Bridge Rewards on Kwenta

We are thrilled to announce that our partners over at Socket, a cutting-edge interoperability platform that seamlessly transfers assets and data across various networks, have teamed up with Kwenta to issue $OP rewards for users that bridge assets to the Optimism network through the Kwenta integration.

Bridging to Optimism on Kwenta will now practically cost ZERO! 💸

Our integration of Socket on Kwenta allows for effortless onboarding to Optimism from various chains, substantially improving our onboarding process. This integration enables users to bridge sUSD to Optimism and supports the ability to bridge most assets.

How do I earn OP Rewards with Socket?

Bridging Tokens to Optimism on Kwenta

All bridges to Optimism from Ethereum Mainnet, Polygon, Arbitrum & BSC.. will earn rewards in OP tokens.

🫠 Math, who needs it? But it means bridging $10,000 USDC earns you $13 worth of $OP tokens!

How is the OP calculation Calculated?

The OP rebate for users is simple:

Rebate amount = 90% of bridge fees + source gas fees in USD (based on the price of OP on that day)

Where Bridge fees = Source amount(in USD) - Destination Amount(in USD)

How do I claim rewards?

All rewards earned by users are accumulated and available to be claimed on a monthly basis. We’ll share a page where users can come in, connect their wallets & claim their rewards every month.

Rewards can be tracked via the socket dashboard:

Reward estimates will display within the briding interface during the bridging process.
