Chains
Every network Torch supports, what you can do on each, and what's different about them.
Supported chains
| Chain | Gas token | Trade | Launch | Bridge |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Robinhood Chain | ETH | Yes | Torch launchpad + partner launchpad | Yes |
| Solana | SOL | Yes | Partner launchpad | Yes |
| Ethereum | ETH | Yes | Coming soon | Yes |
| Base | ETH | Yes | Coming soon | Yes |
| Arbitrum | ETH | Yes | Coming soon | Yes |
| BNB Smart Chain | BNB | Yes | Coming soon | Yes |
| Ink | ETH | Yes | Coming soon | Yes |
| Stable | USDT0 | Yes | Coming soon | Yes |
| Arc | USDC | Yes | Coming soon | Yes |
Trading and bridging are live on all of these, in both the Terminal and the bot. More chains are added as Torch grows.
One address, many chains
- Your EVM address is the same on every EVM chain (Robinhood, Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, BNB, Ink, Stable, Arc). Balances are separate per chain: ETH on Base is not ETH on Robinhood.
- Your Solana address is a separate wallet.
That's why sending funds to your EVM address on the wrong EVM chain is usually recoverable: the address is yours on every EVM chain, so switch to that chain in Torch and you'll see it. This does not work between EVM and Solana: funds sent from an EVM chain to your Solana address (or the other way round) don't arrive there.
What's different per chain
| Chain | Worth knowing |
|---|---|
| Robinhood Chain | Very fast and cheap. Home of the Torch launchpad and $TORCH. |
| Solana | Separate wallet. Every transaction needs a little SOL for fees, even selling another token, so keep ~0.01 SOL. |
| Ethereum | Highest gas costs of the supported chains. |
| BNB Smart Chain | Gas is paid in BNB, so keep a little BNB for selling later. |
| Stable, Arc | Gas is a dollar stablecoin (USDT0 / USDC), so balances show in dollars. |
Your main chain
The bot lets you pick a main chain (/chain). Buys on other chains can be paid from your main-chain balance and are bridged automatically. See Bot → Chains.
Explorer links
Every trade, bridge and claim links to the right block explorer for its chain, so you can check it yourself.
