Wrap NEAR

This user guide describes how to convert NEAR to wrapped NEAR (WNEAR).

To trade on Veax, you need WNEAR, which you can get by wrapping NEAR tokens.

info

1 NEAR is equivalent to 1 WNEAR. However, keep in mind that upon unwrapping, the fees are deducted.

We always leave 0.5 NEAR on your balance for gas fees. Therefore, if you have 0.5 NEAR or less, you can't wrap NEAR.

Prerequisites

Ensure you have NEAR tokens in your wallet.

Connect your wallet to VEAX.
