How to acquire ALB on Base
ALB is the native token of Alien Base. The fastest path to acquire it is on Alien Base itself — but several other venues also have ALB liquidity.
Last updated: July 6, 2026.
Have ETH on Base. (See Bridging to Base if you don't.)
Go to app.alienbase.xyz/swap.
Sell ETH (or USDC, or any token you have on Base) → buy ALB.
Epsilon will route your trade through whichever pool gives the best price — almost always one of Alien Base's native ALB pools.
The deepest market is the V3 ALB-WETH pool (0xbcd27A43…6fcB). For a guided walkthrough, see Swap.
ALB also has pools on:
Uniswap (3 pools as of July 6, 2026)
A few smaller venues
If you're already on one of those DEXes, ALB will be swappable there. But Epsilon will give you the best price by aggregating across all of them, so trading on Alien Base directly is almost always better.
Always verify the contract address before swapping:
Beware of scam tokens with similar names. The Alien Base swap UI loads the canonical token by default; if you paste an address into the token selector, double-check it matches the one above.
Most users do at least one of:
Lock it as esALB to earn single-stake APR + Real Yield. See esALB.
Provide liquidity in V3 / Bunni Vaults (infinite or concentrated, capital-efficient). See Vaults.
Vote on Snapshot proposals once locked as esALB. See Alien Base DAO.
