Faster & cheaper deposits | MetaWin Help Center

At MetaWin, we strive to provide the best experience for our users by supporting multiple blockchain networks. By using alternative chain networks like Base, Arbitrum One, and OP Mainnet, you can enjoy faster and cheaper deposits compared to the Ethereum Mainnet. This guide will walk you through the advantages of these networks and how to use them for your deposits.

Understanding Chain Networks

Blockchain networks vary in their transaction speeds and fees. While the Ethereum Mainnet is widely used, it can sometimes experience congestion and high transaction fees. Alternative networks like Base, Arbitrum One, and OP Mainnet offer solutions to these issues.

Supported Networks:

Base: A scalable blockchain network that offers high throughput and low transaction fees.
Arbitrum One: A Layer 2 solution for Ethereum that enhances transaction speed and reduces costs.
OP Mainnet: The Optimistic Ethereum (OE) mainnet, designed to improve scalability and lower fees.
