Trading & prices
Read quotes, understand execution costs and distinguish the two markets.
A native launch creates a token/WETH Uniswap v4 pool using Chimera’s hook. The initial supply is placed into single-sided liquidity. Buyers bring WETH into the pool as trading begins; the creator does not need to match the supply with a WETH deposit.
The configured hook fees apply to the canonical pool. They are not a tax on every possible transfer or every market that another party might create. A collection’s trading must be opened before its canonical swaps can execute.
- Open the collection and select the token trading action.
- Enter an amount and refresh the quote.
- Review input, minimum output, fees and gas.
- Confirm in your wallet and wait for the receipt before retrying.
A quote estimates execution at the current pool state. Minimum output protects against a worse fill beyond the chosen tolerance; it does not guarantee a particular price. Market movement or another transaction can invalidate a quote before confirmation. A reverted transaction can still cost gas.
The displayed price is rounded for readability. The wallet transaction and contract limits use the exact amount. USD equivalents are indicative and can change with ETH pricing. Refresh stale quotes instead of raising tolerance without understanding the change.
NFT listings are separate from token pool quotes. Where the interface uses OpenSea, it displays listing data and prepares supported marketplace transactions inside Chimera. Availability and fulfillment still depend on the underlying order, approvals, seller ownership and supported chain.
Before buying an earning NFT, check its activation status and current pending rewards. A seller can claim accrued rewards before the purchase settles. A listing screenshot is not a guarantee of the claimable amount delivered with the NFT. Royalty and marketplace charges are separate from token hook fees.
FDV is token price multiplied by total supply. Circulating market capitalization uses circulating supply when that information is available. Neither metric is the amount of WETH in the pool or the amount that all holders could withdraw at once.
NFT floor is the lowest available listing in the data source, not a guaranteed sale price. Token volume and NFT volume measure different trades. Owner counts, listed percentages and recent sales may lag while providers index transactions.
