How to sell memecoins and tokens on Base.
Memecoins, Bankr launches and tokens like VIRTUAL or BNKR: where they trade, which pools you can sell into, what you get paid in, and how to sell a bag without the red candle.
3 min read · Updated Sep 28, 2026Where Base tokens trade
Base tokens mostly trade on Uniswap v3 and v4 and on Aerodrome, against WETH or USDC. Launchpad tokens, such as Clanker's, start in Uniswap v4 pools. Gas is paid in ETH and is cheap, which is why Base has so many small, fast-moving memecoins.
Most of those pools are thin: a bag worth a few percent of the pool can move the price by double digits on a market sell. Estimate the price impact first.
What you can sell
Unwind places sales in Uniswap v3 and v4 pools on Base. A v4 pool is used when its hook doesn't run when liquidity is removed, or runs one Unwind has reviewed. The pool also needs at least $25,000 of liquidity, over $1,000 traded in 24 hours and a buy in the last day. Check any token in the ticket before you send it. Why a token can't be sold.
What you can't sell yet
Uniswap v2 pools. They spread liquidity across every price, so there's no band to place above the market.
Tokens that trade only on Aerodrome. Unwind doesn't place sales in Aerodrome pools; it only uses them to convert proceeds to USDC.
Uniswap v4 pools whose hook runs when liquidity is removed and that Unwind hasn't reviewed.
Pools whose other token can't be converted to USDC, so the sale can't be priced or paid.

How you get paid
Proceeds are paid in USDC or ETH on Base, to your receiving address, when the sale ends; anything unsold goes back there too. ETH is bought with USDC in a Uniswap pool on Base, so that swap's pool fee and price impact come out of an ETH payout. There's no bridge: a Base sale pays out on Base.
Minimum and fees
The minimum sale on Base is $25 of tokens, valued at the price when you create the sale. Unwind charges 0.5% of what sells, nothing on what comes back unsold, and pays the gas for placing, moving and closing your positions. Sending the tokens in costs a little ETH for gas.

Questions
Can I sell from Coinbase Wallet or another app?
Yes. Any wallet that holds the tokens on Base can send them to your Unwind wallet, and proceeds go to the receiving address you choose.
Can I sell a Clanker token?
Yes, once its pool passes the checks. Clanker's hook only limits adding liquidity for a couple of minutes after launch; after that, the pool can be sold into like any other. More on launchpad tokens.
Can I get paid on another network?
No. A Base sale pays out in USDC or ETH on Base. There's no bridge.
Where can I see my sale on-chain?
Every transaction of your sale links to Basescan.
