# Bridging to Base

## Bridging to Base Overview

### Base (blockchain L2)

Base is an L2 chain built on EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine) that offers ultra-low fees and high scalability, coupled with fast deployment. Nuon has been launched on Base to position itself for wide and inexpensive adoption. 

### Bridging USDC and ETH to Base

Nuon is currently live on the Base. To interact with Nuon, users must bridge USDC and ETH to Base. 

#### Requirements

* ERC-20 compatible wallet (e.g., MetaMask)
* USDC for minting Nuon
* ETH for gas fees

#### Bridging Tools

* [Superbridge](https://superbridge.app/base)
* [XSwap](https://xswap.exchange)

Ensure both assets are visible in your wallet and the network is set to Base. To see Nuon in your wallet, you need to add the custom token using the [token contract](/resources/token-contracts.md).

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.nuon.fi/guides/bridging-to-base.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
