Multichain Deployment estimator
The Multi-chain deployment cost estimator helps you plan native token needed for gas across many chains, using live gas and price data where available, and optionally start a LI.FI bridge from your current wallet chain after reviewing a route.
Section: Gas rows (based on mainnet tx gas units)
Add row
Adds another line with blank label and gas units.
Contract / tx label
Free text so you remember what the gas is for (e.g. “Create splitter”).
Gas units
Whole number — estimated gas used for that operation (not gwei). Example default row: Create splitter = 1140000.
Remove
Deletes that row.
Total gas units
Sum of all rows — used as the multiplier against gas price on each target chain.
Section: Source wallet summary (boxed area)
Shown for the connected wallet on the chain the wallet is currently on (this is the source chain for LI.FI quotes).
Chain
Name and chain ID of the wallet’s current network.
Icon
Chain logo when available.
Deploy Wallet
Your 0x… address or “not connected” if disconnected.
Native balance
Approximate native balance on that chain (e.g. ETH), formatted to several decimal places.
Section: Target chains
Select chains / Hide chain selector
Toggles the checklist of networks.
Select all
Checks every listed chain (disabled if the list is empty).
Deselect all
Clears all checkboxes (disabled if none selected).
Fetch live gas + USD
Refreshes gas tiers and native USD inputs for selected chains from APIs / RPCs. Shows progress text while running.
N selected
Count of chains currently checked.
Per-chain checkbox
Include this chain in the estimate table. Shows logo, name, and #chainId.
Loading / error lines
Status while chain list loads or if the chain list request fails.
Section: Estimated deploy wallet funding
Gas tier
standard
Default; uses the “standard” tier from the gas API (or RPC fallback) where applicable.
fast / fastest
Higher urgency tiers when the API exposes them; updates estimates for chains already loaded.
Buffer multiplier
Number input (min 1, step 0.1)
Multiplies estimated gas cost to add slack (default 2). Helper shows current Xx.
Results table
Chain
Logo + network name.
Gas price (gwei)
Editable; filled from Fetch live gas + USD when possible. You can override manually.
Native price (USD)
Editable USD per 1 native unit; filled from live data when possible.
Estimated native needed
~ total gas units × gas price (with buffer), in native units for that chain.
Estimated USD needed
Native needed × native USD (when USD is set).
Bridge action
Per-row bridging UI (see below).
Table footer
Total estimated USD needed
Sum of Estimated USD needed across visible rows (when values are valid numbers).
Bridge action column (per row)
Behavior depends on the row’s chain:
Funding on-chain (not routed via LI.FI)
This chain is not bridged through LI.FI in the app (e.g. some networks like PulseChain). Fund that chain’s deploy wallet yourself.
Same as source chain
Your wallet is already on this chain — no cross-chain bridge action from the app for that row.
Review & bridge
Opens a LI.FI quote → Review LI.FI route modal, then Proceed to wallet to execute. Disabled if not connected or a route is already loading for that row.
Running…
Quote or route step in progress.
LI.FI tracking ID: abc12345…
Shortened route identifier for reference.
Route: …
Short text summary of steps (tools / types).
Green success text
Bridge / route completed successfully (message from the app).
Red error text
User-friendly error (e.g. cancelled in wallet, route not submitted).
Review LI.FI route modal
Title
Review LI.FI route
Destination · ID
Target chain name and truncated route id.
Steps list
Each Step N: bridge/swap tool name, type, and fromChainId -> toChainId.
Cancel
Closes modal without executing.
Proceed to wallet
Continues to wallet signing for the prepared route.
