How to Sell a Token
Selling on onchain.cc works the same way as buying — your trade routes through Carbium for best execution and settles on-chain in seconds.
Steps
1. Go to Portfolio View or search the token in the terminal
Open Portfolio View to see all tokens currently held in your connected wallet. Select the token you want to sell. Alternatively, search for the token directly in the search bar and navigate to the swap panel.
2. Select Sell
In the swap panel, switch to the Sell side. The input will now show the token you're selling, and the output will default to the chain's native token (SOL on Solana, ETH on Ethereum, etc.). You can change the output token if you want to swap into something else.
3. Choose the amount to sell
Use the quick-select buttons to sell a portion of your position:
25%
A quarter of your balance
50%
Half your balance
75%
Three quarters of your balance
100%
Your entire balance
Or enter a specific amount manually. The estimated output amount updates in real time based on current liquidity and Carbium routing.
NOTE: Sell action not working as intended, insuficient gas despite having SOL tokens. Also token amount is reflected in USD value using quick amounts buttons.
4. Review the trade
Before confirming, check:
Output amount — estimated tokens you'll receive
Price impact — how much your sell will move the price
Slippage tolerance — same rules apply as buying; 1–3% is a reasonable default
5. Click Sell and confirm in your wallet
Click Sell. Your wallet will prompt you to review and approve the transaction. Confirm to submit.
After the Trade
Success: Once confirmed, the tokens leave your wallet and your output-token balance updates. Check Portfolio View to see your updated holdings. The transaction hash is available on the confirmation screen for on-chain verification on that chain's block explorer.
Info: You need the chain's native token for gas — even when selling.
Every on-chain transaction — including sells — requires a small amount of the chain's native token (SOL on Solana, ETH on Ethereum, etc.) to pay network fees. This is separate from the 0.15% platform fee. If your native-token balance is zero on the chain you're selling on, the transaction will fail. Keep a small reserve at all times.
