popular base bridge routes
Most used Base routes, each one leads to a step-by-step guide.
how does garden work
Garden uses Hashed Timelock Contracts (HTLCs) and an intents-based solver network to enable atomic cross-chain swaps.
no wrapping
Garden doesn't handle wrapping or unwrapping, swaps settle directly into native assets or existing inventory of wrapped tokens like WBTC and cbBTC.
trustless & secure
HTLCs ensure swaps are atomic: either both sides complete, or your asset is refunded automatically.
optimal routing
Solvers fill your swap at the best execution path. Garden is expanding into an aggregator, filling routes it does not support natively through partners like SwapKit.
audited and stress tested
Secure by design. Audited in public. No custody, no hidden trust.
frequently askedquestions
No. cbBTC is an ERC-20 on Base backed one to one by BTC that Coinbase holds in custody. Coinbase publishes a proof of reserves, and about 97,700 BTC back the supply today. It trades at par and works as collateral across Base, but you are holding a claim on Coinbase, not a UTXO.
Send BTC from any wallet to the deposit address Garden gives you. It locks in an HTLC on the Bitcoin chain, one block confirms, and a solver releases cbBTC, USDC or any other supported asset you choose to your Base address. Around 10 minutes, no account, no KYC.
Base is an optimistic rollup, so the canonical bridge waits for a challenge window before releasing funds on Ethereum. The Beryl upgrade in June 2026 cut that from 7 days to 5, and the Azul upgrade added TEE and ZK multiproofs that bring it to 1 day when both agree. Garden does not use the canonical bridge, so none of this applies to a swap out of Base.
Native USDC, the Circle mint. USDbC is the older token that crossed the canonical bridge before Circle deployed on Base in September 2023. It is not Circle-issued, cannot be redeemed through Circle Mint, and its liquidity is shrinking. Both can show up as USDC in a wallet, so check the contract address if a balance looks off.
Swap cbBTC or USDC on Base with BTC as the receive asset. Your Base tokens lock in an HTLC and a solver pays native BTC to your address. About 30 seconds, because the solver fronts the BTC and claims your Base side afterwards. You do not redeem through Coinbase Prime and you do not wait on the canonical bridge.
Coinbase orders every Base transaction. That gives Base fast blocks and a single point of liveness failure. If the sequencer stops, transactions queue until it comes back, though users can force transactions through Ethereum after a delay. It does not let Coinbase take funds. For a Garden swap, a sequencer pause means your HTLC simply waits. If the timelock expires before the swap completes, you refund.
Still yours. Both sides of a Garden swap are HTLCs with a timelock. If the solver never claims, your lock expires and you redeem your original asset. Base's own bridge documentation says fast bridges require trusting the provider with your funds. An atomic swap does not.
