Technical Note on Asset Types

While the request was to convert to "ETH," decentralized exchanges on Layer 2 networks like Base typically utilize Wrapped Ether (WETH) for the swap process. WETH is a tokenized version of ETH that conforms to the ERC-20 standard, allowing it to be traded directly against other tokens like USDC while maintaining a 1:1 value peg with native ETH [Source: https://ethereum.org/].

Conclusion

The $2.00 USDC swap to ETH on Base is complete and verified on-chain. The transaction was executed at an ETH price of approximately $2,070.65. No further action is required for this conversion.
