperableETH enables seamless ETH transfers across Superchain blockchains. It is implemented using three key contracts:

* [`SuperchainWETH`](https://github.com/ethereum-optimism/optimism/blob/develop/packages/contracts-bedrock/src/L2/SuperchainWETH.sol): A bridge contract that facilitates ETH transfers between Superchain blockchains.

# Bridging native cross-chain ETH transfers

Crosschain ETH transfers in the Superchain are facilitated through the [SuperchainWETH](https://github.com/ethereum-optimism/optimism/blob/develop/packages/contracts-bedrock/src/L2/SuperchainWETH.sol) contract.
This tutorial walks through how to send native ETH from chain 901 to 902. To simplify these steps, [supersim](/stack/interop/tools/supersim) will be run with the `--interop.autorelay` flag. The `--interop.autorelay` flag automatically triggers the relay message transaction once the initial send transaction is completed on the source chain, improving the developer experience by removing the need to manually send the relay message.

<Callout>
If the source chain uses native ETH as their gas token, but the destination chain uses a custom gas token, then the recipient will receive `SuperchainWETH` on the destination chain.
This tutorial provides step-by-step instructions for bridging ETH from one Superchain Interop chain to another.
For a conceptual overview,
see the [interoperable ETH explainer](../superchain-weth).
</Callout>

## Overview

Crosschain ETH transfers in the Superchain are facilitated through the [SuperchainWETH](https://github.com/ethereum-optimism/optimism/blob/develop/packages/contracts-bedrock/src/L2/SuperchainWETH.sol) contract.
This tutorial walks through how to send native ETH from one chain to another.
You can do this on [Supersim](../tools/supersim), [the Interop devnet](../tools/devnet), or production, once it is released.

Note that if the source chain uses native ETH as their gas token, but the destination chain uses a custom gas token, then the recipient will receive `SuperchainWETH` on the destination chain.

The tabular view on this step is throwing me off a little bit. I think it might be cleaner to just separate the tabs into their own steps

Is this the option to run local or on the live devnet?

Yes. You can do either and it should work. Making them into separate steps would imply you need to do both, rather than either.


1. Install [Foundry](https://book.getfoundry.sh/getting-started/installation).

2. Follow the [Installation Guide](/app-developers/tutorials/supersim/getting-started/installation) to install [Supersim](../tools/supersim) for running blockchains with Interop.

This is actually the first time I'm installing supersim and it looks like its not working:

% supersim 
t=2025-02-19T23:01:24-0800 lvl=crit msg="Application Failed" err="failed to setup: anvil version timestamp of 2025-02-14T00:20:02.123144000Z or higher is required, please use foundryup to update to the latest version."

I flagged it to the engineering team to see if I was doing something wrong, but I'll continue with the tutorial for now.

Try to run foundryup to update.


3. Supersim uses Foundry's `anvil` blockchains, which start with ten prefunded accounts.
Set these environment variables to access one of those accounts on the L2 blockchains.

```sh
export PRIV_KEY=0xac0974bec39a17e36ba4a6b4d238ff944bacb478cbed5efcae784d7bf4f2ff80
```

<details>
<summary>Sanity check</summary>

```sh
cast balance --ether `cast wallet address $PRIV_KEY` --rpc-url http://localhost:9545
cast balance --ether `cast wallet address $PRIV_KEY` --rpc-url http://localhost:9546
```
</details>
</Tabs.Tab>

<Tabs.Tab>
2. Set `PRIV_KEY` to the private key of an address that has [Sepolia ETH](https://cloud.google.com/application/web3/faucet/ethereum/sepolia).

```sh
export PRIV_KEY=0x<private key here>
```

3. Send ETH to the two L2 blockchains.

```sh
cast send --rpc-url https://endpoints.omniatech.io/v1/eth/sepolia/public --private-key $PRIV_KEY --value 0.02ether 0x7385d89d38ab79984e7c84fab9ce5e6f4815468a
cast send --rpc-url https://endpoints.omniatech.io/v1/eth/sepolia/public --private-key $PRIV_KEY --value 0.02ether 0x55f5c4653dbcde7d1254f9c690a5d761b315500c
```

4. Wait a few minutes until you can see the ETH [on the block explorer](https://sid.testnet.routescan.io/) for your address.

<details>
<summary>Sanity check</summary>

```sh
cast balance --ether `cast wallet address $PRIV_KEY` --rpc-url https://interop-alpha-0.optimism.io/
cast balance --ether `cast wallet address $PRIV_KEY` --rpc-url https://interop-alpha-1.optimism.io/
```
</details>
</Tabs.Tab>
</Tabs>

### Create the TypeScript project

We need to create an executing message on the destination chain, and for that we use [the `@eth-optimism/viem` package](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@eth-optimism/viem).

1. Create a new TypeScript project.

```sh
mkdir transfer-eth
cd transfer-eth
npm init -y
npm install --save-dev -y viem tsx @types/node @eth-optimism/viem typescript
mkdir src
```

2. Download the ABI for `SuperchainWETH`.

```sh
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ethereum-optimism/optimism/refs/heads/develop/packages/contracts-bedrock/snapshots/abi/SuperchainWETH.json
mv SuperchainWETH.json src/SuperchainWETH.abi.json
```

3. Place this in `src/transfer-eth.mts`:

```typescript file=<rootDir>/public/tutorials/transfer-eth.mts hash=41c1d559ac010d3407a3c056f2f49405
```

<details>
<summary>Explanation</summary>

```typescript file=<rootDir>/public/tutorials/transfer-eth.mts#L13-L18 hash=5312f4634ac8762504935cd52d18c8ab
```

Import all chain definitions from `@eth-optimism/viem`.

```typescript file=<rootDir>/public/tutorials/transfer-eth.mts#L29-L32 hash=56873f8d2eebe5975a0c0b9ac7eecfe7
```

If the address we use is `0xf39Fd6e51aad88F6F4ce6aB8827279cffFb92266`, one of the prefunded addresses on `anvil`, assume we're using Supersim.
Otherwise, use Interop devnet.

```typescript file=<rootDir>/public/tutorials/transfer-eth.mts#L78-L80 hash=4933c70a9078c2369ef90bfe163f5fd7
```

To relay a message we need the information in the receipt.
Also, we need to wait until the transaction with the relayed message is actually part of a block.

```typescript file=<rootDir>/public/tutorials/transfer-eth.mts#L87-L89 hash=573f22b2b21415ff51c59c713fda07d1
```

A single transaction can send multiple messages.
But here we know we sent just one, so we look for the first one in the list.

```typescript file=<rootDir>/public/tutorials/transfer-eth.mts#L90-L96 hash=4b26775b46c116262af4c7299d6f1127
```

This is how you use `@eth-optimism/viem` to create an executing message.
</details>

### Run the example

1. Run the example.

```sh
npx tsx src/transfer-eth.mts
```

```sh
supersim --interop.autorelay
```
2. Read the results.

### Initiate the send transaction on chain 901
```
Before transfer

* In this step, you'll send ETH from Chain 901 to Chain 902 through `SuperchainWETH` contract deployed at `0x4200000000000000000000000000000000000024`.
* Use the following command:
Address: 0x7ED53BfaA58B79Dd655B2f229258C093b6C09A8C
Balance on source chain: 0.020999799151902245
Balance on destination chain: 0.026999459226731331
```

```sh
cast send 0x4200000000000000000000000000000000000024 "sendETH(address _to, uint256 _chainId)" 0xf39Fd6e51aad88F6F4ce6aB8827279cffFb92266 902 --value 10ether --rpc-url http://127.0.0.1:9545 --private-key 0xac0974bec39a17e36ba4a6b4d238ff944bacb478cbed5efcae784d7bf4f2ff80
```
The initial state.

### Wait for the relayed message to appear on chain 902
```
After transfer on source chain

In a few seconds, you should see the relayed message on chain 902:
Address: 0x7ED53BfaA58B79Dd655B2f229258C093b6C09A8C
Balance on source chain: 0.019999732176717961
Balance on destination chain: 0.026999459226731331
```

```sh
# example
INFO [12-02|14:53:02.434] SuperchainWETH#RelayETH chain.id=902 from=0xf39Fd6e51aad88F6F4ce6aB8827279cffFb92266 to=0xf39Fd6e51aad88F6F4ce6aB8827279cffFb92266 amount=10,000,000,000,000,000,000 source=901
```
After the initiating message the balance on the source chain is immediately reduced.
Notice that even though we are sending 0.001 ETH, the balance on the source chain is reduced by a bit more (here, approximately 67 gwei).
This is the cost of the initiating transaction on the source chain.
Of course, as there has been no transaction on the destination chain, that balance is unchanged.

### Check the balance on chain 902
```
After relaying message to destination chain

Verify that the balance of the ETH on chain 902 has increased:
Address: 0x7ED53BfaA58B79Dd655B2f229258C093b6C09A8C
Balance on source chain: 0.019999732176717961
Balance on destination chain: 0.027999278943880868
```

```sh
cast balance 0xf39Fd6e51aad88F6F4ce6aB8827279cffFb92266 --rpc-url http://127.0.0.1:9546
```
Now the balance on the destination chain increases, by slightly less than 0.001 ETH.
The executing message also has a transaction cost (in this case, about 180gwei).
