Question 1

What is the difference between WEETH and eETH, and does it matter when swapping?

Accepted Answer

eETH is a rebasing token that accrues restaking rewards by increasing the holder's balance over time. WEETH is a wrapped, non-rebasing version that reflects the same value through an exchange rate rather than balance changes. When swapping, you are exchanging the wrapped form, so the rate you see already accounts for the accrued value — you do not need to unwrap to eETH first.

Question 2

Why do users commonly swap WEETH rather than redeeming through EtherFi directly?

Accepted Answer

Protocol redemptions for restaked assets can involve withdrawal queues or waiting periods depending on on-chain conditions. Swapping WEETH on a non-custodial exchange lets users convert to another asset immediately without waiting for a protocol-level unbonding process, provided sufficient liquidity exists for the pair at the time of the swap.

Question 3

Is there a minimum WEETH exchange amount?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 4

Do I need an account to swap WEETH?

Accepted Answer

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.
