name: Bankr Agent - Token Trading
description: This skill should be used when the user asks to "buy crypto", "sell tokens", "swap ETH", "trade on Base", "exchange tokens", "cross-chain swap", "bridge tokens", "convert ETH to WETH", or any token trading operation. Provides guidance on supported chains, amount formats, and swap operations.

# Bankr Token Trading

Execute token trades and swaps across multiple blockchains.

## Supported Chains

| Chain | Native Token |
|-------|--------------|
| Base | ETH |
| Polygon | MATIC |
| Ethereum | ETH |
| Unichain | ETH |
| Solana | SOL |

## Amount Formats

| Format | Example | Description |
|--------|---------|-------------|
| USD | `$50` | Dollar amount to spend |
| Percentage | `50%` | Percentage of your balance |
| Exact | `0.1 ETH` | Specific token amount |

## Prompt Examples

**Same-chain swaps:**
- "Swap 0.1 ETH for USDC on Base"
- "Buy $50 of BNKR on Base"
- "Sell 50% of my ETH holdings"

**Cross-chain swaps:**
- "Bridge 0.5 ETH from Ethereum to Base"
- "Move 100 USDC from Polygon to Solana"

**ETH/WETH conversion:**
- "Convert 0.1 ETH to WETH"
- "Unwrap 0.5 WETH to ETH"

## Chain Selection

- If no chain specified, Bankr selects the most appropriate chain
- Base is preferred for most operations due to low fees
- Cross-chain routes are automatically optimized
- Include chain name in prompt to specify: "Buy ETH on Polygon"

## Slippage

- Default slippage tolerance is applied automatically
- For volatile tokens, Bankr adjusts slippage as needed
- If slippage is exceeded, the transaction fails safely

## Common Issues

| Issue | Resolution |
|-------|------------|
| Insufficient balance | Reduce amount or add funds |
| Token not found | Check token symbol/address |
| High slippage | Try smaller amounts |
| Network congestion | Wait and retry |

Overview

This skill helps users execute token trades, swaps, bridges, and ETH/WETH conversions across multiple chains using Bankr's multi-chain DeFi infrastructure. It guides supported chains, accepted amount formats, slippage behavior, and how cross-chain routing is chosen. Use it whenever you want to buy, sell, swap, bridge, or convert tokens.

How this skill works

The skill inspects the user’s intent for trading operations (buy, sell, swap, bridge, convert) and parses amount formats (USD, percentage, exact token amounts). It recommends a chain when none is specified, prefers Base for low fees, and automatically optimizes same-chain and cross-chain routes. Slippage tolerance is applied by default and adjusted for volatility; transactions fail safely if slippage limits are exceeded.

When to use it

  • Buy or sell tokens: “buy crypto”, “sell tokens”
  • Swap tokens on the same chain: “swap ETH for USDC”
  • Cross-chain transfers: “bridge tokens”, “cross-chain swap”
  • Convert ETH/WETH: “convert ETH to WETH” or “unwrap WETH”
  • Specify chain-specific trades: “trade on Base” or “buy on Polygon”

Best practices

  • Specify the chain in your request to guarantee the selected network (e.g., Base, Polygon, Ethereum, Solana, Unichain).
  • Use clear amount formats: USD (e.g., $50), percentage (e.g., 50%), or exact token amounts (e.g., 0.1 ETH).
  • Prefer Base for low fees unless you need a different chain for assets or liquidity.
  • For volatile tokens, set a slightly higher slippage tolerance or split large orders into smaller trades.
  • Verify token symbol or contract address if the token is not found.

Example use cases

  • Swap 0.1 ETH for USDC on Base
  • Buy $50 of BNKR on Base
  • Sell 50% of my ETH holdings
  • Bridge 0.5 ETH from Ethereum to Base
  • Move 100 USDC from Polygon to Solana
  • Convert 0.1 ETH to WETH or unwrap 0.5 WETH to ETH

FAQ

What chains are supported?

Supported chains include Base, Polygon, Ethereum, Unichain, and Solana; native tokens are ETH, MATIC, or SOL as appropriate.

How should I specify amounts?

You can use USD (e.g., $50), percentage of your balance (e.g., 50%), or exact token amounts (e.g., 0.1 ETH).

What if I don’t specify a chain?

Bankr will select the most appropriate chain, typically preferring Base for lower fees and optimized routes.
