Gas Fee Subsidization

Upon onboarding for the first time on Bluefin v2, all users will receive 0.2 SUI in their Sui Wallet to support transaction fees associated with:
  • Depositing and Withdrawing USDC
  • Removing/Adding Margin to a Position
  • Adjusting Leverage
Note: Users will not be paying gas fees for on-chain trades, this is already subsidized by the Bluefin Foundation.

Switching your connected Sui wallet on Bluefin v2

If you find that you need to change the Sui wallet that you've connected to the exchange, you can do so by following the below steps:
  1. 1.
    Disconnect your wallet from Bluefin v2
    ​
    ​
  2. 2.
    Within the Sui wallet, disconnect the account that is connected to the Bluefin exchange
    ​
  3. 3.
    Head back to trade.bluefin.io and connect your SUI wallet again
    You should now have the option to connect a different account. Choose the other account and select “Connect." Once you complete the onboarding process, you'll find that your new account is now connected to Bluefin v2.

How to get USDC on Sui

Perpetual contracts on Bluefin v2 are collateralized using the USDCeth token (i.e., USDC bridged from Ethereum). In order to trade on the Bluefin v2 exchange, you will need a supported wallet and funds to be used as collateral. You can either bridge funds from another network to the Sui network or on-ramp directly onto Sui.

Bridging from another network

If you already have funds on another network, you can bridge them to Sui using Portal by Wormhole*.
Only Bridge USDC from Ethereum
Currently, Bluefin v2 only supports USDCeth as its margining token. Note: If you did not redeem the tokens as mentioned in the last step and no longer have access to the transfer page, you can redeem your tokens here.

On-ramp directly onto Sui

You can buy tokens on the Sui network using an on-ramp provider such as Transak* or Moonpay*. These services allow users to purchase cryptocurrencies using a variety of payment methods, including credit/debit cards and bank transfers. Please be advised that these services typically involve a degree of KYC (know your customer) verification.
At present, these services only allow users to buy Sui tokens on the Sui network. You can always swap Sui tokens for USDCeth using protocols such as Cetus* or Turbos*.

Depositing funds on Bluefin v2

  • Connect wallet to Bluefin v2​
  • Complete the onboarding flow if you haven't already done so
  • Click Deposit on the top right of the screen
  • Enter the amount you wish to deposit
  • Confirm in the Sui wallet extension pop-up
