Гаманець для Wrapped Aave Base wstETH

What is Wrapped Aave Base wstETH (WABASWSTETH)?

Three wrappers, one asset

Start at the bottom: staked ether in its rebasing form adds to the balance daily. wstETH freezes that balance and puts the growth into the exchange rate instead, so one wstETH steadily corresponds to more stETH. Supplying wstETH to Aave's Base market produces an aToken, which rebases again, and this token is the static form that freezes it a second time. The result is an asset whose quantity never changes and whose worth is two conversion rates away from ether.

A few things follow from that. The wstETH on Base is a bridged representation of the Ethereum token, so unwrapping this asset returns you to bridged wstETH on Base, not to ETH. Turning it into ether means unwinding back down the stack: redeem the share, withdraw wstETH from the market, then either swap or unwrap to stETH on Ethereum and use Lido's withdrawal queue. Every hop costs gas in ETH on Base.

One more thing to keep straight: Aave runs the same wrapper over wstETH on other chains, and those carry near-identical names built from the same pieces. They are separate contracts on separate networks and are not interchangeable, even though a wallet list will show them stacked together under similar labels.

Supported networks in Tangem (1): Base. The app tracks each network's balance on its own and states which chain an outgoing transfer is leaving on before the card is tapped to approve it. Reading that line is your job, not the wallet's, because the same address string exists on every EVM chain. With a token whose name repeats across networks, seeing them kept apart rather than merged is worth something.
