Key Points
Wrapped RON (wRON) will become tradeable on April 30th on or after 9am PT / 12am PHT in supported regions. Look for the wRON-USD trading pair! Follow the guide below to swap, bridge, and hold wRON to your Coinbase account. No action required for most users or RON holders unless you already hold RONIN | RON on Coinbase.
Remember: wRON is a new ERC-20 token on Ethereum. 1 wRON = 1RON. Ronin’s Homecoming is less than two weeks away, and this new token listing makes it easier for Ethereum users to join our movement before the big day.
Coinbase will no longer support RONIN | RON once wRON is live. If you hold your RONIN from Coinbase to a self-custodial wallet before this date to maintain access to your assets.
Ronin is almost home. In preparation for the May 12th migration, Coinbase is transitioning support of RONIN | RON on Ronin to wRON on Ethereum. That means two things: Coinbase users will be able to acquire wRON after the migration, and YOU need to withdraw any RONIN | RON you have on Coinbase now.
Here’s what’s happening:
• April 30th @ 9am Pacific Time: wRON on Ethereum goes LIVE on Coinbase
• May 12th: RONIN | RONIN on Ronin is sunset on Coinbase
There’s no action required for most users or RON holders. However, if you have RONIN | RON on Coinbase, withdraw it to your Ronin Wallet now. If you’d also like to acquire wRON on Ethereum in preparation for the migration, there will be a few ways to do after April 30th @ 9am PT. Here’s how:
Step 1: Open your Ronin Wallet and click “Swap”
Step 2: Select RON as the “from” asset and wRON as the “to” asset
Step 3: Complete your swap
Step 1: Go to the Chainlink CCIP bridge
Step 2: Connect your preferred wallet
Step 3: Transfer your wRON from Ronin network to the Ethereum network
Note: Coinbase only accepts wRON via Ethereum.
Step 1: Log-in to your Coinbase account
Step 2: Paste your Coinbase account’s Ethereum address
Step 3: Send your wRON to that address
Note: There is only one wRON smart contract address: 0x09B6a9E1DD102bD95B3DD5025bCa3540eBf77982. Always double-check the wRON contract you’re using to avoid impersonation scams!
Ronin’s migration to Ethereum is almost complete. wRON’s listing on Coinbase ensures the portal between Ronin and North American crypto users stays open. Stay tuned for more updates as Ronin’s homecoming approaches!
