About Wrapped Ether (Base - SuperChain Bridge)
For clear data distinction, this token, initially issued as WETH and bridged onto the Base network by Base Bridge (now deprecated and maintained by the Superchain Bridge), is listed under the alternative ticker BWETH. This helps accurately identify and differentiate it from the mainnet asset. The separation of tokens is necessary not only due to the distinct roles played by the networks but also to clarify the responsibility for the bridged token. Since Superchain manages this asset on the Base Network, the original project is not responsible for any issues or vulnerabilities that may arise with the bridged token, such as security breaches or governance changes. This ensures precise tracking and management of assets across the Base Network’s liquidity, governance structures, and technical infrastructure.
