Toshi (TOSHI) is a meme-inspired token native to Base, Ethereum's Layer 2 network built for low-cost, fast transactions. Traders often swap TOSHI to gain or exit exposure to Base ecosystem activity, or to consolidate positions into other assets without the higher fees associated with Ethereum mainnet. Because TOSHI exists solely on Base, it attracts users who are already operating within that ecosystem.
Exchange Toshi
Before exchanging Toshi
Before swapping TOSHI, confirm your receiving wallet supports Base network tokens — sending TOSHI to an address that only supports Ethereum mainnet or another chain can result in inaccessible funds. Since TOSHI runs exclusively on Base, there is no network selection to make: all transactions go through Base. Confirmation times on Base are generally fast but can vary with network conditions, so allow some buffer before assuming a transaction is delayed. On Zest, the rate and destination address are shown before you confirm, giving you a chance to review the full details of the swap without creating an account.

Frequently Asked Questions
TOSHI operates exclusively on the Base network, so your receiving wallet must be Base-compatible. If you send TOSHI to an Ethereum mainnet address that does not support Base, your funds may be inaccessible. Always verify your wallet or platform supports Base before initiating a swap.
TOSHI is a distinct token on Base and should not be confused with other similarly named assets or meme tokens on different networks. When swapping, double-check the contract or ticker to ensure you are exchanging the correct asset. Selecting the wrong token in a swap can result in receiving an unintended asset.
Minimums vary by pair and network. The exchange widget shows the exact minimum and maximum for your selected pair before you confirm, so you can check the limits before sending anything.
No signup is required for standard swaps. Zest is non-custodial: you send from and receive to wallets you control, and the rate is shown before you confirm.
